Hours wasted and rude staff

The wait at the airport before we departed when we arrived was over an hour, we were given inaccurate information by the desk then when we finally got to the bus the driver was rude and we had a further wait. Travelling back to the airport was worse, we were over two hours on the bus travelling all over the place collecting other passengers. The journey from our hotel to the airport was only 50mins so we should have been made aware we would be hours on the bus in the heat. We also asked to be collected at a later time as our flight wasn’t until the evening and we didn’t want to have hours in the airport, the lady I spoke to on the phone was also very rude. Although it is much cheaper way to travel than taxi, I wouldn’t recommend as you waste hours to suit their schedule.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are very sorry to hear about the inconvenience and frustration you encountered during your transfers, particularly regarding the waiting times, the service you received, and the overall journey experience.
We would like to clarify that the service you booked was a shared shuttle transfer. This type of service is designed to be a more economical option, and as such, it involves scheduled waiting times at the airport and multiple stops to collect or drop off other passengers. For this reason, both the waiting time after arrival and the longer journey duration on your return transfer can be expected, as the route is planned to accommodate several passengers travelling to and from different locations.
That said, we sincerely apologise that this was not clearly communicated to you in advance, and for any inaccurate information you received from our staff. We are also very concerned to hear about the manner in which you were treated, both at the airport and during your phone call. This is not acceptable, and your comments will be shared with the relevant teams so that we can address these issues internally and improve our service.
We understand how important it is to make the most of your time, especially when travelling, and we regret that your experience did not meet expectations. Your feedback is extremely valuable in helping us improve both our communication and customer service.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.

Mixed experience

Antalya, Turkey. On time. Jerky and unsafe driving, possibly due to constant phone use. Somewhat forward with a solo female passenger, though remained polite

Great prices and easy to book

Haven’t actually used the service yet, but the prices are excellent and the website is user friendly. My holiday isn’t until July so stay tuned for the full lowdown.

NO driver waiting for me!

After 20 hours traveling, I landed in Belgrade. Once I cleared immigration and picked up luggage I reached the arrivals' hall. I was on a wheelchair, desperately looking for the driver that would take me to the hotel. The airport employee handling my wheelchair graciously offered to call Shuttle Direct and inquire about the whereabouts of my assigned driver. We were advised driver on its way, that should arrive in 10-15 minutes. This is unacceptable! Why bother to arrange airport transfer in advance, if the driver is not waiting for you? Not what I expected!

We are very sorry to hear about your experience after such a long journey, especially arriving in a wheelchair and needing assistance right away. That situation should have been handled with far more care and reliability.
You’re absolutely right that arranging an airport transfer in advance is meant to give peace of mind and ensure someone is waiting for you upon arrival. Having to wait and then be told the driver was still 10–15 minutes away is not acceptable, particularly in the circumstances you described.
We understand how stressful and frustrating this must have been after 20 hours of travel, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and lack of readiness on our part. Your feedback has been taken seriously and will be shared with the service supplier to review what went wrong and prevent this from happening again.

First class service

Excellent service - both drivers on pick up and return were professional and courteous. Vehicles were very clean and communication via watzap was much appreciated. Although not the cheapest option available I was overall very pleased with the service. Thank you.

ShuttleDirect.com 5* company.

ShuttleDirect.com were excellent in the service they provided. We booked to go from Malaga Airport to Marbella with a return journey for ten female travellers. We gave them the flight details and they worked out when to collect them from the airport and the return journey from Marbella. The drivers met them handled the luggage for them and was very nice and helpful. The minibus was very clean, new and comfortable and spacious. 5 star service and value for money.

HOLIDAY TRANSPORT.

The driver was waiting for us at the airport with a name board displayed. He spoke good English as was polite and helpful. This was the same for return journey. Very impressed with drivers, punctuality, and clean vehicles which made our journey to and from the Hotel hassle free and pleasant.

Shuttle direct

i have used this company a lot but the last trip was awful, the company changed the pick up place last minute and we turned up and they did not pick us up, and ended up paying £21.00 in taxi fee. Lucky we had money on us. I have contacted them and they were answering me at first and now no contact.

Absolute awful and will advise please think twice
