The driver was communicative and did arrive on time, even with flight delays. However, the driver took us to the wrong location. Before we started the drive, the driver confirmed our hotel name and address. It was correct. For safety reasons, I was following along on my phone and noticed a lot of exits/turns were missed. Eventually, we started driving in the complete opposite direction of our accommodation. It was a very scary moment, but I spoke up and asked the driver where we were going. He stated that this GPS was taking him here. I had to copy the Google Maps link and send it to him before he finally started taking us the right way. That added over an hour of driving time to us. It was late (1am) and we were extremely tired. It was also very scary. Not sure I would recommend.

Driver was great. Text messages from different contractors was confusing. Each one gave slightly different instructions. The important one came from the driver.

The company communicated with me throughout the entire process from booking to final pick up. The Driver Giselle was on time and very helpful. We arrived with ease to our destination. I would definitely recommend this transfer service from MCO to Orlando area hotels. Very reasonably priced.

Our driver Pedro arrived on time to take us to the airport. It was a very early pick up time and he was there on the dot. He even picked us up in front of the building/villa we were staying instead of just meeting us up in the main lobby which made it easier for us with the 4 luggages we have and the car seat plus a stroller. Very professional and polite. Would definitely use this company next time we come back to Orlando.
