Extremely poor (non-existant in our case) service
KENNETH_G, October 2026
This was the poorest treatment I've ever experienced from a transportation company. We landed at London's Heathrow Airport a few minutes late, and then had to wait on the tarmac for 30 minutes before deplaning. While waiting onboard the plane, the driver texted that he was here, and where were we? I texted back we were still on the plane near terminal 5. The driver didn't say which terminal he was at. At Heathrow, all passengers had to take a bus to get to terminal 5 from the plane, which took at least another 15 minutes. We still had no idea where the driver was. At one point, he said he was "waiting outside coffee." -- exact quote from his text. To make a long story short, at no point did the driver make clear where he was at Heathrow (there are 5 terminals) or where he could pick us up, and he ultimately left us there, going on to another pickup. We had to get an Uber to take us to our destination in London, at a cost of half of what Viator had charged us. We applied for a refund from Viator, but they denied it. In my opinion, Viator's price was exorbitant, its driver was incompetent and the company unresponsive to our complaint. We will never use Viator again and if asked would advise others to avoid it.

Just take an Uber
Passenger51537591261, October 2026
First we got bumped from our flight so we missed our pickup time. I called to let them know we wouldn’t be on the flight but the next one. We were informed there was nothing they can do and we had to take an uber. One the return trip the driver didn’t want to come to the hotel because it took extra 20 minutes due to construction. He wanted us to walk with our luggage to him. He lied and said we booked the wrong hotel pickup which I showed him that we didn’t. My wife had to talk to him aggressively to get him to do his job and he reluctantly drove to our hotel and picked us up. Uber is cheaper than this service so providing the best service should be number one. I’ll just take an uber next time as they were a lot more service friendly.

Great pickups at airport and in city
grvu, October 2026
They were very good at communicating both at the airport and by Whatsapp for the return trip to the airport. Both drivers were very courteous and caring. The cars very clean and in excellent condition. Will use again.

Waited a long time, but the driver was great!
Diana_D, September 2026
There was a problem with a vehicle and we ended up waiting an hour for the driver to show up. Initially we were told 15 minutes. We would have preferred to have a more accurate estimate. Our driver was courteous and an excellent driver

Our driver Kibrea was...
Denise_W, September 2026
Our driver Kibrea was fabulous!!
He contacted us just as we were waiting for our luggage to let us know where he would be waiting to pick us up. He took charge of our luggage and delivered us to our destination, then carried the luggage to the check in. He was friendly and engaging on the drive in to the city. A good representative for the company and would certainly select him as a driver again.
