Overall rating

Our flight was delayed for 30minutes and the driver still waited for us. I think as long as you specify the exact time you’ll arrive, they will give you some time allowance. The driver was also very helpful and even gave us some time to exchange our money. The seats were very comfortable as well.

Extremely useful while we were in Japan. Bought 2 SIMs which worked really well, did not slow down even with high use and streaming. Cheaper than renting a Wi-Fi egg for the same duration

The driver was super polite and very patient with us. However, the car was not what is shown in the picture, it was a vintage taxi.

The driver was on time. He also helped in carrying the luggages. The seats were comfortable too.

He came on time and drove safely, so I was able to come comfortably
