The Jerusalem - Beit Shemesh Connection
Beit Shemesh has grown rapidly into a major hub, particularly popular with English-speaking immigrants (Anglos). The connection between Beit Shemesh and Jerusalem is strong, with daily commuting and frequent family visits. However, the travel logistics can be tricky for larger families.
The "Large Family" Transport Challenge
It is not uncommon in Beit Shemesh to see families with 4, 5, or more children. Standard public transport isn't built for a family traveling with strollers, diaper bags, and energetic kids. Taking two separate cars is expensive and environmentally unfriendly. This is where Almaxpress Large Taxi Service shines.
Why Our Van Service?
- Capacity: A large taxi seats up to 6 passengers and a van up to 10, plus luggage. This means one vehicle for the whole family.
- Direct Routes: We pick you up from your neighborhood in Ramat Beit Shemesh (Aleph, Bet, Gimmel) and drop you anywhere in Jerusalem – be it the central bus station, Har Hotzvim, or the Old City.
- Safety: We prioritize safety. Child seats are available on request at booking, ₪50 per seat, subject to availability, and our drivers are experienced professionals.
Ideal for Events
Planning a Bar Mitzvah at the Kotel? A wedding in Talpiot? Don't stress about how Grandma will get there or who is driving the cousins. Book a van with a driver by the hour, arranged in advance, including unlimited driving and waiting at your stops, at an hourly price agreed when you book, with an 8-hour minimum; otherwise, waiting is charged per minute at the official meter's time rate. We can perform a "shuttle" service, ensuring all your guests arrive on time and return home safely.
The Scenic Route vs. The Highway
Usually, we take Route 1 and Route 38. It's fast and direct. However, traffic can be heavy. Our drivers are also skilled at navigating the scenic mountain routes (via Nes Harim) if traffic on the main highway is at a standstill, ensuring you get to your destination as quickly as possible.
FAQ
Q: Can I book a regular standing order for my commute?
A: Yes, we take standing orders for daily commutes, and business customers can receive one monthly invoice.
Q: Is there room for a double stroller?
A: Yes, our trunks are spacious enough to accommodate double strollers without needing to fold them down completely in some models.
Conclusion
Skip the bus and the convoy of cars. Book a large taxi with Almaxpress and enjoy a peaceful family drive.
