About Riz and XFA Cars

Who is Riz - and... XFA Cars?
Personal service, professional transport and a trusted team
Hello, I’m Riz, the founder of XFA Cars.
Over the years, I have helped thousands of international visitors travel comfortably and confidently around London and across the UK. What began with personally looking after individual travellers, couples and families has developed into a trusted private transport service supported by an experienced team of professional drivers and a wide range of vehicles.
I remain personally involved in XFA Cars. I help customers plan their journeys, recommend suitable vehicles and coordinate the details behind more complex travel arrangements. However, XFA Cars is not limited to one driver or one vehicle.
Through our trusted driver network, we can provide executive cars, people carriers, Mercedes V-Class vehicles, minibuses and coaches to meet different passenger, luggage and accessibility requirements. Whether you need one airport transfer or coordinated transport for a large group, we can put the right vehicles and drivers in place.
Trusted by international visitors - Many travellers first discovered me through UK Travel Planning, a respected travel resource and online community for people planning trips to London and the wider United Kingdom.
I have shared my experience through the UK Travel Planning website, podcast appearances and its Facebook community, helping overseas visitors understand airport travel, journey times and the practicalities of moving around the UK.
The recommendations and feedback I have received through UK Travel Planning, Facebook and Trustpilot reflect the principles on which I have built XFA Cars:
-
Clear and friendly communication
-
Reliable, punctual transport
-
Honest and practical travel advice
-
Clean, comfortable vehicles
-
Professional and courteous drivers
-
Personal support before and during each journey
We understand that international visitors may be unfamiliar with London’s airports, roads and travel distances. Our role is not simply to provide a vehicle - it is to make each stage of the journey easier.
From individual journeys to complex group transport - XFA Cars regularly arranges private transport for individuals, families, business travellers and groups. Our services include airport pickups, hotel transfers, cruise-port transport, corporate travel, wedding transportation, day tours and multi-day itineraries.
We can coordinate several vehicles operating at different times and locations, including monitoring incoming flights and adapting arrangements when travel plans change.
For one destination wedding in England, I organised the transportation for guests arriving at Heathrow Airport, travelling to their London hotels and later moving between London and the wedding venue in Chelmsford. This required a combination of vehicles and coaches, carefully scheduled around different arrival times and the wedding programme.
We have also coordinated transport for international delegates attending corporate conferences in and around London. Delegates arriving at Heathrow were collected and transported to several hotels by coach. Smaller vehicles were then used to take groups between their hotels and the conference venue, before returning them at the end of each day.
Some delegates extended their visit by booking private sightseeing tours to destinations including Windsor Castle, Stonehenge and Bath. We were able to coordinate their business transport and leisure travel as one joined-up service.
These are the types of arrangements where experience, communication and careful planning really matter.
The right vehicle for every journey - Every booking is different. Passenger numbers, luggage, flight times, accessibility requirements and the type of journey all influence which vehicle will be most suitable.
Our available transport options include:
-
Executive saloon cars
-
MPVs and people carriers
-
Mercedes V-Class vehicles or similar
-
Larger vehicles for groups and additional luggage
-
Minibuses
-
Coaches for conferences, weddings and organised group travel
-
Multiple coordinated vehicles when one vehicle is not suitable
We will always discuss your requirements before recommending a vehicle or transport plan.
More than an airport transfer - Although airport transport remains at the heart of what we do, many customers ask us to assist with their entire UK itinerary.
We can arrange:
-
Heathrow, Gatwick, London City, Stansted and Luton Airport pickups
-
Transfers between airports, hotels and private addresses
-
Corporate and conference transportation
-
Wedding and special-event transport
-
Southampton and Portsmouth cruise-port transfers
-
London sightseeing and day tours
-
Visits to Windsor, Stonehenge, Bath, Oxford and the Cotswolds
-
Long-distance journeys throughout England
-
Multi-vehicle and group transport coordination
For larger or more complicated requirements, we can develop a complete transport plan covering passenger groups, collection points, timings, vehicle allocation and return journeys.
A personal point of contact, backed by a professional team.
When you contact XFA Cars, you are dealing with a business that values personal service and accountability.
I take pride in the reputation I have established under my own name, and that same standard is expected from every driver representing XFA Cars. Our drivers are selected for their professionalism, reliability, driving experience and approach to customer service.
Whether we are collecting one family from Heathrow or coordinating vehicles for an international conference, our aim is the same: to make your journey comfortable, organised and stress-free.
If you are planning a visit to London or require transport for a group, conference, wedding or special itinerary, please contact us. Tell us what you need, and we will help you create the right transport solution.
