Reviews of Aardvark Travel

M. I.

We used Aardvark for a long distance appointment with a wait and return service. They were very helpful and it was easy to book. Gary was our driver, he made things stress free alll round. Can't thank them enough. Would definitely recommend and use again. Thanks again

L. D.

This was my first time using Aardvark. I needed transport to and from my Grandma’s for a family wedding, which is around a 2.5 hour drive there and back. Gary was our driver and made sure that both journeys were pleasant, relaxing, comfortable and stress-free. It was an absolute pleasure to journey with Gary and Aardvark and I would recommend their services to anyone; it was first rate. Can’t thank you enough.

Have Used Aardvark Travel now for two airport transfers and have been extremely pleased on both occasions. Received constant updates and confirmation throughout. Our driver, Glen, arrived on time and was very helpful both times. Overall I would highly recommend this company if you want a reliable and friendly service at a reasonable price.

S. C.

Communication was 100% . Richard messaged me with drivers (Gary) details on the day and also the day we were due back. Gary was on time and polite and driving was smooth and safe. I would 100% recommend Aardvark and definitely use again.

N. S.

Richard went above and beyond for our Stansted Airport pick up and for that we are beyond grateful!

We used Aardvark travel to/from Heathrow. Communication was excellent. We have got the drivers’s detail the day before which was reassuring. The driver was on time. Reliable service and affordable price. We definitely use them again.

J. K.

Fantastic airport transfer and taxi service. Very reasonably priced, professional attitude and most importantly incredibly reliable. Even though our flight was late (2 hours) and the M25 was shut our driver was unphased. Great company and we’ve been with 3 or 4 of their drivers now.

L. K.

Great service from Richard and his team. Good communication throughout from booking until the end of journey. We are a big group and it’s amazing that we (people and many luggages) all can fit into the 7-8 seater! We will definitely use Aadvark Travel again.

L. S.

We have used Aardvark a few times now for our airport trips to Stansted, Gatwick and Heathrow.

Excellent service from these guys! Very early morning pick up in Great Bentley then onto Great Notley for another pick up before dropping us off at Stansted. Collected us from Stansted on our return, clear instructions on where to meet. Great communication throughout, would highly recommend!

S. P.

Have used Aardvark Travel a number of times and always received a super reliable and friendly service. Always our first choice when we need transport to an airport or event.

C. C.

Used the guys to and from Heathrow, reliable and reassuring (phoned and text a couple of hours in advance to confirm details). Friendly drivers, couldn’t ask for more

D. B.

We've used Aardvark's services for a number of years now; for single person airport runs through to a family of 6 all with large cases. He is always punctual to arrive, can accommodate our luggage, and always gets you to your airport of choice on time. One time we even forgot our pushchair - and given his knowledge of shops and supermarkets close to airports, he was able to take a detour so we could buy another, and save the (holi)day. Would recommend to anyone!

M. B.

Excellent journeys to and from Heathrow. Driver Andy was on time, friendly, courteous, and helpful. I would thoroughly recommend Aardvark Travelo to anyone looking for airport or other long distance travel.

G. F.

Great service. Glen has been very kind and patient, helping me deal with Stansted chaos/delay.

O. S.

I would like to thank Aardvark Travel for their great services and I cannot recommend them enough.

Have used many times for various concerts, school and college runs, airport jobs. Always professional and courteous and reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend. Lovely personal touch as well when going to concerts and happy to play the music of said artists - even if they don't like them!!! Customer satisfaction and happiness is high on their agenda.

T. F.

We booked AadvarkTravel Colchester to take us from Colchester to South London and return same day to visit our daughter and to see their new flat. We departed Colchester on time in the morning and were collected in London on time in the evening. Comfortable transport was provided with friendly, courteous service provided throughout by Richard our driver. Highly recommend for longer journeys and will certainly will use again next time required.

M. W.

Great service, start to finish. Highly recommend Aardvark travel

s. r.

I regularly fly to and from Stansted and wouldn’t want to use any other taxi company. Reliable, helpful and so friendly.

M. M.

Excellent service, will definitely use again. It was great to see Richard as soon as we walked through customs.

M. M.

We used Aardvark Travel/ Richard for the first time last week to get to and from the airport. We chose them because of their great reviews, quick response and competitive price. They were very professional and reliable and there was very good text/email communication from them throughout. Would 100% recommend! and will be using next year!

B. K.

We have been using Aardvark travel for about 2 years now. Great people always on time, great communication. They are cheaper than train tickets for more 2 people or more, you don't have to carry luggage from train to train. After a long flight it is great to have someone waiting to take you right to your door. Great value for the money. My wife and I use them 2 and from Colchester for every trip we take.

D. H.

Really helpful and friendly service and really genuine truth worthy drivers. Thanks Richard you are a star!

P. M.

Great company, with the cheapest rates that I know of. The staff are excellent very polite and helpful. I have always had Nikki and Richard and they have been great. Nikki particularly is brilliant and goes out of her way to help even at a moments notice. If this company can and staff can help you they will and at excellent rates.

B. D.

We have been using Aardvark Travel/ Richard for all our drop offs and pickup for over 6-7years . In short, that says it all- as we don't even bother looking for anyone else . Richard or any of his colleagues -Nikky , Glen are all very professional , Prompt in arriving or responding to your messages and very courteous. We feel very safe and our children are able to relax in their vans and enjoy . Communication is key and we thoroughly value that as especially if there is any change of plan, it is communicated and acted upon . They are very competitive in terms of pricing (but to be honest ,we value their service and hence don't necessarily look for the cheapest one). Overall , we thoroughly recommend Richard for all your travel needs.

J. B.

Friendly driver and very fair prices. Would recommend to anyone!

E. A.

Excellent service! Very professional and extremely scrupulous in respecting all Covid-19 safety measures to ensure a pleasant and comfortable journey to Heathrow! Good value for money and perfectly on time!

A. T. A.

Aardvark Travel is amazing! Richard Ford is a true gentleman, kind, helpful and calming and I am very proud to say that he executed everything travel-wise on my wedding day perfectly! I feel very honoured to have been the first wedding of Aardvark Travel. Richard made sure the van was spotlessly clean, looked very smart in his suit, went the extra mile by making sure I always had an umbrella over me on a rainy day and did all the fiddly bits of putting our car ribbon on. He was early and hit the nail on the head time wise from start to finish; first taking some of my wedding party to the venue, coming back for me and my Dad, taking me and my Groom to our reception venue and then in the evening picking some of my wedding party up again for home; so they could enjoy their evening. Thank you so so much Richard and thanks for also helping throw confetti when we needed someone, you are a superstar. I highly recommend Aardvark travel, really reliable, safe, comfortable and friendly, happy service 😊👍🏻 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

J. W.

Best airport transfer taxi company I've used! They kept me informed every step of my journey and went above and beyond to make sure my experience was a positive one. Nikki even asking if there was anything I needed on the way home from the airport. Bottle of water supplied as I had run out. Thank you for making the airport transfers both ways as painless as possible.

W. B.

Once in a lifetime trip to elephant watch camp in Kenya, all facilitated and made easy by Aardvark Travel. Everything from outbound travel from U.K. right through to return, including air travel, taxis to and from airports, liasing with the Elephant Watch camp etc. was all stress free and seamless.
