I had a pleasure to use the service of Umbrella Transfers last week. Company has been very professional at all aspects. Driver was very polite & punctual, car was very modern & clean. Highly recommend their services. -
Very professional service, having booked a transfer from home to the airport. The driver arrived early, was very courteous and friendly throughout the ride, and really made the journey smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommended service. -
Highly recommend! I travel a lot for work and used umbrella transfers for the first time this afternoon. Driver was so friendly and vehicle was lovely and comfortable. Will certainly use again, thank you!

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!!
-
This company was excellent. Communicated well when our return flight was cancelled. Aroop was an excellent driver & drove safely. Very helpful. Would highly recommend & definitively use again. Thank you.

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

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.
-
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!
-
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

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.
