First Class Transfer

Luiz_O, Jan 2025
This was our first experience with this operator and we were very pleased with the service provided. The support was very efficient, always responded promptly, and communication was excellent. Our driver, Antwone, was a special case. An excellent professional, he assisted us upon arrival and also on the day of departure. Attentive, efficient in meeting our schedules and safe driving. A professional who truly deserves five stars in his rating.

Confusion and Frustration

Nikkio_F, Jun 2023
They don't honor the price nor the claims. They DO NOT serve Chicago, only as far as downtown. It would be better to add that piece of information so that no one else's ride is cancelled the day before they are set to depart. They accommodated me in end but they did say Viator's information is wrong and that they will no longer accept rides from Viator.

Make sure its not Carmel Car Service.

Michelle_G, May 2023
Scheduled an exact pickup time for the driver to be at my hotel a week before needing the ride. I even had to call the company providing the service to confirm my reservation details a day before. The driver reached out to me 15min before he was supposed to be there and asked me for the address where I was going to. I had already put that information in my request and confirmed it the day prior. I sent the information, the driver then acknowledged that he was on his way, and that he would be there in 20min. By the time he would have arrived to me, I would have waited 25min for him outside of the original time for him to be there. I called the company that Viator selected for service and cancelled and explained their driver was late. I asked for a refund and both the company & Viator agreed to pay. Do not do business with Carmel Car Service or at least don't preschedule a time and expect someone to be there.

Confirmation of services required

Annie_F, Apr 2023
Our driver was on time, friendly and helpful. HOWEVER, I reserved a SUV and received a minivan. Confirmation was made early morning Mon/Apr24 and yet received another one at 10:45pm. He made mention of late call and a minivan would be there AND I noted I reserved and confirmed a SUV

Wonderful driver and trip to the airport.

Kim_R, Nov 2022
Antwone picked me up exactly on time, got out of the car and grabbed my bags to put them in the trunk. Very nice, friendly and a great driver. He makes an instant great impression as soon as you meet him. He was fun to talk to and the ride went quickly. Couldn't ask for a better driver. Highly recommend him.

Say Viator No More

Christopher_C, Oct 2022
Someone from Carmen Car and Limo service called me around 2pm to confirm the pick up time, number of passengers in my party and pickup location. Seemed odd to have to repeat information they already had since the reservation was made 1 month in advance. A few hours later another email was sent to me stating the reservation was cancelled because all the Illinois drivers were working. I was left stranded without transportation and little time to find an alternative ride. If zero stars was a ratings option I would have selected that. Viator needs to screen their outsource partners more closely.

DONOT BOOK!

Tiffany_R, Jul 2022
The driver didn’t show up or answer his phone. I called the dispatcher and they sent an Uber. The uber couldn’t accommodate all 6 of us so two passengers had to pay for a ride on their own. We paid for a six passenger van. This was such an inconvenience at 6am and caused us to spend more money. We almost missed our flight. The manager did not sympathize or offer any type of refund. They told us to call Viator which they didn’t offer any partial refund either.

Complete failure!

Terri_W, Jun 2022
I called Viator 3 times to confirm ride. I also called Carmel 5 times and was finally confirmed with no help from Viator..then 4:30 am Carmel said they could not accommodate via email not even text. I don’t read emails when readying to go to airport. We had to scramble for ride since no ride showed up. Terrible experience. Should not be that hard to get a ride to airport. Complete failure on your part and Carmel. I booked with you so should have been your responsibility to assure everything went smoothly or why bother booking with you?
