Washington DC and the surrounding areas are one of the most history-rich parts of the United States to visit.  With so much to do, and so many beautiful places to see, you need to book at least a week or more to be able to take it all in.  And plan to do a lot of driving if you want to explore on your own.  But if you’d rather ride than drive, and aren’t keen on public transportation or phone app car services, but aren’t sure you really need a limo, we’ve got a list of 10 reasons why you might want to consider one, instead of those other options. 1. You get to ride in a Limousine! And that’s something that all ages enjoy! 2. Riding in a limousine gives you the freedom to sit back, relax and enjoy the company of your friends or family, in a private, quiet and luxurious environment. 3. If you enjoy having an adult beverage or two with your friends, having a reliable designated driver chauffeur at you service is definitely the way to go.  Plus, it’s legal to drink in a limousine.  Not so with public transportation or amateur car services. 4. If you have kids, enough said.  They love limos! 5. You get the V.I.P. treatment usually reserved for DC bigwigs! 6. A professional with knowledge of the city is behind the wheel. 7. You can continue the party after the event, or on the way to the next stop! 8. Corporate meetings are much more productive, with room to work on the way. 9. There is no better way to get in/out of the DC area airports than a limousine. 10. As we mentioned at the beginning, if you want to take in all the sites that DC has to offer, doing so in a luxury limousine, with an experienced guide navigating through the city, you can’t go wrong with a limo.  No set “tour routes”.  You go where you want to go, stay as long as you want to stay, or if you’d rather not plan things out yourself, sit back and let your personal tour guide take you to the best spots. So if any or all of these sound like a good idea to you – whether you’re a tourist or a local – check out our limo fleet, or submit a free online limo price quote request, and get started planning your DC adventure!  We’re here 24/7 365 to serve you, always ready and willing to answer your luxury transportation questions, or help you to choose the perfect limo for any occasion.

It’s that time of year again.  As we write this, the holiday season is upon us, and for a lot of people that means it’s travel time.  Whether that’s a flight home to spend Thanksgiving with relatives, or maybe family is coming in to stay with you over Christmas or Hanukkah, there will more than likely be an airplane, train or car involved for you or your family members.  And to help make that a little less stressful, we have a few suggestions. Let’s assume, like most folks, your travel involves an airplane, and therefore an airport.  And what’s the last place you want to be during the holiday travel rush?  OK, maybe the mall is the last place, but what comes after that?  That’s right, the airport.  No one really enjoys traveling to and from – not to mention making their way through the airport, even in the best of times.  Traffic snarls, parking nightmares and long security lines are just some of the reasons.  And during the holiday travel season, you can almost guarantee these things will be 5 times as bad due to the increase in passengers. If you’re flying yourself, you want to allow double the usual recommended time to get to the airport, get through security, and get to your gate.  Trust us on this one.  And if you’re driving yourself, add an extra half an hour just to be sure you can find a parking space.  If you’re taking a cab, better book that way ahead of time, and call them first thing that morning to confirm they’ll be there. If you’re using one of those unregulated phone app “car services”, better reserve that car well in advance too, if you can.  And just hope you get a driver who knows the best way to get to an overcrowded Dulles.  The last thing you need on your travel day is a lost driver staring at his GPS trying to find an alternate route around the traffic. We already talked about reducing your airport stress level in a previous blog posting, and the information there is even more valid during the holidays.  So it bears repeating that if you want to take as much stress out of getting to and from the DC area airports, hire a professional.  A well trained chauffeur who knows the city, knows the routes (and the alternate routes) to get you there on time, and as relaxed as possible given the holiday bustle. And if it’s your family who’s coming to visit you for the holidays, wouldn’t you feel more comfortable and confident knowing a professional is handling their transportation to you?  It’s one less thing to worry about, and one small way to make the holidays a little less stressful. We can’t help with your in-laws arguing over dinner, or an overcrowded bathroom in your house, but at least you won’t have to add traffic and airport messes to your list of holiday chores.  So take a look at our DC limousine fleet page, submit your free limo price quote request, or just give us a call.  We’re here 24/7 to help you with your holiday travel transportation needs. Thanks for reading, and happy holidays!...

OK, guys.  It’s time for date night.  The kids are with the grandparents, and you and your wife hasn’t had a chance to go out without them in months.  You’ve already booked the restaurant, and picked up the movie tickets.  There’s only one thing left to do, to make this night perfect… Tonight is special, and you need to make it all that more special by adding a limousine to the mix.  Now it doesn’t have to be some insane 20 passenger Hummer limo or anything.  No, this time, for this occasion, something more subtle is needed.  A nice luxury sedan will fit the bill.  Something like the Mercedes S550 or a 7-series BMW will do nicely. The thing is, you’re not going to tell her you’ve booked a car until it shows up in front of the house on date night.  She’ll be expecting to drive the family car, or maybe take a cab or one of those amateur car services.  So just imagine the look on her face when a luxury sedan rolls up, driven by a professional chauffeur.   You’ll be whisked off to the restaurant in elegant style.  Your driver will take you right to the front, let you out, and be waiting for you when you’ve finished dinner.  No parking hassles, and no waiting for your car to be brought up by the valet (with some new scratches in it or door dings).  Oh, and you and your wife can enjoy that bottle of wine tonight, since neither of you will be doing the driving. After your dinner, your chauffeur will take you to the movie theater. The chauffeur will be waiting for you two when you come out.  Again, no parking issues, no traffic hassles, just a quiet relaxing ride all night. The only thing is… once your wife gets this sort of treatment, it’s going to be tough selling her on the family sedan and McDonald’s! You’ve been warned! If you like the sound of this plan, take a look at our DC limo fleet page to get some ideas, then submit your free online limo price quote, and you’ll be on your way to a fantastic night out with the one you love. Thanks for reading! ...

Whether you’re just visiting Washington DC for a weekend, or you are a resident, you really owe it to yourself to see as much as you can while you’re there.  Obviously there’s no shortage of national monuments and buildings to see, but perhaps after a day or two of that, you’ll be interested in something a little different. We’re talking about wine tasting tours here.  Maybe that’s not something that immediately comes to mind when you’re in DC, but it really should be, as there are some outstanding wineries in the area, such as Boxwood Winery, Barrel Oak Winery, and RdV Vineyards, to name just a few.  You’ll find these and more on the Washingtonian website, and US News. So, once you’ve decide on which ones you want to visit, you might want to consider alternatives to driving yourself, since that’s not exactly the most convenient thing to do in a town like Washington DC, where parking is expensive, traffic is heavy, and navigation to the various wineries can be daunting. Since this is probably not something you’re going to get the chance to do very often, why not make your wine tasting that much better, relaxing and safer by booking a luxury sedan, SUV or coach for your day out?  No set destinations – it’s up to you.  Visit the locations you want to, or let our experienced chauffeurs help in that regard.  Then essentially sit back and enjoy the ride.  It’s your car, your day, your decision. Large group or small, we have a wide variety of luxury vehicles in our fleet. Sip a glass of wine while cruising through beautiful wine country.  No parking hassles, no navigation planning.  Just you, some soft music, the scenery, and the wine. If this sounds like something you’d like to try, give us a call, check out our website, or submit a free limo price quote request.  The start your DC wine tour adventure to remember. Thanks for reading.  Enjoy the wine!...

Ask anyone you know what occasions they think of when they hear the word, 'limousine', or 'limo', and they will probably respond; wedding, prom, bachelor party, birthday party, or a night on the town.  Yes, those are all common uses for a limousine, but one use that is frequently overlooked, is that of corporate and executive travelers. Airport transfers, transportation to and from meetings, or maybe taking the office staff out for dinner after a particularly good week are just some uses that limousine services can be applied too. All the typical limousines that are available for the wedding/party clients are also available for executives.  They do not all have to have flashing neon lights or a ear blasting sound systems.  Understated Lincoln Town Cars or Lincoln MKTs are generally preferred over a big flashy super stretch limo when it comes to corporate travel.  A party bus can be configured for corporate use too, which could come in handy for a corporate weekend retreat. We mentioned airport transportation.  That’s a very popular use of limousines.  Why take a unpleasant taxi when you can travel in style and comfort in a luxury sedan or executive SUV?  It sure beats those “amateur car services’ where you never know what or who you’ll get the car with.  With us you’ll get a professional chauffeur who knows where he’s going, knows how to keep a low profile, and knows how to give you the best trip possible. If this sounds good to you, take a look at our website where you can see our limousine fleet to help you figure out what vehicles would work for you.  We’re also available any time to talk, should you have any questions. Thank you for reading! ...

You have a business trip coming up.  You’re a frequent flyer and travel weekly. You know the routine. Plan ahead and get to the airport at the crack of dawn. Obviously, there are plenty of transportation choices when it comes to getting to DC area airports.  You could drive yourself, take a cab, take a bus, or use an amateur phone application car services, but is that really ideal? Why stress out even more about worrying about how to get to the airport. Driving yourself is the worst choice because you have to wait in traffic, then park in their over-priced parking lots (assuming the lots are not full when you get there).  Then during your entire your trip, you will probably be worrying is my car safe, is it still there, or will it be broken into? So you said, okay skip driving, lets take a cab? Sure, they’re everywhere, and in most cases will get you there.  But it’s a gamble, since you never know who will show up, what condition the vehicle is in, and whether or not they know where they’re going – will they take the fast way, or the long way? You also don't know how long you will be waiting for the taxi too. Then on your return trip, you will have to worry about the same issues getting back home. Driving, and Cabs are not an ideal choice, so we decide, what about the bus? Providing if the bus is on time, and you left early enough to try to make it, is it worth it after all those stops? You never know how much traffic will be, how many stops the bus will take, and that might delay you which will cause worry about you missing your flight. Also, is the bus a comfortable or relaxing experience? Do you really need to ask? So now you have your last option, the dreaded amateur phone-app car service? You will definitely get a ride, but who will show up? and when they do show up, will they know the Washington DC area enough to drive without staring at the GPS the entire time? They might be inexperienced driving in DC, and this will make you late. You might get lucky.  The price is cheap, but this is a big part of why it’s cheap.  You get what you pay for.  It’s not exactly the best way to eliminate stress, and there's no certainty who you're getting. If you're still reading this, then you're probably asking, what are your options? Well have you thought about a limousine service? Well, it’s definitely going to be huge step above your previous options.  Sure, we’re a little biased since we are a limo company, but we’ve been doing this for a very long time, and we know how to get you to the airport in the best way possible.  We will show up on time, and navigate the most efficient routes – and we don’t need to use a GPS to do it.  Your ride will be a pleasant and relaxing experience. You will be at ease knowing that you have the privacy and comfort of your own ride. You’ll arrive at the airport on time. Then ready to deal with the lines and security hassles. (We're sorry that we can’t really help you there, but at least you will start that process in a better mood than if you had used any of the other transportation options that we talked about!) If this sounds good to you, check out our choices of limousine fleets (we have sedans and shuttles too!), or give us a call any time for more information.  We’re available 24/7/365, and our professional chauffeurs are ready to get you where you’re going, in comfort and in style.  The best part, when you return from your trip, we can be there for you too! Thanks for reading, and enjoy your trip! ...

It’s that time… time when the girls get out and hit the town without the boys.  It’s been a long week, and it’s time for a party.  Get the girls together, and start planning.  Will it be a restaurant, the club scene, a local bar, dancing?  or all the above? The night is yours, to do as you want.  The sky is the limit, as they say. You're young, live it up, and enjoy. The plans made, girlfriends gathered, but there’s just one more thing… who’s driving? Imagine, tonight there’s 9 of you, so option 1 – sharing a single car – isn’t going to cut it.  Option 2 is a car or cab, or in this case, multiple cars or cabs.  That leaves out riding together.  It also leaves out keeping the same cars all night, and if you drove in a separate vehicle, then you got to worry about finding parking for those vehicles. There is an option 3,  the ever popular “amateur car service”, but again… you’re gonna need more than one vehicle, and the odds are pretty good that whomever shows up won’t know the city, and will stare at his or her GPS the entire ride. You won't know how long you will wait for these types of services either.   No, tonight you need more than that.  You need style.  You need class.  You need luxury. You need a professional chauffeur who knows the city, knows the hot spots, and will be behind the wheel of a big enough luxury vehicle to transport all of you to where the night takes you. This will keep you with the party, and the party can continue without any disruptions. That’s the best way to do a girls night out.  And best of all, you’ve got a rolling party on wheels, so if your chosen destinations don’t turn out quite like you’d hoped, just head back to the limo and cruise Washington DC, Maryland, or Virginia to the next spot. It’s win win.  You can also enjoy a couple of adult beverage while in your limousine.  You and your girlfriends aren’t getting behind the wheel tonight, because you are all in the back, partying! When you’re ready to take “ladies night” to the next level, check out our fleet, and pick the perfect limousine.  Or if you need help, or have more questions, give us a call.  We’re here 24/7 to help you chose the best limo for your needs. Talk soon. Thanks for reading!...
