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

Highly recommended taxi service
Private Transfers and Chauffeur Service in Koper
Koper is Slovenia's largest coastal city and an important passenger port on the northern Adriatic. Located close to the Italian border, the city combines a historic Venetian-influenced centre with a modern commercial port, marina, beaches and convenient access to the rest of the Slovenian coast.
WelcomeTaxi provides pre-booked private transfers and chauffeur service in Koper for individual travellers, couples, families, cruise passengers, business visitors and groups. Transportation can be arranged between airports, hotels, private addresses, the passenger terminal and destinations throughout Slovenia and neighbouring Italy. Booking in advance is particularly useful when arriving on a cruise, travelling with luggage or continuing directly to another city.
Koper Airport Transfers
Koper does not have a major scheduled passenger airport of its own. For most international visitors, the most relevant commercial gateways are Trieste Airport (TRS) in neighbouring Italy and Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU) in Slovenia.
Trieste Airport is geographically the more convenient major airport for Koper and provides access to a range of European destinations. Ljubljana Airport is farther away but offers broader access to Slovenia's principal international aviation network.
A private airport transfer provides direct transportation from either airport to hotels, apartments, cruise facilities and private addresses in Koper without requiring passengers to combine several transport services.
Trieste Airport to Koper Transfers
Trieste Airport (TRS) is one of the most practical airport gateways for Koper because it lies across the Italian border in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region. Slovenia's official tourism information identifies Trieste Airport as a relevant gateway for travel to the Slovenian coast.
A private transfer from TRS provides direct cross-border transportation to Koper without requiring passengers to travel through central Trieste first. This can be particularly convenient for families, cruise passengers and travellers carrying substantial luggage.
Because the journey crosses an international border within the Schengen Area, travellers should still carry the appropriate identity and travel documents required for their trip.
Ljubljana Airport to Koper Transfers
Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU) is Slovenia's principal international airport and another important gateway for Koper. It lies north of Ljubljana and is connected with destinations across Slovenia by road, bus, taxi and shuttle services.
A private transfer provides direct transportation from Ljubljana Airport to Koper, avoiding the need to travel into central Ljubljana before continuing towards the coast.
This option is particularly useful when flight schedules to LJU are more convenient than those to Trieste or when Koper forms part of a wider itinerary through Slovenia.
Koper Cruise Port Transfers
Koper is Slovenia's principal cruise destination and receives passenger ships directly beside the historic city centre. The passenger terminal is within easy reach of the old town, making Koper a convenient starting point for both local sightseeing and excursions farther into Slovenia.
Private transfers can connect the cruise terminal with Trieste Airport, Ljubljana Airport, hotels and regional destinations. This can be especially useful for passengers beginning or ending a cruise, carrying luggage or travelling according to a fixed embarkation or flight schedule.
When arranging a cruise pickup, passengers should provide the vessel name, expected arrival time and onward destination.
Getting Around Koper
Koper's historic centre is compact and can be explored largely on foot. Tito Square, the Praetorian Palace, the cathedral, waterfront and marina are all within the central area.
Local buses and taxis provide transportation to residential districts and nearby coastal destinations. Private transportation becomes more useful when travelling with luggage, following a fixed itinerary or visiting several towns along the Slovenian coast during the same day.
A chauffeur service can also simplify journeys between Koper, Izola, Piran and Portorož without arranging a separate ride after every stop.
Chauffeur Service in Koper
Hourly chauffeur service is suitable for travellers who need a vehicle for several journeys during the same period. The driver and vehicle can remain available according to the booked schedule for sightseeing, restaurants, business appointments, wineries and other stops.
For cruise passengers, hourly service can be particularly useful for private shore excursions that combine several destinations before returning to the ship. Business visitors may also use chauffeur service for transportation between Koper, Trieste and commercial locations across the wider region.
Families and groups can reserve vans or larger vehicles so that everyone travels together throughout the itinerary.
Transfers from Koper to Piran and Portorož
Piran and Portorož are among the best-known destinations on the Slovenian coast. Piran is known for its Venetian architecture and historic waterfront, while Portorož is a major resort destination with hotels, beaches, spas and conference facilities.
Private transfers provide direct transportation from Koper hotels or the cruise terminal to accommodation and attractions in either destination. Door-to-door service is particularly convenient for travellers carrying luggage or combining several coastal towns within the same itinerary.
Hourly chauffeur service can also be used for a flexible day trip along the coast.
Transfers to Izola
Izola lies between Koper and Piran and is another attractive coastal town with a historic fishing harbour, marina, beaches and restaurants. It is close enough to Koper for convenient private transfers but distinct enough to form a separate destination within a coastal itinerary.
A private vehicle can connect Koper directly with hotels, private addresses and the marina in Izola. This can also be combined with onward travel towards Piran or Portorož.
Private Transfers from Koper to Trieste
Trieste lies just across the Italian border and is one of the most important nearby international destinations from Koper. The two cities share close geographic and historic connections and are frequently combined within the same northern Adriatic itinerary.
A private transfer provides direct transportation between Koper and hotels, railway facilities, the port and other addresses in Trieste. Cross-border door-to-door travel can be particularly convenient for passengers with luggage or fixed train and flight connections.
Transfers from Koper to Ljubljana
Ljubljana, Slovenia's capital, is one of the main long-distance destinations from Koper. The journey connects the Adriatic coast with the country's political, cultural and transport centre.
A private transfer provides direct transportation from Koper to hotels, railway stations, offices and private addresses in Ljubljana. It is also useful for travellers continuing onwards to Ljubljana Airport.
For families and groups, travelling in one vehicle can simplify the journey compared with coordinating several public transport connections.
Regional Sightseeing from Koper
Koper is well positioned for excursions beyond the immediate coastline. Travellers can use private transportation to explore destinations in the Karst region, the Slovenian interior and neighbouring northeastern Italy.
Hourly or full-day chauffeur service is especially useful when the itinerary includes several stops. Instead of following fixed bus or train schedules, passengers can plan the day around their preferred destinations and return to Koper according to the booked schedule.
Regional and Long-Distance Transfers from Koper
WelcomeTaxi can arrange long-distance transfers from Koper to destinations elsewhere in Slovenia and neighbouring regions according to route and operational availability.
Passengers can be collected from a hotel, cruise terminal, marina or private address and taken directly to the final destination in the same vehicle. This can be particularly convenient for families, groups and cruise passengers who prefer not to combine buses, trains and local taxis.
For itineraries involving several destinations, hourly, multi-stop or multi-day chauffeur arrangements may offer greater flexibility than a standard one-way transfer.
Why Pre-Book Instead of Taking a Regular Taxi?
Taxis are available in Koper and are practical for many short local journeys. A pre-booked private transfer is more suitable when transportation begins at an airport or cruise terminal, crosses an international border or requires a particular vehicle size.
Passengers can arrange the pickup, destination and luggage capacity before travelling. For longer journeys to Trieste, Ljubljana, Piran or other destinations, the complete route can also be organised in advance.
International visitors may prefer transportation with an English-speaking driver, particularly for airport transfers, cruise pickups and cross-border journeys.
Useful Travel Information for Koper
Koper is Slovenia's largest coastal city and lies close to both Italy and the neighbouring coastal towns of Izola and Piran. It is also the country's principal passenger cruise port.
Trieste Airport is the nearest major commercial airport serving the wider area, while Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport is Slovenia's principal international aviation gateway. Travellers should check the exact airport code before arranging transportation because the two airports are in different countries and involve different road routes.
When booking private transportation, provide accurate flight or cruise information, passenger numbers, luggage requirements and the complete destination address so that an appropriate vehicle can be arranged.
Book a Private Transfer in Koper
WelcomeTaxi offers pre-booked transportation for Koper cruise arrivals, airport transfers, hotel journeys, chauffeur hire and long-distance travel across Slovenia and the northern Adriatic region. Whether you need a transfer from Trieste or Ljubljana Airport, a private shore excursion or transportation to Piran, Portorož, Trieste, Ljubljana or another destination, your journey can be arranged in advance with a suitable vehicle and professional driver.
