Our clients say

Cathy C

We recently used GEC Transfers to take us to and from the airport in their immaculately clean and comfortable van. Best decision we made. After a stressful holiday, it was such a relief to see Andres’ friendly face waiting for us at the airport. And after some maniacal driving by overseas taxis, it was such a relief to sit back and relax while Andres calmly and carefully drove us home. We found the service to be reliable and extremely well priced. Highly recommend.

Maddi James

We had such a wonderful experience using this private driver service during our Queensland holiday! Andres, the owner, was absolutely delightful from the very first enquiry. He was responsive, communicated clearly and took the time to get to know us, sharing some great recommendations for local attractions. We booked multiple trips throughout our stay, and every experience was fantastic. The vehicles were exceptionally clean, and nothing was ever too much trouble. His drivers, Shirley and Raja, were also wonderful and made every journey comfortable and enjoyable. I couldn’t recommend Andres and his team highly enough. We wouldn’t use anyone else when visiting Queensland again!

Angie Kok

Great transfer service! Our driver was punctual, friendly and very professional. The journey was smooth and comfortable, and he was very helpful with our luggage and the kids. Highly recommended!

Angela Haughin

Third time using GEC Transfers – exceptional service every time. I can’t recommend this business enough.

Bonza’s Good Times

Andres is amazing, excellent communication, comfortable vehicles, extremely good personable service. We highly recommend his airport transfers and will definitely be using his service again.

Liling Ng

Andres is beyond amazing. He went over and out to help me, without even taking a single cent. He offered me options just so that the rest of my holidays would not be ruined (another tour company didn’t turn up for the pick up). I really cannot thank Andres enough. I 1000% recommend GEC. I’ve travelled to many countries, and this really is the best that I have encountered. Raja was such a great guy, so helpful and patient, and he picked us up at our accommodation.

Natalie Bilborough

Andres from GEC Transfers was very quick to respond to my enquiry. With short notice we needed a car transfer, and Andres was there waiting for us at arrivals. Beautiful clean new van, water and comfort. After 12 hours of travel we just wanted to get home. He even gave me an eye mask for my next trip – nice touch, thank you!
