“The drivers were fine and the cars were clean but were late for both of my transfers. The excuse was traffic but other drivers had arrived on time for their customers, probably because they left earlier to cater for the traffic. I will choose a different company next time”

Google review

“Very happy with the service, the car was very clean, driver was on time and the route was optimal. Two things I want to especially mention. I was very pleasantly surprised how diligent the driver was, it not everyday you see driver uses indicators even at 4AM on a small street with no cars insight. The second thig was a bit of a scare, as usually drivers arrive close to 30 minutes earlier, I was a bit stressed if they were coming. This is all on me, as the driver was on time and all was great, so don't worry 🙂 I will definitely use them again for my travel. PS: I have only used them for a transfer to the airport, haven't tried the other direction yet.”
