Where coverage is verified

Coverage comes from the coverage records in Aurum's partner database, which list the countries, places and airports each provider is verified for. 23 providers are recorded as covering destinations worldwide: Viator, Welcome Pickups, GetYourGuide, Kiwitaxi, GetTransfer, Klook, Intui, Suntransfers.com, Stay22, Booking.com, Trip.com Hotels and Expedia and others. A provider is shown on a place page only where its coverage of that place, its airport or its country is on record.

How to compare airport transfers

  • Check whether tolls, parking and airport fees are inside the quoted price.
  • If you land outside daytime hours, read what the provider says about night pickups.
  • Compare the cancellation deadline with your flight's own change rules, so both can still be changed together.

How to compare places to stay

  • Read what the rate includes, such as breakfast, an all-inclusive plan, parking or airport pickup.
  • Find out whether you pay now or at the property, and in which currency.
  • Scores are averages over time, so read the newest reviews for the current picture.

How to compare tours and activities

  • Compare a guided tour with entry-only tickets for the same attraction, since they are different products.
  • Check the inclusions list, since entry tickets, pickup and food are not always part of the headline price.
  • Pickup zones are limited on many tours, so confirm yours is covered or note the meeting point.

How to compare car rental

  • If more than one person will drive, see what the company charges and needs.
  • Check where the desk is and its opening hours against your arrival time.
  • Read the rules for one-way rentals and for taking the car across a border.

Before you book

  • Last-minute bookings may not be confirmed at once, so leave time.
  • Accessibility varies; the provider can confirm what it offers.
  • Take screenshots of the offer and terms at the time of booking.
  • Prices on provider sites change with dates and demand, so compare on the same day for the same dates.
  • Whatever a summary says, the conditions at checkout govern your booking.

Who runs the tours listed here?

Where do I see the price for travel services?

No. Aurum shows no prices for travel services. Each provider shows its own price for your dates on its own site, and that price is the one that applies.

What if I need to cancel a booking?

Contact the provider you booked with; its terms for your offer decide whether and until when a change is free. Aurum has no access to bookings.

When is the best time to compare travel services?

Providers release and price their own availability. Look once your travel dates are firm, and read how late each offer can be cancelled.

What is the Where line on each card?

It is the provider's verified coverage as recorded in Aurum's partner database: a country, named places or airports, or worldwide. It is not a promise that every address inside that area is served, so confirm yours with the provider.

A provider I expected is not listed. Why?

Either it is not one of Aurum's partners or its coverage here has not been recorded. You can still use the checks on this page with any provider.

Is this page advice?

No. It is information, not a recommendation. Your own needs decide, the provider confirms the specifics, and professional questions belong with a qualified adviser.

Why are these travel services providers shown and not others?

A provider is listed from Aurum's partner database when it has an active link and coverage on record for the page. Where no coverage is on record for a place, no provider is shown for it.

Does booking through a link here cost more?

The links here are paid, which means the provider may pay Aurum a commission, and your price stays the same. Prices, availability and terms are always the provider's, shown on its own site.

Who do I contact about a booking?

Changes and questions go to the provider, which is the party holding your booking. Aurum holds no bookings.
