Yes. Your vehicle is reserved exclusively for your group. We do not combine unrelated customers.
Send your preferred experience and date. FPB checks availability manually and aims to reply within 24 hours. Selecting a date does not guarantee a reservation.

The remaining 80% is paid on the service day to the operator providing the service, by cash or card.
For cancellation at least 48 hours before the service, the 20% deposit is refundable. With less than 48 hours or in case of no-show, the deposit is forfeited; the remaining 80% is not charged.
One free date change is permitted when requested at least 24 hours before the service. The new date remains subject to availability.
