What makes Flexryde Shuttle Services different?
Simply put, Flexryde offers the best of both worlds: professional enough to be trusted, experienced and dependable, yet personal enough to care about every journey. We take the time to understand your individual requirements, special arrangements and operational needs, while providing responsive support before, during and after your service.
With Flexryde, you travel with professional drivers, quality vehicles and a dedicated operations team focused on safety, comfort and reliability. Whether we are supporting a DMC, tour operator, corporate client or private traveller, every booking receives the same hands-on attention and commitment to service excellence.
How does Flexryde Shuttle Services charge?
Flexryde generally charges per vehicle, not per person. Our vehicles are selected according to the number of passengers, luggage requirements, route, and type of service required.
Rates are based on factors such as vehicle category, distance, duration, itinerary and operating requirements. This means you can travel as a group without paying a separate fare for every passenger, provided the vehicle’s legal seating and luggage capacity is not exceeded.
For private transfers, chauffeur services, group transport and touring logistics, we provide a clear quotation based on the complete transport requirement rather than a simple per-person rate.
What optional extras does Flexryde Shuttle Services offer?
To make your journey more convenient, Flexryde offers a range of optional extras tailored to your transport requirements.
- Baby and child seats can be arranged on request, subject to availability.
- Luggage trailers are complimentary where required and subject to availability.
- Additional stops can be added to your journey and will be quoted based on the route and location.
- Waiting time can be arranged when you need the vehicle and driver to remain at your disposal. Additional waiting charges may apply depending on the service and duration.
Please let us know your requirements when booking so we can prepare the most suitable vehicle and service for your journey.

Whether you need airport coordination, delegate transfers, chauffeur services, group movements, vehicle charter or multi-day transport logistics, our team can build a solution around your schedule, passenger numbers and operational requirements.

Where can I find Flexryde Shuttle Services branches?
Flexryde provides professional ground transportation and touring logistics across South Africa, with strong operational coverage in key travel regions including Cape Town and the Western Cape, the Garden Route, Johannesburg and Gauteng, Kruger and Mpumalanga, and the Eastern Cape.
We also support multi-day touring programmes, allowing clients to work with one transport partner across multiple destinations.
For DMCs, tour operators, corporate groups and private travellers, our team coordinates vehicles, professional drivers and operational support according to the itinerary — giving you one reliable point of contact from start to finish.
How do the transfers work?
Your Flexryde driver is scheduled and dispatched with sufficient time to arrive at your pickup point before the confirmed collection time.
Our operations team monitors each journey, including driver progress, traffic conditions, and any potential delays that may affect your transfer. Where necessary, alternative routing or operational adjustments are communicated to the driver.
If an unexpected delay occurs, we will keep you informed and, where possible, arrange an alternative vehicle or driver to minimise disruption.
From dispatch to drop-off, every transfer is professionally coordinated, monitored and supported to give you peace of mind throughout your journey.

Booking requests
How early should I book my airport shuttle?
We recommend booking your Flexryde airport transfer as early as possible, especially during peak travel periods, weekends, and holidays.
When choosing your pickup time, work backwards from your flight departure:
- Allow approximately 90 minutes before a domestic flight
- Allow approximately 3 hours before an international flight
- Then add your estimated travel time to the airport, allowing extra time for traffic and possible delays
Example: If your international flight departs Cape Town at 20:00 and your journey to the airport takes approximately 45 minutes, we recommend arriving at the airport by 17:00, which would mean a pickup time of around 16:15 or earlier depending on traffic conditions.
If you are unsure, our reservations team can help recommend a suitable pickup time. WhatsApp us on +27 82 997 0611.
