Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book a ride?
We recommend booking your transfer or hourly hire service at least 72 hours in advance. If you don’t have that much time, you can request an urgent transfer — we’ll let you know as soon as possible whether we can confirm it.
What pick-up time should I specify for the transfer?
If your transfer starts from an airport or railway station, please specify your flight or train arrival time as the start of your transfer. This helps the driver organize the meeting more accurately.
If your transfer starts from a hotel to an airport, please indicate the time you wish to be picked up at reception. You’ll need to calculate it yourself, allowing extra time for check-in. We recommend adding about 3 hours before your flight’s departure. For example, if your flight leaves at 14:00 and the trip takes 1 hour, your pick-up time should be 10:00.
How do I know if my order has been accepted?
After submitting your booking, you’ll receive an email with all trip details and your order status as “Waiting”. Once we receive and confirm your payment, the status will change to “Accepted”, and you’ll receive another email confirmation.
If you don’t receive the confirmation email, please contact our support team at office@welcome.taxi.
How do I change my booking?
To make changes to your booking, please contact our support team at office@welcome.taxi.
Important note: Requests for changes made less than 72 hours before your trip may be declined.
How can I cancel my booking?
You can cancel your booking in two ways:
- Via the booking page on our website — use the cancellation number provided in your booking voucher, at least 72 hours before the trip.
- By contacting our support team if it’s less than 72 hours before your ride.
Important note: In case of urgent cancellation, we may not be able to refund your deposit. The free cancellation period is stated in your confirmation email.
What should I do if my flight is delayed?
If your flight is delayed by less than 30 minutes, the driver will adjust their arrival time automatically.
If the delay is longer, please inform the driver directly (their phone number is in your confirmation voucher) or contact WelcomeTaxi Customer Support at office@welcome.taxi. Please include your order number and the new arrival time.
Important note: The driver may charge an additional fee for extended waiting time.
How will I find my driver?
For airport transfers, if you’ve added the meet-and-greet option to your order, the driver will meet you in the arrivals area — right after passport control and baggage claim. You’ll see a name sign with your first and last names (or custom text, if specified in your booking).
Important note: We strongly recommend adding the meet-and-greet option to your airport transfer booking.
For hotel pickups, the driver will wait for you in the hotel lobby. Detailed meeting instructions and your driver’s contact number are provided in your booking confirmation voucher.
How can I be sure that my driver will pick me up?
WelcomeTaxi guarantees that your driver will do their best to meet you on time.
Both you and the driver will have each other’s phone or WhatsApp number. Please keep your mobile phone switched on at the time of pickup. If you can’t reach the driver, contact our support team immediately.
I can’t find my driver. What should I do?
If you can’t find your driver, please double-check the name signs again — the driver may have missed you in the crowd.
Try calling or messaging the driver via WhatsApp. If there’s no response within the meeting time, contact our support team.
If necessary, go to the airport’s Information Desk to arrange a local taxi to your destination.
Important note: If the driver fails to meet you, we will refund your payment.
What Our Customers Say
Italy
Vincenzo was excellent
Planning transport around Arco and the Sarca valley
Arco is a destination in its own right, with a historic centre below its castle, climbing areas and access to the landscapes of Garda Trentino. It is inland from the lake, so an accommodation described as being near Lake Garda is not necessarily beside the waterfront. Confirm the town, street and property entrance before arranging a transfer. This is especially useful for apartments, campsites and accommodation outside the centre.
WelcomeTaxi arranges pre-booked private transfers in Arco for confirmed hotel, station, business and regional journeys. A direct car can be useful when travelling with several bags or when your address is away from a convenient bus stop. Provide the party size, luggage and full itinerary before booking so that the requested service can be assessed rather than assumed.
Historic-centre pickups and accommodation access
The castle, historic streets and surrounding town create different arrival needs. A booking to a central accommodation should identify where the vehicle can stop, particularly if the host recommends a nearby parking area or reception point. Do not assume every doorway is accessible to every vehicle. Ask the property for entrance instructions and share them with the booking details.
For a departure, choose a meeting place that you can reach with your luggage and confirm the time. If several people stay at different addresses, list each pickup when requesting the service. Additional stops change the journey and should be included in the accepted itinerary. Keep a working contact number available for practical communication on the day.
Climbing holidays and bulky equipment
Arco is known for climbing and other outdoor activities. Transport planning should distinguish the journey to accommodation from access to the starting point of an activity. A road transfer is not a guided climbing or hiking service, and it does not establish whether a trail, crag or facility is open. Check those arrangements with the appropriate operator.
Describe climbing bags, bicycle cases and other oversized items before selecting a vehicle. The number of passenger seats does not by itself confirm equipment capacity. Give the quantity and approximate dimensions, including ordinary suitcases. If child seats are required, request them in advance and wait for confirmation of the suitable arrangement.
Regional buses, railway connections and private transfers
Regional buses offer connections around the northern Lake Garda area and towards Rovereto, where passengers can use the railway network. A train-and-bus journey can work well when the timetable fits and the accommodation is close to a stop. Check the complete route for your travel date, including the last local connection and the time needed to change with bags.
A private station transfer is an alternative when arriving with equipment, travelling as a group or continuing to an address away from the main stops. Specify Rovereto station and the train's arrival details if that is your actual connection. If using another station, enter its full name rather than selecting one merely because it is geographically nearby.
For journeys focused on the lakeside resort, see the separate page about transfers in Riva del Garda. Arco and Riva can be part of the same itinerary, but their hotel locations and access arrangements differ. A rental car may also suit an independent holiday if you have considered parking and the places you intend to visit.
Airport access without duplicating your journey
Verona Villafranca Airport is a practical gateway for the northern Lake Garda area. Its separate airport page explains onward transport and arrival planning. For Arco, the essential booking detail is the complete destination address and any equipment you are bringing. Do not choose a generic lake destination when your accommodation is in the Sarca valley.
Public transport can combine the airport bus to Verona Porta Nuova, a train to Rovereto and an onward regional bus. Compare that whole sequence with a direct transfer, taking account of the flight time and bags. For a departure transfer, allow for traffic and the airline's airport requirements; journey estimates are not guaranteed arrival times.
Chauffeur and longer-distance arrangements
For meetings or several planned stops, request chauffeur service with the start and finish addresses and expected duration. Explain whether the vehicle should wait or whether separate transfers are needed. Long-distance journeys can be considered with a complete route, subject to availability. Confirm waiting, stops and special requirements in the accepted booking, and request an English-speaking driver where needed.
