What students say themselves.

From pulling away to the motorway: this is what they wrote on Google.

“The instructor got straight to work with realistic traffic situations, including complex roundabouts, narrow city streets and practising motorway on- and off-ramps. Every correction had a clear reason.”

AmarnathGoogle · November 2025

“The team at Amigos helped me from the very start to the very end. […] Just passed, with compliments from the examiner.”

MarieGoogle · November 2025

MichanneGoogle · March 2026

Questions about manual lessons?

How many driving lessons do I need?

On average about 42 hours of lessons are needed to get your licence (CBR research among exam candidates in 2025). It differs per person. After your trial lesson you get an indication, and if you need more, you add a bundle to your package.

Do I have to take a package?

No, you can also take single lessons. If you choose a package, you pay a lower hourly rate.

What if I have lessons left from my package?

Passed while you still have lessons left? We refund the amount for the unused lessons.

Do I get a regular instructor and car?

Yes. Your trial lesson instructor becomes your regular instructor, and you use the same car for your lessons and your exam.

Do I have to pay my package in one go?

No, you can also pay in instalments. You pay the first instalment before your first lesson, and the rest by the time you've had half of your lessons. Call or message us to arrange it.

Can I drive an automatic with a manual licence?

Yes. If you pass in a manual car, you can drive both manual and automatic cars.
