Flexible itinerary:You can freely change routes and stops based on your time, interests, and energy levels, experiencing a deeper travel experience.

Operating license:Must be a tourism commercial vehicle with a road transport permit, not a private car or ride-hailing vehicle.
Vehicle condition:Relatively new, regularly maintained, and clean interior.
Basic insurance:At least includes compulsory traffic insurance, third-party liability insurance, and carrier liability insurance (recommended coverage of no less than 1 million yuan).
2. Confirm driver qualifications and service
Professional qualifications:Driver must hold a passenger transport qualification certificate issued by the transport authority and have years of long-distance driving experience.
Service attitude:Driver should be punctual, polite, familiar with local conditions, and able to provide reasonable travel suggestions.
3. Beware of low-price traps
Quotes significantly below market price often carry risks like hidden fees, forced consumption, or mid-trip price hikes. It’s recommended to compare multiple options and choose a regular service provider with reasonable prices and clear terms.
