Great customer service , flexibility and professionalism , fast ride and amazing view of the city . Make sure confirmed properly as no Spanish speaking option available
I used Welcome Pickups for my airport transfer in Athens, and it was one of the easiest travel experience I've had. My driver was waiting with a sign, spoke fluent English, and even gave me local tips during the ride. The car was spotless, and the booking process was seamless through their app. It felt more like a private tour than a taxi ride. Highly recommend for stress-free arrivals!
Juan Manuel was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Showed willingness to adapt our itinerary.
The driver initially thought we booked a 4 hour tour of Madrid rather than a 6 hour tour to Segovia. This was the actual fault of the third party booking agent. His car smelled so bad of air freshener that we had to crack the windows the entire trip. When we got to Segovia, he proceeded to drive around the city rather than ask us what we wanted to do, or drop us off in town. I’m not sure if this is what the third party booking agent told him to do. Luckily I had two timed entry tickets to the alcazar, where we finally got out of the car. He was a good driver.
We had issues with the car arrangement . We had tickets for 8 but a sedan for 4 . We spent 2 hours resolving this as the pick up company did not pick up . Finally we had to book an extra Sedan so that we could go together . The driver of the first sedan was very helpful to help resolve the situation. He was very kind and took us via a scenic route to Segovia . Segovia was fantastic with great views and Sergio recommended great path as well as photo spots .
