Which service do I need?
A quick guide so you book the right service for your trip.
Quick rule of thumb: if you know exactly where you start and end and only need to get there once, pick a Transfer. If you want a driver waiting while you explore multiple places, pick the Private Driver.
The Swingo Promise
Most transfer services say "we'll do our best." We sign for it.
If your driver isn't there 15 minutes after your agreed pickup, we refund your ride in full and arrange a backup. No questions asked.
Issue mid-trip? Text +351 962 961 304 — answered by a real person in under 2 minutes during business hours. No apps, no chatbots, no "please hold."

Swingo is a Portuguese company operating since 2022 — not a multinational call centre. The team answers the phone directly. Every driver is a vetted employee, not a gig worker.

Questions
We track your flight in real-time using the flight number you give at booking. Your driver only leaves when your plane is on the ground. Up to 60 minutes wait is included free of charge — after that, €15 per 15 min.
At Lisbon Airport (LIS), your driver waits in the Terminal 1 Arrivals hall, right after you exit baggage claim, holding a sign with your name. You'll get the exact meeting point and the driver's phone number by SMS and email 24h before your arrival.
Just call or WhatsApp the driver directly (number sent 24h before). If you can't reach the driver, our 24/7 dispatch on +351 962 961 304 answers in under 2 minutes and locates them for you. You will never be left stranded.

Our standard van fits up to 8 large suitcases + 8 carry-ons for groups up to 7. Skis, surfboards, bulky items? Just tell us at booking — we'll make sure you have the right vehicle and equipment rack.
