FAQ

How do I pay for my private transfer?

You can pay your driver in cash or with a credit card, on arrival at your accommodation. No payment is normally taken upfront, unless your transfer is over €150.

Why are Solhop’s ratings so good compared to other transfer companies?

We care for every transfer we organize, with a rock-solid reliable service throughout Spain. Our user ratings are the highest of any transfer company in Spain. Check out over 5,000 of our ratings on TripAdvisor, Trustpilot or Google. Reliability and safety are of utmost importance to us. We want you to relax in confidence, knowing that your driver will be there on time.

What if my flight is delayed?

All flights are monitored by your driver using electronic devices with up-to-date flight information, so your driver will normally be aware of any delays.

How long will my driver wait if my flight is delayed?

In all cases your driver will wait for up 60 minutes after your scheduled flight arrival time. If your flight is delayed over 60 minutes, your driver will endeavour to be there for you whenever your flight arrives but this can be dependent on the schedule your driver has, as he may have another transfer booked shortly after and no available stand-in driver.

Best experience with Solhop in Madrid! Easy to book via e-mail also in the short term, nice clean van, reasonable prices.

SolHoP provides great service. When we arrived, the driver waited for us even if we were late. And when we drove back to airport, the driver arrived on time. The customer service responses through email were also very quick and they answered all my questions promptly and thoroughly. We will use this service again when we return.

ak_1357 (GR)

We were 5 people (inc. 3 kids) traveling from the center of Madrid to the Madrid airport. Given we had an early morning flight back to the U.S., we booked this taxi transfer. Booking was easy. The driver was very professional, on time, and the vehicle was very comfortable. I am glad we chose this service for an easy transfer at the beginning of a long journey home.

Carolnomad (GR)

The driver was really professional and I was delayed due to luggage issues so I called him and he waited patiently for me. The car provided was an upgrade and a nice surprise and the ride back was smooth. Nice welcome and fluent in english

TravelGuy0505 (GR)

We were 5 people travelling from our hotel in Granda to a hotel in Malaga. The booking process and journey were both very comfortable. The vehicle was on time and the driver was very professional and courteous. The 7 seater van was also of luxury class ( Mercedes).
