Transportation from Airport: De Palm?

[nycMike]

Has anyone used De Palm tours to get from airport to hotel?
I see you can book ahead on their website, and it's cheaper than the hotel.
But just worried the wait could be long and then stopping at many hotels could be long as well.
If anyone has advice/personal experience, that would be great.

I was told by Westin that taxi from airport would be $25 minimum. Aren't there set rates for taxis?

Thanks

Taxi's have set rates. I suggest you take a taxi vs the depalm bus, you will stop at every single hotel down the island to drop. Use Bully for instead.

How many people in your group. Taxi's are per taxi, not per person. De Palm transfers are per person. If you are 2 or more persons, than a taxi is cheaper. If you are staying at the Westin, De Palm bus will be stopping at other hotels along the way to drop-off people and their luggage. This takes time. Even when I go alone to Aruba, if I don't have a rental car waiting, I always take a taxi.
