VIP Treatment for a Regular Guy.

Kath_R, Jul 2018
Booked a limo but they never turned up. Called them and they said they had a problem transferring money as I was international even though my money had gone from my account weeks before. I had to find an alternative service after a 10 hour flight, with no local knowledge. No idea what actually went wrong but wouldnt recommend to use this service.

Very easy to find the driver with text communication from company. As advertised, he was standing in the arrival area with a sign. He was very pleasant and a safe driver.

Alexandra V, Dec 2014
excellent service - my flight was delayed by approx 90 minutes and we then had a wait at immigration and security but my driver was there waiting with a very clearly marked sign and had me in the car and at my hotel very efficiently. He was a very pleasant driver courteous and friendly without being over the top. The only downside was he advised that I needed to pay $5 parking charges (presumably because of my delay) and I didn't have the right change, nor did he and nor could I pay by credit card so I felt bad that he had to waive this - a warning that there could be an extra charge (or this could be added to the advance fee) would have been better all round. I would use again and will be booking for my return trip

Nicht empfehlenswert, besser Uber nehmen!

Fahrer war am falschen Terminal, in der Buchung vom Veranstalter angegebene Telefonnummer war nicht erreichbar, eigene Telefonnummer wurde nicht versucht per SMS zu erreichen, dilettantisch.

大量の荷物がある場合はお勧めします

1人のスタッフの方が空港の出口から移動先のホテルの入り口まで大量の荷物を嫌な顔1つせずに持って行ってくれた。車内も高級感があり、快適でした。私は彼に10ドルのチップを渡しましたが、それ以上のパフォーマンスでした。
