Transfer Charleroi airport - Brussels center: on the way out we took a random cab spending 200€. GetTransfer allowed us to spend only 60 on the return instead, with a driver who was very punctual (in fact, early!), friendly, helpful and professional. Fast payment and very efficient communication with the driver. Based on our experience I recommend him without any doubt!

Great service. Arrived promptly and asked if we needed to stop off anywhere on our way to our hotel. On our return journey asked about our trip which was nice.

The exciting museum city on the river Arno with the world’s best steak and unforgettable wine… Endless time will not be enough to embrace the beauty of Florence and its jewels. Basilica di San Lorenzo, the Palazzo Vecchio and Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fore, to name a few.
