Pros: Safe driver, Kath's driving experience showed. Cons: Maybe have water available or stop for a break. Tips: Make sure to double check ticket information to ensure name shows on the ticket and that the booking is as desire. I did not check, and there was an issue on the return which the driver helped resolve.
