Long distance chauffeur service
When the drive is three to five hours, a chauffeur usually beats the airport. No security line, no bag fees, no rental counter at the other end, and no gap between landing and actually arriving.
We pick you up at your door anywhere in the metroplex and drop you at the address you name, whether that is a Houston hospital, an Austin convention hall or a Galveston cruise terminal. We have run these routes out of Frisco since 1998.
Where we take you
Times below are from the Frisco and North Dallas area. Add roughly 30 to 45 minutes starting from Fort Worth or the southern suburbs.
Capitol business, conferences, and race weekends at Circuit of the Americas.
Medical Center appointments, energy corridor meetings, Hobby and Bush connections.
Riverwalk conventions, military installations, family trips.
Cruise terminal transfers for groups of any size, luggage included.
We also run to Waco, College Station, Shreveport, Oklahoma City, Corpus Christi, the Rio Grande Valley, Hot Springs and Branson. Six hundred miles from base is routine, and cross country motor coach charter is available on request.
Cruise transfers
The drive is about five hours, so most groups leave Dallas the morning before sailing or very early on sailing day. We build the pickup time backward from your boarding window, not forward from a guess.
A motor coach carries a full wedding party or family reunion in one vehicle. No caravan, nobody lost on I-45, no arguing about who rides with whom. Luggage bays hold what a cruise group actually brings.
Return transfers are the part people forget. Ships disembark on a schedule that shifts, so we hold the return date, watch the port, and build a window rather than a single time.
Book this one early. Cruise season fills our coaches faster than anything else we do, and motor coaches carry a 14 day cancellation window.
Where we pick up
Not on the list? Call us. We serve the whole metroplex. These are just the cities with their own page.
The comparison
Four airfares plus airport parking plus a rental at the other end often costs more than one vehicle, and the vehicle takes you door to door.
A three hour drive is three usable hours. A one hour flight is a five hour day once you count the drive to DFW, security, boarding, bags and the rental counter.
Golf clubs, trade show materials, cruise bags, instruments, sample cases. Bring what you need.
Leave at 6 AM or 6 PM. Stop for lunch. Add a second pickup. None of that is possible with a ticket.
Choosing a vehicle
Between sizes? Call us. Splitting across two vehicles is sometimes cheaper than moving up a size, and sometimes it is not.
Pricing
Long runs are quoted garage to garage, meaning the clock starts when the vehicle leaves our yard and ends when it returns. That is standard across the industry, and it is why a one way trip to Houston is not half the price of a round trip.
Overnight trips add the chauffeur's hotel and per diem. We tell you that figure before you book, not after. Every quote is written and confirmed in advance, so you will never see a charge on an invoice that was not in the quote.
For companies
Multi city runs are a specialty. A roadshow across Austin, Houston and San Antonio in three days works better with one chauffeur and one vehicle than with three rental cars and three sets of directions.
Corporate accounts get consolidated monthly billing, trip reports for expense reconciliation, net 30 terms with approved credit, and one named point of contact who knows your account rather than a call center.
Questions
Six hundred miles from Frisco as a matter of routine, which covers all of Texas plus Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and New Mexico. Beyond that, motor coach charter is available cross country on request.
For one or two travelers, usually not. For four or more, often yes, once you add up airfare, checked bags, airport parking and a rental car at the other end. Call with your group size and destination and we will give you a written number to compare against.
For a sedan or SUV, a few days is usually enough. For a Sprinter, two weeks. For a mini bus or motor coach, four to six weeks, and earlier for cruise sailings, graduation weekends and holidays. Group vehicles carry longer cancellation windows, so booking close to the date means the reservation cannot be cancelled without full charge. We tell you at booking when that applies.
Yes. Meals, a hotel, a second pickup, a detour to a site visit. Tell us at booking so the route and the time are quoted correctly.
Yes, and most clients book both directions at once. Return legs are easier to schedule and often priced better when they are part of the same reservation.
The chauffeur stays where you stay or nearby, and the trip includes their hotel and per diem. The same chauffeur takes you home. On multi day trips we can swap in a second chauffeur so hours of service rules are never a problem.
A commercially licensed chauffeur who has passed a background check and drug testing. Most of our chauffeurs have been with us between eight and fifteen years, which is unusual in this business and is the main reason our long distance clients keep coming back.
