The driver was...
Daniel_C, May 2024
The driver was professional and on time for our 3:40 AM pick up. He was helpful with bags and comfort of passengers during the ride. He got us to the airport quickly. Would use again.
Courteous and professional driver
Karen_J, Apr 2024
Our driver arrived for pickup a few minutes early and was very professional and personable. He explained different areas of the city as we drove through and answered any questions we had. He ran to retrieve a trolley for our luggage upon arrival at Heathrow. Our booking process and contact with the office was perfect. I would absolutely book this again.
Awesome Driver
Jeanine_R, Dec 2023
Our driver was so personable. I loved that she called to see if we could leave earlier than original time. It made for getting to our flight on time in Gatwick. Our drive showed us the countryside on our way to the airport and explained things to us.
DO NOT BOOK - Super Sketchy!!
Elizabeth_R, Oct 2023
AVOID AT ALL COSTS! It was extremely difficult to contact this vendor to change the time for pickup after our flight got delayed several hours. I tried emailing, which was the shared method for contact, but that is apparently a 48 hour turnaround, which didn’t help at all. Then I tried calling the number provided in the auto response, and couldn’t get anyone. Eventually, the hotel was able to get through for me that morning. The man I spoke to was very NOT understanding and said that the car was already “on the way,” 5 hours in advance of my pickup time. When I said that didn’t make sense, and I just wanted to push the pickup a few hours because of sn airline delay, he said that he couldn’t accommodate. So I requested to cancel it, and he said, “you’d really cancel over an hour or two?” And I said yes. So he said fine and hung up. When I tried to get a refund from Viator for the service that he had verbally agreed to cancel, he apparently lied to them about what time my original pickup was and that I wasn’t ready to go at the new time, so they said they couldn’t process a refund. THERE WAS NEVER ANY PICKUP. Just a huge scam all around, and I don’t think I’ll continue being a viator customer with vendors like this. I can’t trust that they properly vet them. Just book a taxi at a flat rate and it will be infinitely less frustrating, less time consuming, and cheaper. This sucked.
Great Transport
John_H, Oct 2023
Easy booking, easy pick up, and easy drop off at airport. Driver was great and made everything easy!
It just worked perfectly
Ashley_M, Oct 2023
Our first experience from LHR to our hotel was a fail. (See separate review). This trip was perfect. Driver arrived early. Was superb. Very informative and helpful with our (very heavy) bags.
Very unhappy
Terrence_G, Sep 2023
It all started when we followed your direction when we checked in with the concierge and waited by the concierge desk. the driver checked with reception (NOT your direction). When he started driving he was so busy looking at tiktok on his phone that he caught us in a small traffic jam. He never once asked us if we wanted air conditioning or the windows open. He turned the radio on to his station and spent almost the entire trip on the phone. These are not the actions of a PROFESSIONAL driver.
Use a taxi...
MT_1, Sep 2023
Poor experience. Driver was an hour early for puck up without prior notification. We realised during the trip that he already had another return fare. Was continually texting during the drive which caused him to veer across the road- unsafe. To top it off we were dropped off at the arrivals pick up point and we had to fend for ourselves from there. The first time in many similar drop off's this has happened. Will use a taxi in future.
Transfer from hotel to airport.
Charlotte_V, Aug 2023
Great transfer service. Driver picked us up at the hotel on time and took us to the airport. Driver was very friendly.
Really good
Jessica_B, Aug 2023
On time, polite. Did feel like communicating through the app could’ve been better. I couldn’t text or WhatsApp the other number. But still will recommend and use again.
The ride to the airport...
Nadine_F, Aug 2023
The ride to the airport was most enjoyable. The driver arrived exactly on time and we had great conversation throughout the trip. He checked on my flight status when we arrived and gave me a souvenir magnet as a remembrance of my trip. One of the best trips by a car service that I have had!
Services you can trust.
inderjit_s, Jul 2023
Reporting before time and very courteous drivers. Arranging luggage and on arrival assisting fr luggage trollies. I have excellent experience of their services.5
Drama free
brian_f, Jul 2023
Punctuality and communication were amazing made the experience of getting to the airport hassle free
Quick, Easy Trip from Central London to Heathrow
Jacob_M, Jul 2023
Pickup was a little early (much better than late!) but no problem. Ride was very clean and comfortable. Overall, a great experience.
Great ride
Kevin_A, Jul 2023
Driver was early and friendly. Got us to Standtead in plenty of time. Much easier than dragging luggage on public transport!
Fernandez, our driver, is a consumate professional!
Mariana_L, Jul 2023
Our driver, Fernandez, was great. He arrived on time and was very personable, professional and courteous. I wish we had known about him sooner so that we could have asked him to drive us to more places in London in addition to back to the airport. This drive was a great way to end our trip!
Good transfer to the airport!
rsbarrett900, Jun 2023
Our transfer driver was punctual and a very pleasant person. He made the ride enjoyable and was also a careful driver. Good experience!
Great transport for family of 4 from central London to airport
Scott_M, Jun 2023
Great transport for family of 4 from central London to airport. Driver was a few minutes early (which was nice), polite, and got us to the airport in plenty of time. thank you.
Disappointed
Stephen_G, Jun 2023
I don’t believe there was a memorable moment from this experience unless you call the disappointing moments memorable. Both transfers provided us with cars that did not fit us and our luggage. We were cramped into the car with a full-sized piece of luggage…both times! We alerted Viator of the problem we had with the transfer from the Airport, but there was still a problem for the transfer back. It seems that Viator doesn’t really know what their operators are doing. I don’t think I would recommend Viator to anyone.
TERRIBLE TRANSFER SERVICE TO THE AIRPORT
Ricardo_S, Jun 2023
On June 6th, we had a transfer from our Londod hotel to Gatwick airport. We were picked up on time at 11:00 am from the Tavistock Hotel in London. However, the driver, instead of using the freeway, used the side streets of London to get to Gatwick. We had to weave through all the city traffic for about one and a half hours before we can get to Gatwick. The drive was a stressful and harrowing experience. The driver (a Portugese as he identified himself), said that the distance was shorter. The tour operator is identified in Invoice as Airtport Transfers.
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Hi, Thank you for your feedback. Our drivers are requested to use a GPS navigator software in order to provide the best/fastest journey to the passengers. Unless there is road works or demonstrations in Central London. Going South thru London is the fastest way to Gatwick Airport. Going west to Heathrow to grab the M25 is a journey that usually takes a minimum of 2 hours . For a 11:00 pick up, 90 minutes is a very good time from Central London to Gatwick. This can be verified by checking google maps or Waze. Kind regards
