Transfers Plus... great experience

I booked a transfer with Transfers Plus for my family and me... our first time because in our group of 7 we had an 18-month-old baby... the service did not fall short of expectations... the driver was at the airport waiting for us... and on the return trip the driver arrived 10 minutes before the scheduled time... I have to praise this company for their punctuality.

Excellent transportation

They were attentive to our arrival and the drivers were very friendly. They also share Wi-Fi. There was a small misunderstanding at pickup; things got a bit tangled, but they resolved everything quickly. Thank you very much, Joaquin.

Smooth and recommended experience

Overall, the service was excellent. I had some difficulty contacting them for about 30 minutes after landing, but once I found another number and got in touch, everything was very smooth from there on. Highly recommended for airport transfers.

More than excellent service

It was our first time at Cancun Airport and it can be overwhelming! It gives you so much peace of mind when you walk out and a driver is waiting for you. He took us right up to the steps of our Airbnb. Worth every penny!
