  • I’ve been using Umbrella Transfers for my journeys to or from London airports for more than 4 years now. Drivers are always very reliable and polite. Always on time. Clean and brand new cars. The persons who answer the phone always try their best to solve your problem. I’m very happy with this taxi company.

  • A great find for a long-distance journey when the trains were up the spout. Very capable driver, made good time and a reasonable price capped it off. They're app is also one of the better ones I've experienced in terms of functionality and journey tracing. Will definitely be using them again.

  • Arrived on time to pick us up. Smooth journey to T3. No hairy moments unlike Addison Lee. Also worked out 50% cheaper than Addison Lee.

  • I wish I could give more than 5 stars. I had to change the time of my booking and less than 2 minutes I had an email confirmation. My driver, Lukasz, arrived in the area about 30 minutes early and waited nearby. He was very friendly and did a perfect job of getting us to our destination safely and on time!! Outstanding operation!!

  • We used Umbrella Transfers 3 times during our visit in the UK. Very professional and reliable car service. Cars and drivers were very punctual and excellent drivers. Our driver Sheik stood out! So much better than using UBER. Highly recommend using Umbrella Transfers
    JACK V
  • While transiting in Qatar, I quickly booked a last-minute taxi from Heathrow to Canterbury with Umbrella Transfers. The booking process was simple and the price was great. My driver Sri was punctual, helpful and a pleasure to chat with. The whole experience was smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend them.

  • Collected me from the Gatwick Airport. The driver let me know he was there as I got off the plane and was waiting at the gate. Got me back to London quickly and safely. Pre-booked, cheaper then Uber and other services, very happy. Would happily use them again.
    Pip F
  • Had a great ride in London with a very kind and polite driver named Miha (hope you’re lucky to get him too!). The Tesla was spotless, cool with A/C, and even had water bottles. Felt like a movie star! Will definitely use the Umbrella app again – 5-star experience!
    Amanda.T
  • My driver arrived on time, he was polite, kind and courteous. His car was immaculate as was he. He drove with skill and within the road rules. An absolutely amazing experience I will be sure to use you again. Many thanks
    Sharon Moir
  • Transfer from/to Stansted for our family trip to London: it was so convenient and comfortable. It allowed us to save time to rech the city center upon arrival, and sleep a bit more on our departure day, reaching the airport easily and comfortably. We are a family of four, and the transfer was the perfect solution to make the most out of the time in London. Highly recommended.

FAQ

You can find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions here, so feel free to send us a message if you do not find what you are looking for.

For all Airport Pickups meet and greet service is included in the price. Our chauffeur will wait in designated area in arrivals hall with a name board. Information about chauffeur / vehicle will be sent to you prior to the journey for easy communication.

For Local pickups we offer 15min free waiting time. For Airport pickups we offer 30 minutes free waiting time. After free waiting time we charge extra fee for additional waiting time accordingly to actual pickup time – this fee depends on booking class which is explained in our Terms and Conditions. Additional parking fee will be charged accordingly – this depends on the airport and actual parking charge = everything above £5.

There is a small charge for processing the payment to our customers for unexpected situations where a journey needs to be cancelled (as long as this is done with 24 hour in advance of the requested pick-up time). We understand that sometimes the unpredictable happens and for unforeseen reasons you simply can’t make it.
If you would like to cancel your booking with us, you can do this by emailing us with your booking reference and reason of cancellation. Alternatively you can call our Operating Centre or simply cancel the booking in the customer app.
Pre-paid bookings will be refunded in maximum 5 working days from the moment of cancellation.
If a booking is cancelled less than 24 hours prior to the schedule pick-up time by customer, there will be a cancellation fee applied, which depends on the time we were informed…
More than 24 hours before pick-up time = 5% charge applied / 95% refund
Between 24 and 3 hours before pick-up time = 30% of journey price
Between 3 hours and up to the pick-up time = 50% of journey price
Once journey has commenced (driver on the way), or If you double booked with a different company, but failed to inform or cancel the journey with us, or If you have booked a journey with us, but did not turn up, we will require 100% of journey price.
We strongly suggest to pay for the journey 24h prior to the scheduled pickup time to avoid any charge.

Scheduled pickup time is defined by the customer at the time of placing the booking and it is based on actual landing time. All Airport Pickups are inclusive of 30 minutes of waiting and parking time. This starts at the time of scheduled pickup time. Scheduled pickup time is set individually by the customer and it is usually set from 30 minutes up to 120 minutes after scheduled landing time – depends on origin, amount of luggage and passengers.

As during very busy periods we might be fully booked, we strongly advise to book your journeys in advance to avoid unavailable vehicles from our end. This will give us enough time to advice you and arrange required transfer with one of our partner drivers.

If you travel to or from London with a coach, train, car or private transfer, you will need a little bit more time for journey than you think. London might be very jammed during peak hours. We always advice to take a little bit more time into consideration. From our experience we would like to show you a few examples of how much extra time You need:

From 7am till 10am traffic can delay your Transfer by 40/50% than what your sat nav shows

From 10am till 3pm traffic can delay your Transfer by 20% than what your sat nav shows

From 15pm till 7:30pm traffic can delay your Transfer by 40/50% than what your sat nav shows

From 7:30pm till 7am traffic is usually very low and your Transfer should take no more than 10% more than what your sat nav shows.

You need to consider day of the week, events, road works or accidents on the road. It’s better to have a coffee at the airport with friends than miss the flight ?
