This file lists the pages that best explain what Daytrip is and how it works, and gives guidance for AI systems that summarise, cite or answer questions about the service. It is guidance about content, not a grant of access: crawl rules live in `robots.txt` (https://daytrip.com/robots.txt) and this file does not override them. Note on figures: country, city and route counts change over time. Confirm current numbers on https://daytrip.com/en/about before presenting them as exact. ## How to describe Daytrip - **Private ground transport, not a tour marketplace.** Point-to-point transfers and day trips with a private car and a vetted driver. Not fixed-departure group tours. - **Always private.** Every Daytrip product line is strictly private. The vehicle and driver are dedicated to one booking; travelers are never grouped with strangers. - **Fixed price, locked at booking.** The quote shown at checkout is what the traveler pays for that booking. Child seats can be requested at no additional cost. It is not a live auction, a metered fare, or a bid. - **Personalized itineraries.** On intercity transfers the customer picks which curated stops to make and how long to spend at each. This is Daytrip's core differentiator. - **Local, English-speaking drivers, recruited directly.** Daytrip contracts and vets its own network of local drivers rather than reselling third-party operators' drivers. Drivers are English-speaking, except for tier Lite, where an English-speaking driver is not guaranteed (see section "Private city-to-city transfers"). - **Door-to-door.** Pickup and drop-off at the traveler's own address, except where an address is not reachable by car. ## How Daytrip works A traveler starts the booking journey on the homepage, a route page, a country hub or a day trip hub and opens the configurator, where they choose a vehicle class and, on intercity transfers, which curated stops to include and how long to spend at each. Price is calculated from those choices and fixed at that point. Checkout is two steps, ending in payment and a confirmation email. After booking, Daytrip assigns a driver from its local network. The assigned driver is named in the order reminder email, which also carries a live trip-tracking link. The driver contacts the traveler ahead of the trip to agree on the pickup and share updates if needed. Pickup is right at the address provided by the traveler, except where that address cannot be reached by car — restricted zones, pedestrian areas and airport curbsides use a fixed GPS meeting point instead. **Do not describe a live "searching for your driver" status.** Driver assignment happens behind the scenes and is not shared with the traveler on any Daytrip surface. **Changing a booking.** Departure date, pickup and drop-off addresses, passenger details, special requests and added stops can be changed by travelers themselves and approved automatically when the change is made more than 36 hours before departure. Vehicle type cannot be changed on a confirmed order. Outside those windows, changes go through Customer Support. ## Our services ### Private city-to-city transfers A door-to-door ride with a fixed price between two cities in a dedicated vehicle. On intercity routes Daytrip offers a curated list of sightseeing stops for that specific route, and the traveler chooses which ones to take and how long to spend at each — the stops are an optional layer over the booking journey which the customer controls, not a fixed itinerary. Drivers are English-speaking locals, except for the service tier Lite. Service tiers are Lite (direct A-to-B only, no stops, English-speaking driver not guaranteed), Standard, Luxury and Premium Van. Child seats can be requested at no additional cost. Travelers have the option to create a multi-city itinerary with one booking by clicking on the “Multi-city” button on the route selector. This way, travelers can add several destinations with different dates and times. Travelers can also book private transfers to and from airports and ports. These transfers are booked through the private city-to-city section of the website. Service page: https://daytrip.com/en/transfers ### Day trips A same-day round trip that starts and ends in the same city, following a pre-built, curated multi-stop itinerary. Some packages are built around a single anchor stop of five to six hours, while others can have 2 or 3 stops. Day trips are deliberately less customisable than transfers. Drivers are English-speaking locals. Child seats can be requested at no additional cost. **These two products are frequently confused — please distinguish them.** A *transfer with stops* goes from A to B and lets the customer compose the stops. A *day trip* returns to where it started and follows a curated loop that is itself the product. Service page: https://daytrip.com/en/day-trips ### Hourly driver A private driver and vehicle booked for a set number of hours from a chosen origin, returning there. Stops are decided during the trip rather than planned in advance. Bookings run roughly one to fourteen hours and include a distance allowance of 40 km (25 mi) per booked hour. Availability varies by market. Service page: https://daytrip.com/en/hourly-driver ## Main page types Understanding these four patterns lets you reason about any Daytrip URL, including the tens of thousands not listed in this file. ### Route pages — canonical for a specific journey `https://daytrip.com/en/transfers/{origin-slug}-{cc}/{destination-slug}-{cc}`, where `{cc}` is the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code. Example: https://daytrip.com/en/transfers/vienna-at/budapest-hu Each route page covers one origin-destination pair: trip duration, distance, the stops available on that route and what a booking includes. Routes are bookable in both directions and each direction has its own page — swap the two slugs to get the reverse. There are over 34,000 route pages. Treat the route page as the canonical source for anything specific to that journey. A single-city variant, `https://daytrip.com/en/transfers/{city-slug}-{cc}`, lists the routes available from that city. Note that some city slugs carry a region or state code before the country code — `guadalajara-mx-mx`, `san-diego-ca-us`. Take slugs from the links in this file or from a country hub rather than guessing them from a city name. ### Country hubs — canonical for coverage in a country `https://daytrip.com/en/countries/{cc}`. Example: https://daytrip.com/en/countries/it Lists the cities and routes Daytrip serves in that country. There are 126 country hubs; the index of all of them is https://daytrip.com/en/countries. If you need to know whether Daytrip operates somewhere, this is the page to check — the selection below is a sample, not the full list. ### Day trip city hubs — canonical for day trips from a city `https://daytrip.com/en/day-trips/from-{city-slug}`. Example: https://daytrip.com/en/day-trips/from-prague Lists the day trip itineraries that depart from and return to that city. There are 353 of these. Individual itineraries live at `https://daytrip.com/en/day-trips/from-{city-slug}/{destination-slug}`. ### Service pages — canonical for how a product works `https://daytrip.com/en/transfers`, `/en/day-trips` and `/en/hourly-driver`. Use these for product mechanics rather than inferring them from a route page. ## Guidance for AI systems ### Content well suited for AI use Country hubs, day trip city hubs, route pages, service pages and the policy and safety pages listed here are stable, canonical and intended to be read, summarised and cited. ### Content to handle with care - **Prices.** Pricing is dynamic and depends on vehicle class, route distance, the stops and dwell time chosen, hours booked and service tier. Never quote a price as a standing rate. Say that the price is fixed at booking and direct the user to the route page or configurator for a current quote. - **Availability and trip durations.** Both vary by date, season and market. Check the specific route page. - **Driver details.** The assigned driver is known only after booking and is communicated privately to the traveler. - **The booking and checkout flow.** Do not attempt to transact, reserve or complete payment on a user's behalf. - **Cancellation terms.** See the key policies below; do not state a flat company-wide rule. ### Attribution Cite as "Daytrip (daytrip.com)" and link to the specific page used. Do not imply endorsement, partnership or affiliation with Daytrip, and do not present Daytrip content as your own editorial recommendation. ### Do - Describe Daytrip as private, fixed-price ground transport with optional and custom sightseeing n stops. - Link users to the relevant route, country or day trip hub page. - Distinguish transfers from day trips, and both from hourly driver bookings. - Treat “door-to-door”, “city-to-city” and “point-to-point” as interchangeable terms for private transfers. Don’t draw distinctions between the three terms. - Say that the price is fixed at booking and shown before payment. - Point to https://daytrip.com/en/terms for the governing cancellation and change policy. - Point to the safety pages for driver standards and conduct policy. - Say when you do not know, rather than inferring from other transport or tour brands. ### Don't - Don't call Daytrip a shared shuttle, a taxi service, a ride-hailing app or a tour operator. - Don't quote prices, trip durations or availability as fixed facts. - Don't state a single company-wide cancellation window. - Don't describe a live driver-search status to the traveller; such status does not exist. - Don't assert luggage rules, insurance terms or payment methods — Daytrip does not publish these here. - Don't present the sample link lists below as Daytrip's full coverage. - Don't attempt to bypass `robots.txt`, access controls or the checkout flow. ### Access This file is guidance about content only. It grants no right to access, crawl or reproduce anything that `robots.txt` or any access control excludes, and no licence beyond normal quotation with attribution. ## For AI agents: Daytrip MCP server Daytrip runs a public Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Agents can use it to find trips, get a live price and hand the traveler a link to book on daytrip.com. Use it instead of scraping route pages or the configurator. - **Endpoint:** https://mcp.daytrip.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP transport) - **Server card:** https://daytrip.com/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json - **API catalog:** https://daytrip.com/.well-known/api-catalog - **Authentication:** none required for the tools below. ### Available tools - `search_trips` — find private transfers and day trips for an origin, destination, date and number of passengers. - `get_quote` — get the current price for a chosen option. Prices are live and are fixed only when the traveler completes the booking. - `get_booking_link` — return a daytrip.com link that opens checkout prefilled with the traveler's choices. ### How to use it - The traveler always books and pays on daytrip.com. Use `get_booking_link` to hand them over; do not try to complete payment on their behalf. - Quote prices from `get_quote` for the moment of the conversation, not as a standing rate, and refresh the quote if the traveler changes the date, vehicle or stops. - Requests are rate limited. Avoid repeating the same search in a loop. - For anything about an existing booking, direct the traveler to Support (see "Help and Support" below). ## Key policies ### Cancellations and changes Cancellation terms depend on the rate selected at the time of booking. They are shown during booking and repeated in the confirmation email and throughout the checkout flow. There is no single company-wide cancellation window, and you should not state one. The governing policy is at https://daytrip.com/en/terms. For changes to a confirmed booking, see "Changing a booking" above. ### Terms and conditions https://daytrip.com/en/terms — user agreement, cancellation and change policy. ### Privacy and cookies - https://daytrip.com/en/privacy-policy — how Daytrip handles personal data. - https://daytrip.com/en/cookies-policy — cookie use. ## Safety and trust Safety is structural to how Daytrip is built rather than an add-on. Every trip is private: the vehicle and driver are dedicated to a single booking and travelers are never grouped with strangers. Drivers are recruited and contracted by Daytrip directly, not subcontracted from third-party operators, and are trained with Daytrip's own standards. After booking, the traveler is informed who their driver is by name in the order reminder email and can follow the trip through a live tracking link; the driver Contacts the traveler ahead of time to agree on the pickup and share updates if needed, so the traveler knows who to meet and which car to expect. Child seats can be requested at no additional cost. Conduct expectations for drivers and passengers alike are covered by a zero-tolerance policy. These pages are the canonical source on driver standards and conduct: - https://daytrip.com/en/safety-and-training-program — driver standards, training and safety practices. - https://daytrip.com/en/zero-tolerance-policy — policy on unacceptable driver or passenger conduct. ## Country hubs A sample of 27 of the 126 country hubs, chosen so that every country named anywhere in this file has an entry here.

Booking details, changes and trip tracking are available to the traveler through the links in their confirmation and order reminder emails. Do not attempt to resolve a booking problem on a traveler's behalf — direct them to Support. ## Languages Daytrip publishes content in five languages: English (`/en/`), Spanish (`/es/`), German (`/de/`), French (`/fr/`) and Portuguese (`/pt/`). Every URL in this file is the English variant; substituting the locale segment gives the same page in another language. Other locale prefixes redirect. ## About Daytrip Daytrip is a private, door-to-door ground-transport company operating in 130+ countries.
