The newest price comparison mentioned about $150 for a private car and roughly $150–250 for an 8-seat minibus. For a group, that works out cheaper than paying a per-person transport rate.

Compared with shared or private transfers, the city bus is treated as the fixed-price, lowest-cost option. If you plan to keep moving around on your own after arrival, the bus generally works out cheaper than hiring private transport.

Another practical rule of thumb from the discussion: for two travelers, a private car can already be better value than paying a per-person rate. The example used about $90 per person, so for two people that exceeds the quoted $150 car price.
