- Mwilliamson20 contributionsFantasticThe driver was at the airport with our name on a board waiting for us when we arrived at Goa airport. He messaged us the day before giving us all the details of where he would be. We sent our picture over so he knew who we were. He was waiting when we arrived. Nice smooth transfer, very friendly . We arrived at our hotel , I left my phone in the taxi. The hotel were very helpful to find out who the taxi was . The driver telephoned our hotel and came back with my phone . Very very gratefulWritten 17 March 2025

- anitacD2433KI0 contributionsMy day in MumbaiHad a fabulous time on my day trip of the city. Nisar was my guide and he tailored the tour to the city highlights and what I wanted to see. He even took me a couple places for shopping. The highlights of my tour were visiting the Ghandi museum and the Hindu Temple. The museum was a true learning experience, where the temple was beautiful and sacred. A really fantastic day.Written 15 March 2025
- Trail401608924750 contributionsA very enjoyable tour of Mumbai at a very fair priceOur driver Nisar was knowledgeable and friendly. It was an excellent way to see Mumbai at a good pace. Very good value we highly recommend him and this tourWritten 9 March 2025
- Cazzatime0 contributionsAirport service recommended!Great service . We arrived early and they were great communicators and arranged to pick up at earlier time than requested. However I would stress that as they have flight details they should keep eye on landing and work out approx time we come thru.Written 9 March 2025
- Dream5763450 contributionsSmooth tripSolid ride. Communication was not ideal as nobody really spoke proper english but we managed with translator. We traveled at night and always felt safe.Written 6 March 2025

- Johnnybutton0 contributionsExtremely satisfied.Everything went exceptionally well. The driver was a nice young guy who was very able. He helped resolve a big problem we had with our luggage and he delivered us to our obscure Delhi hotel with alacrity! I couldn’t have asked for better. He was a hero!Written 3 March 2025
- janelH4208CG0 contributionsGreat driver but the car was too small for 3 peopleExcellent driver. His driving was safe and calm. He was also very professional. Stayed quiet in the car and let us slept. The car was very small for 3 peopleWritten 3 March 2025
- josevelasc0 contributionsThey are a freudTerrible experience. Don't booke with them if you want to save your time and money. I booked a cab in advance, paid the deposit, the cab never came and customer service didn't care. Absolutely unprofessional and total fraud.Written 3 March 2025
- J4349QSlaurenh0 contributionsDon't do this tour!!!!Firstly we requested a 9am pickup. We didn't get picked up until 10am. We headed off and went two places which weren't even on the intinary which we also had to pay for. We then were taken to another place - snow park which you had to pay for and we requested to be taken to lunch which was included in the tour. We were taken to a different place to eat which were expected to pay for, we asked about the place in the intinary and were told too far away. We asked to go to a different place we knew (as place we went wasn't good). We paid for lunch and asked to be taken back to hotel. The tour guide/driver didn't talk to us at all or show us places, though I think he could speak English. We were ripped off! Don't do this tour.....Written 2 March 2025
- Sivadasan M0 contributionsSafe travels to Indian airportsIf you are a senior foreign visitor, there are plenty of traps to get caught at the Kochi international terminal. As soon as you get out of the taxi/uber and if you hesitate, a porter will come and load your luggage onto a trolly and prompt you to follow,and at the curb a smartly dressed lady will say gently That’s Rs 1000 for the escort up to the checkin counter. Unless you quickly respond that you have wheel.chair requested through the airline, the fee will quickly go up to few thousands more for a ride to either the lounge or to the gate through security and all. Granted it is only around $12 - 50, all will be charged to your credit card in a flash. I am not sure how many locals fall for this, a visitor surely falls for it. Always remember, there are free trollis at the curb. Every airline will provide wheel chair assistance through your booking free of charges to get through immigration and customs to and from the aircraft door if you need them. You are advised to take pre-paid taxi to your destination, and uber advance bookings to the airport. Everything else, you get trapped by various operatives, just like all tourist traps. Never buy anything at the airport even duty free shopping. Buy locally and you pay at least 50% less. Good travels.Written 1 March 2025

I am Roshni from Bhubaneswar, I had gone to Kolkata last month for interview and i had no knowledge about Kolkata city. I had no knowledge how to reach at my interview point. When i had reached at Kolkata station i was confused where to go, Then i search "best car rental in kolkata" and got TaxiBazaar. I booked a car through online at TaxiBazaar and the car came immediately and i had gone to interview place. The driver also very friendly. Thanks TaxiBazaar for your best service.

The driver arrived at our hotel on time.
Unfortunately, we soon discovered that he spoke no English and as we speak English only, this was a disadvantage. However, we made the best of it, laughed at the situation and luckily already knew where we wanted to go.
He pointed out places of interest on the way and we found it relaxing to be driven from venue to venue throughout the day.
He found us a fixer at Kalighat Temple and we managed to gain entry via a back way at this highly important temple. He also took us to the oldest dhaba in Kolkata at almost 100 years old.
Yes, we paid a high price for what was, in fact, a taxi service, but we felt he was looking after us, parking near the places we wanted to see.
We actually found it amusing that he wasn't able to converse with us but not everyone would appreciate the mishap.
I would urge the company concerned to offer a choice of guides proficient in the language of the tourists' choice.
