Taxi from O Cebreiro

Tony Maguire · 2024-10-25T17:38:10+0200

We are finishing up a stage in O Cebreiro next year. Looking at bus schedule it looks like we will need a taxi or private transfer from O Cebriero to SDC airport. Having looked at some transfer companies its anywhere between €200 - €250 for 4 of us. But I came across a site, europe.cab, that will do it for €106. Has any here ever heard of this site or used them.

Looks very cheap just checked it very interesting.

The Google reviews on their website connect to this company: https://www.google.com/maps/place/A...try=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTAyMy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw==

That company's website: https://airportstaxitransfers.com/

Edit: the lack of information on europe.cab makes me very suspicious but I don't have personal experience with them

Tony, thats a 150km trip at a minimum of €1/km. That offer looks to be too good to be true.

If you are looking for alternatives then a bit more info would help. When, exactly, next year? Weekday / Weekend? AM/PM. There are more regular buses from Pedrafita do Cebreiro than there are from O Ceb itself. You might find a route via Lugo gives you more options than trying to go direct or even to Santiago and a cab from there.

Otherwise, for that trip, €250 split four ways seems pretty reasonable

Sure, I just wanted to point out that the reviews on the europe.cab website seem to related to a different company.
Do what you will with that information.

Well spotted!

europe.cab is a highly suspicious website. Check them on Whois and Trustpilot. Plus no phone number, no email address, no company address, and as far as I can see they did not even bother to fake their Terms and Conditions. And the copyright with "Inc." as the corporate identifyer: © 2024 Europe.cab, Inc. Sure.

Thanks for that....ive looked into them a bit now and 1 site says the website is only up for 4 days. I think we will give them a miss

agree with all "suspicious" findings. when the majority of the polled companies average about the same (give or take €50) and someone comes in at 1/2 of that price - my red flags go off
