Whatever the destination, customer satisfaction guaranteed
I would just like to express my gratitude for each and every driver that assisted us this past weekend/week. I never had to worry about being on time as the shuttles were always there as arranged. Would you please give my appreciation to the drivers and admin staff. I would highly recommend your shuttle service to anyone visiting here.
We made use of them as a large group of tourists with multiple pick-ups and drop-offs across the Ballito area. The company went out of its way to make sure we were at our venues on time and picked up on time as well. They coped exceedingly well when a group of 30 people arrived, but even better when we departed at different times over two days. They were always there with extremely friendly and helpful staff who always went out of their way to accommodate our needs.
They were able to help me out last minute, late on a Saturday evening. Pick-up location was on a farm and quite in the sticks and they were still happy to help me. Great service and immediate response time. Very impressed.
We used this business for airport transfers from Ballito. What an excellent service! Easy, simple, efficient, kind, helpful. Very grateful to have found a great shuttle service. Great work guys.
We used Dolphin Coast Taxis yesterday to Kings Park Stadium. The driver was a few minutes early on the trip to the stadium and back. Very friendly and accommodating. Very well priced too.
These guys were fantastic, would definitely use them again when in Natal. The drivers were on time, polite and professional. Excellent service, thank you.
Before you book
Questions we are asked most
How much is a transfer from Ballito to King Shaka International Airport?
From R415 for one or two passengers in a sedan. Larger groups are priced by vehicle and passenger count, up to fifteen people in the mini-bus. We confirm the fare before the trip, so there is no meter and no surprise.
Which areas do you cover?
Ballito and the whole Dolphin Coast — Salt Rock, Sheffield Beach, Umhlali, Zimbali, Simbithi, Chaka's Rock, Tinley Manor, Shakaskraal, Groutville, Stanger, Blythedale, Zinkwazi and Prince's Grant — as well as Westbrook, Tongaat, Umdloti, Umhlanga, Mount Edgecombe, La Lucia, Durban North and Durban.
How many passengers can you take?
Up to four in the sedan and up to fifteen in the mini-bus. For a larger party we run more than one vehicle and keep the group together.
Can you take extra luggage, golf bags or surfboards?
Yes. Tell us what you are bringing when you book and we will send a vehicle with the room, or add a trailer if the load needs one.
Do you have a child seat?
Yes — ask for one when you book so the driver has it fitted before collection.
How far ahead should I book?
As early as you can, particularly for early-morning airport runs, school holidays and long weekends. For anything same-day, phone rather than email.
Do you run seven days a week?
Yes. Airport transfers run early and late, seven days a week. Outside normal office hours, phone rather than email and you will reach someone.
