Driver was punctual and very professional. The van was clean and spacious for the 9 of us. The added trailer for our luggage was great. Roberto Padron
Our driver was there on time, helpful and friendly. Kiwitaxi is a top notch company, very professional with great follow up. This is my second time using your service and I will do so again. Susan Silvestrone

All went well! Good communication on whatapp and on a phone with confirm. Friendly driver, good clean car, and on-time. Also safe driving, would book my transfer here again Recommend! Marina
I was pleasantly surprised that my return ride was GREAT. I had some problems with my first ride from the Istanbul Airport into town and had planned to also handle the return trip with Kiwitaxi. This drive and this trip was very good. The vehicle was clean, the driver arrived 10 minutes early, was very helpful in getting our bags into the vehicle, was polite, spoke Turkish, Arabic, and English. He was a safe driver, did NOT use his phone during the trip, was friendly but also was appropriately quiet. It was a good last impression that was left. VanettaA
All good - our driver, Anthony, was early to collect us, helpful with our luggage, and pleasant to chat to en route to the airport. Would definitely recommend this service. Carole P
Kirill is excellent. Very caring, helping, intelligent with great driving skills. In our short drive home we had a guided tour around dinner of the Barcelona's famous neighbourhoods and landmarks and had a lecture on history of the city. Overall top notch service and great value for money. Iwan Potapow

FAQ

How do I book a transfer in South Africa?

Then, click on the “View Prices” button. Select the required transfer class and click "Book" to continue with the booking.

How far in advance should I book a transfer in South Africa?

The timing depends on the vehicle class.

Premium class vehicles or Minibus for 10, 13, 16 or 19 pax should be booked at least 24 hours in advance.

Standard vehicles (Micro, Economy, Comfort, Minivan 4 pax, Minibus 7 pax) should be booked at least 16 hours prior to your trip.

If you don't have that much time, you can book an urgent transfer. We will inform you as soon as possible whether we can provide the service or not.

Provide the order number and the new arrival time.

What should I do if my flight to South Africa arrives early?

If your flight arrives early, your driver may not be at the meeting point with a nameplate yet. Please wait for the driver at the meeting point indicated on the voucher.

You can also contact the driver by phone or SMS to speed up your meeting at the airport.

Important note: If possible, do not leave the airport with a local taxi service, as we will not be able to refund you.

How do I find my driver before my transfer in South Africa?

Important note: Your driver will meet you with a nameplate displaying the first and last names you provided during the booking.

For airport transfers, the driver will meet you at the arrivals area exit. It is located after the passport control and the baggage claim areas.

For hotel transfers, the driver will wait in the lobby.

Detailed meet-up instructions can be found in your trip confirmation voucher. It will also include the driver’s telephone number.

Transfer in the Republic of South Africa 

The Republic of South Africa is a multi-ethnic and multi-cultural state. Desmond Tutu, a fighter for the rights of black people, once called it iridescent, wishing to emphasize the diverse population of the country. The most famous sights in Cape Town are the Table Mountain and Cape of Good Hope, near which, according to the legend, the Flying Dutchman was cursed. In another large city of South Africa, Johannesburg, there is a complex of caves called the Cradle of Mankind, where the 2.3 million years old remains of a primitive man were found. 

Taxi in South Africa is quite comfortable and inexpensive. Some taxis have taximeters. In other cases, you should negotiate the price with the taxi driver. It is good to know the average tariff in the country in order to avoid overpaying for the trip. You can either book the taxi by phone or find it in large parking lots. We do not recommend using Uber, as local taxi drivers are very aggressive towards it. For example, once Uber cars were blocked from the access to the airport, and many people were late for their flights. Under any circumstances, do not try to hail cars. It is not accepted in South Africa. Most likely, only criminals will respond to that. It is dangerous not only for your valuables but also for your life. 

If you want to have a safe and convenient trip, choose a transfer from Kiwitaxi. All our drivers are licensed and they are interested in the perfect performance of the order. The work of the taxi driver is evaluated by the client. The more bad reviews the driver receives, the fewer are his chances to get the next order. The transfer is not a competitor for taxis, as it is a completely different service. So, do not be afraid of the attacks from taxi drivers. You do not have to worry about the final price of the trip. You will pay just as much as was indicated at the time of booking. The price will be affected neither by fluctuations in the exchange rate nor by traffic situations.
