I booked a private round-trip airport…
I booked a private round-trip airport transfer through Ride and Goo, and unfortunately, both transfers were extremely disappointing.
On our arrival, communication about a last-minute change was very poor. Not everyone has reliable internet access while traveling, so if a company makes a change, the updated information needs to be communicated clearly and accurately and they need to confirm that the party received the notification. Just because they send a message at that point people may not be able to receive it. The driver/company was not clearly identified by the name Ride and Goo, and the name information we were given did not match what was actually being used. My family member searched high and low for over an hour trying to find the correct transportation. It was only after other transportation companies began helping that they were finally able to locate the correct driver.
For our return transfer, we contacted the company approximately five hours before pickup and asked to move our reservation from 4:30 PM to 4:00 PM. We were told 4:00 PM was too close to departure, but they could accommodate 4:15 PM. We were then sent a picture of a white van with a specific tag number and were told that they are coming. We waited outside, sent the company a picture showing exactly where we were, and still no vehicle arrived by 4:32 PM. At that point, we had no choice but to request an urgent taxi.
After we were already inside the taxi and leaving, a driver finally showed up and began yelling out the name. He was late and arrived in a different vehicle than the one we had been told to look for. When we explained that we had already waited and had to arrange another vehicle, the driver became argumentative and was yelling at us in front of the hotel. Thankfully, the staff at Ela Excellence Resort immediately stepped in, and the driver lowered his tone.
Overall, we booked a round-trip private transfer and had problems with BOTH pickups: one could not be located for over an hour, and the other simply did not arrive on time.
Looking back, I should have paid much closer attention to the reviews. Based on our experience, it appears that Ride and Goo relies on subcontracted drivers, and that is where the communication and service problems occur.
I would not trust this company with airport transportation and would not recommend them. When you are traveling, especially with family, you should not have to spend your time searching for a driver, arranging emergency transportation, or dealing with an angry driver because the original transfer failed to show up.
