Nelson Mandela International Airport (RAI) to Plateau transfers
TransfersCO runs reliable, fixed-price private transfers between Nelson Mandela International Airport (RAI) and Plateau in Praia. Your chauffeur meets you in arrivals with a name board and drives you straight to Plateau — one all-in price agreed when you book, so there are no meters and no surprises whatever the traffic. No meters and no real-time surge. A small number of destinations carry a published seasonal uplift in peak months — where it applies it is already inside the price you are quoted, and it never changes after you book.
Plateau is in Cabo Verde, and Nelson Mandela International Airport (RAI) is the arrival gateway most travellers use to reach Plateau, one of Praia's most-requested drop-offs, a routed 120 km (75 miles) that typically runs to about 1 hr 30 min. From the moment you clear the Nelson Mandela International Airport arrivals hall, your vetted chauffeur handles the bags, the route and the parking, all inside the €240 you were quoted — there's no separate airport surcharge and no fare meter ticking over while you wait.
We track your inbound flight into RAI, so a delayed landing simply shifts your pickup time — your driver is already watching the board, and the first 45 minutes of waiting are free. Heading the other way, the same Plateau → RAI run is offered at the identical fixed price, which makes the return leg easy to lock in when you book. Every fare to Plateau is fully inclusive: VAT, tolls and parking are built in, the vehicle is managed and insured, and you can follow the trip live or reach support on web or WhatsApp at any hour.
