Getting from Cagliari Airport to the Heart of City: A Practical Review
Traveling in Sardinia often means juggling flights and transportation, and finding a dependable transfer service can significantly ease your journey. This particular transfer from Cagliari Airport to Cagliari city touts itself as a “trusted company with driver,” operating across all major Sardinian airports. With a rating of 4.5 out of 5 from 8 reviews, it’s clear many travelers find it a solid choice—though, like any service, it’s not perfect.
I was particularly drawn to the fleet of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, which signals a focus on comfort and reliability. The drivers’ ability to speak good English and offer 24/7 assistance are features that can turn a potentially stressful airport pickup into a smooth experience. Two things that stood out as especially appealing: the luxury vehicles ensure a comfortable ride, and the multilingual support offers peace of mind for non-Italian speakers.
However, the reviews reveal some hiccups—mainly a notable mix-up at a hotel and a missed transfer, which remind us no service is immune to errors. While most reviews glow about the attentive service—like one passenger mentioning their late plane was no problem—the less positive reviews highlight the importance of confirming pickup details and managing expectations.
If you’re planning to use this transfer, keep in mind that bookings are usually made about two weeks in advance, and the ride is relatively quick—10 to 25 minutes—making it a quick, efficient way to start or end your trip. The pricing at $80.95 per group (up to 7 people) offers substantial value when considering the comfort and convenience offered.

What to Expect: The Ride, the Drivers, and the Service

Your pickup will be from Cagliari’s main airport, with the driver meeting you and helping with luggage—typical of private transfers. The journey into the city is short, usually 10 to 25 minutes, but the ride feels more like a luxury chauffeur experience rather than a quick shuttle.
The vehicles, Mercedes-Benz, are fully equipped with all comforts—think plush seats, climate control, and space for luggage. Many travelers appreciate the attention to detail, knowing they’re riding in a vehicle that’s well-maintained and modern. The drivers, who are bilingual, aim to be attentive and considerate—one reviewer called the service “excellent” and appreciated the late plane adaptability.
Be aware, that child seats are an extra service if you are traveling with little ones. If you need them, it’s best to request in advance. Also, service animals are allowed, which is a thoughtful addition for travelers with pets. The service’s flexibility extends to night shuttles for clubs or events and exquisite excursions, should you wish to explore beyond just the airport transfer.
Booking and Logistics: What You Need to Know

Most travelers book about 16 days in advance, probably to secure availability during busy travel seasons. You receive confirmation at the time of booking, which helps with planning. The mobile ticket system streamlines the process—no paper needed—just show your confirmation on your device.
The price of around $80.95 per group makes this a cost-effective choice for up to 7 travelers, especially considering the Mercedes luxury and the convenience of door-to-door service. The service is near public transportation, so if you’re arriving into Cagliari by train or bus, you can coordinate your plans easily.
While most reviews are positive, it’s worth noting that one customer experienced a no-show and was unable to get a refund after reporting the issue. This highlights the importance of confirming your pickup time and providing clear instructions. The free cancellation policy allows you to cancel up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund, offering flexibility if your plans change.
Who Will Really Appreciate This Service?
This transfer service is ideal for small groups or families wanting a high-end experience without the hefty price tag. It’s perfect if you prefer private, door-to-door service in a comfortable Mercedes and value English-speaking drivers. Travelers arriving late or leaving early will appreciate the 24/7 assistance.
However, if you’re on a tight budget or travel solo, you might find alternative options like shared shuttles or public transport more economical, but possibly less comfortable or direct. For those who want to start or end their Sardinian adventure in a smooth, stress-free way, this service offers excellent value and reliability.
