Chauffeurs by the hour for Los Altos and Los Altos Hills: as-directed days, celebrations and nights out, and airport runs from your door.
Los Altos and Los Altos Hills are among the most residential parts of Silicon Valley: a walkable downtown around Main and State Streets, quiet neighbourhoods either side of Foothill Expressway, and large hillside properties in Los Altos Hills on roads that rideshare drivers rarely know. Our office in Sunnyvale is about fifteen minutes away.
Most of what we do in Los Altos is booked by the hour. Families reserve a chauffeur for a day of errands and appointments, for visiting parents or guests, or for an anniversary dinner in San Francisco. Groups book SUVs or a Sprinter for birthdays, reunions and evenings out. And there are the airport runs, most often to SJC or SFO.
Hourly and point-to-point rates are base rates; 20% gratuity, 10% fuel surcharge and 4% tax are added. Every total is confirmed before you book. See full pricing

As-directed service means a chauffeur and vehicle are reserved for you for several hours and follow your plan as it changes. A typical Los Altos day might include a medical appointment in Palo Alto, lunch downtown, shopping at Stanford Shopping Center and a school pickup, with the car waiting between each. It is particularly useful for older family members who no longer drive, or for visiting relatives who do not know the area.
Milestone birthdays, anniversaries, reunions and graduation parties often bring together a group who want to travel as one. A Sprinter seats a larger party with room to talk, and SUVs suit smaller groups. For dinners in San Francisco, wine-country days or a concert at Shoreline Amphitheatre a few miles away in Mountain View, the chauffeur drops you at the door and is waiting at a pre-arranged spot afterwards.
For events at the country club or at a private home, we can shuttle guests from a nearby parking area or hotel so that nobody has to hunt for space on a narrow residential street.
Hillside properties in Los Altos Hills often have long or steep drives, gates and limited turnaround space. Tell us about access when you book and we will confirm the route and choose a vehicle that suits the drive.
