No show. Missed my flight. I was waiting at the designated spot at the time we agreed before and nobody picked me up.

Travel to the airport was smooth. It was easy to find the location and they sent a reminder to our hotel the aftenoon before our departure. Highly recommend!

Great communication about pickup time and location, they chose a very close spot to our hotel. Pickup was on time. We would use them again.

If I could give 0 stars, I would. I paid for the “early” pick up (before 0800, an extra $40) and requested 0700 pick up. The company messaged me that they would pick us up at 0810. That didn’t work- our flight was boarding at 1015…. When I tried to arrange the original time I requested, and PAID FOR , crickets. We had to arrange other transport last minute!! Save your time and money and book elsewhere or take the water bus. If I don’t hear from Viator to get my money back, I won’t be using this platform again. Very disappointed.

Smooth and easy. Although the fact that you are charged for a minimum of two heading back to the airport is a bit steep. Why tax solo travelers like that?

Easy to book. Transfer came right to our hotel dock and direct to airport in 20 minutes! It was worth it not to drag our bags through the city and board a water bus which would have taken 60-90 minutes on a crowded water bus with your luggage. Highly recommend!
