- What is included in the quoted price, and can fuel, tolls, border charges, parking, waiting time or luggage create an extra payment?
- What luggage is accepted for this service, where will it be stored, and what happens if a bag is oversized, fragile or delayed?
- Who is responsible for the final handover in Abomey, and which working telephone number and fallback meeting point should I save?
Tickets, identification and booking proof
