We were contacted by their driver thru WhatsApp and told he would be at the airport to pick us up. When our flight was delayed over four hours we did everything we could to contact him and he did not respond. Then the company unknowingly changed drivers and when we weren't there on time he left and we were not pickup when we did arrive and no compensation was given to us. It was their problem changing drivers without telling us then they blame us. If for some reason you miss your pick up you are just out of luck. After multiple emails it is obvious we will not be reimbursed. Don't use this service.

Please be aware this company can cancel your prepaid bookings with hardly any notice. We had booked 4 transfers for a large group well in advance, and they only turned up for 2, leaving us to urgently source alternative transport. Not fun when organizing a large group, in a strange country at night.

The driver was easy to find at the airport in Seville. Cheerful, helpful, and on time. Made our arrival nice and straightforward. Thank you.

This was my first time using Welcome Pickups & in 4 weeks in Europe & using Welcome numerous time I cannot speak more highly of them. Communication, service, vehicles, the drivers were all amazing. We even had a 3 hour trip & Samuel was so helpful, considerate & all trips were very safe & professional. Highly recommend & made our trip so stress free :-)

I used Welcome Pickups to go from Bodrum, Turkey to Fathiye, Turkey and everything went very smoothly. A few days later, I had booked another pick up from Fathiye to Antalya, a 3 hour drive. I had to get to Antalya by 12 noon for a tour that I had booked. I was supposed to be picked up at 8 o’clock in the morning. At 7:30 on the morning of the scheduled pick up, I noticed an email (thank God I checked) that had been sent at 7:15 am, 45 minutes before my scheduled pick up that they were unable to find a driver for me and they canceled my trip. They didn’t know the night before that they wouldn’t be able to find a driver? This company is very unreliable and I won’t use them again.

Paid fee up front for pick up in Istanbul. We thought all would be okay even though our flight was 20 minutes late because welcome pick ups says that they monitor flight delays. However they start your 1 hour grace period when your plane lands, not when it arrives at the gate, our plane took an extra 20 minutes for us to taxi to the gate and deplane, their time clock should start only when plane is at the gate. Welcome pickups also changed our driver on us, so when we connected with the assigned driver we were informed of this change but had no contact information for the new driver until we were able to get internet and find the email. We were never contacted by the new driver. We arrived 2 minutes after the 1 hour grace period our pick up had been cancelled and welcome pick ups kept our payment, not even a partial refund. They use Uber and taxi drivers and if you end up with a driver change beware, the communication is lacking and they will keep your money.

I use this service no less than 2 to 3 times a year. Never an issue and always a happy driver willing to share info about the location I flew to. Other family members also use it as well after my recommendation. Being picked up after a long flight into a luxury vehicle with a private driver works for me. I even have hired them to drive me for local tours as a guide. My Istanbul driver was knowledgeable and reliable. Had a great trip their Just a couple of weeks ago. But I go to Berlin a couple times a year and love the ability to communicate thru the Welcome APP. I find the company consistent and reliable. They are always part of my travels from Europe to South America!

Do Not use this company, Not only are they overpriced , double that of a regular Taxi ,getting a straight answer from them is impossible. we were delayed at Paris airport , we were in contact with the driver the whole time explaining the situation, when we finally got through after about 1hr 15mins, within 5 mins of telling the driver he stated that he had already left the airport. We have been in contact with so many different "CUSTOMER SUPPORT" people all saying something different, whilst we were offered a voucher it is of little use to us after the fact. All communication with the driver via What's App MESSAGES have also been provide numerous times.

While messaging the driver ahead of the ride, the booking got cancelled, and despite contacting the customer service immediately to resolve the incident, no service was provided, neither a refund nor an option to rebook on another date were provided. I would define this as a theft to a customer

Do not use at any cost. i booked for 3 adults and a baby seat, turns up in a sedan, no baby seat! There was no way 3 large suitcases would fit his boot. Then complains as we did have a babys case also and cancels this booking, with me footing the 80 euro bill and just leaving us with no way of getting to the airport. We had to pay double that for a peak hour taxi. Disgusting service. Dont trust them.

Welcome Pickups FAILED to pick us up at the Athens Airport on Oct 1, 2025. Coming out of baggage claim, we passed probably 50 people holding signs from other private transportation services. I called Welcome and was told they had sent me an email canceling our reservation because of a one-day taxi strike. We received NO email, text or call from them in the prior week. The lady I talked to suggested we take the bus or Metro. Coming out of baggage claim, we passed probably 50 people holding signs from other private transportation services. The others were operating as usual. I am giving (not very) Welcome two stars instead of one because they did a nice job on a previous trip. Suggest you use other transportation services if you can.

Our driver was ~Emrecan Bilgin. Thank you. The driver was exceptionally cordial, professional and accommodating. This is the reason why we keep on coming back to welcome pickups for service over years! Thank you

We used Welcome four times whilst in Sorrento & Napoli. Can't recommend them highly enough. Always on time, friendly and professional. Super comfortable vehicles. We were very impressed 👍

Exceptional customer service. They resolved an issue with my booking made by my own mistake. They could easily decline but instead they showed me how beautiful and understanding their human side is. Extreme helpful and awesome saved me from a lot of 'traveller stress'. 10 stars if I could!

This company is very unprofessional. I booked it to have a safe car seat for my 10 month old for the approx 1 hour journey after a long haul flight. The driver showed up with NO baby seat, was 15 minutes late and didnt come into the airport to meet us. Wouldnt recommend at all.
