Best Strategy And Playing This Game Ride the Rio

Rio is a new way to get around New Braunfels. We’re an on-demand microtransit service that’s smart, easy, and reliable.

When you’re ready to travel, book a ride in the Ride the Rio app and our technology will pair you with other people headed your way.

Whether you want to run an errand, visit a friend, or need reliable transit to recurring events (work, appointments, etc.), this service will get you there!

HOW IT WORKS:
- Book a ride on your smart phone by setting your pickup and dropoff addresses, and indicating if you’re riding with any additional passengers. You may also call a booking agent to book your trip over the phone.
- You will be given an estimated time when the vehicle will arrive upon booking your trip. The estimated arrival time of the driver will be automatically updated as your vehicle makes its way to meet you.
- We’ll give you an automated text or push notification when we’re nearby.
- When your driver arrives, please promptly board the vehicle.
- There may be others on board, and you may make a few additional stops along the way! You can track your ride in real-time from the app.

I've ridden for a while now since November of last year and it's great when there aren't continuous glitches as there seems to be right now. I tried using the App as instructed but the pickup location & drop off location would not load period I wasn't going to work thankfully or I might be out of a job. It needs to be fixed and the communication from dispatch needs to be available to everyone else. Or I will be happy to pay Lyft more money 🤑.

Love that New Braunfels has this! I use them once a week and never have a problem. The drivers are always nice and vehicles are always clean.

it wouldn't take my destination and kept changing it to another Genesis Medical Group office. Also, can I set a pickup time? The helpline gave a message, then hung up. Also, can I book an hour before my ride?
