We need to get from PTY to Pedasi. Our friend told us of a shuttle for $30. Could you provide with departure days for Feb. 6 or 7? Thanks
Hello!! You can contact this number and he will provide you the info and actual schedule of the shuttle. However, It's usually around $50. You also have the option of using public transport, will take a little bit more time but a cheaper price.Answered on 22 January 2021
