This was the hairiest, scariest journey of my life in this red jeep on the way back to Salento after the trek. You can seat 4-6 comfortably but these guys cram in up to 10-12 people for extra cash. There were 6 in the back, 4 in the front, a couple on the roof and I was standing on the back ledge with one guy but after he picked up others en route, there were 5 of us hanging on the back. Unluckily I was on the edge and the driver was tearing round the corners and very nearly lost control while the jeep careered right over to one side round the corners. I was holding on for dear life and my fingers were red raw by the time we got back.
