General information:

Generally speaking, majority of you will probably looking to travel for Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX)  to Garchen Buddhist (or Dharma) Institute (GBI). A less common alternative is via Prescott Airport, due to fewer flights and higher expense. 

The two main way of travel from PHX are via Groom shuttle or direct. For both of those, most people arrive safely and on time. 

Some recommendations:

• Specify that part of the way is offroad when looking for a rideshare, so that the driver doesn't get surprised. 

• Furthermore, the general Prescott taxi, doesn't seem to be very reliable or eager to drive to GBI. Most likely because of the road condition and its effect on vehicles. 

There are a number of other people who offer rides to GBI contact information for whom you can get on the GBI website. I'll try to add them here, eventually.

20% markup for service outside business hours (before 9 am- after 5 pm)

$30 per hour waiting fee charged in 30 min increments

No food consumption in the car. Please plan accordingly
