Woodside essentials

Woodside is rural by design: horse properties, private lanes, redwood canyons and very few streetlights, all within a few minutes of I-280. The village around Woodside Road and Canada Road is small, and many homes are a long way down private roads where a GPS pin is not much help.

Golden Eye Limo serves Woodside mostly by the hour. Residents reserve a chauffeur for days in the city, appointments and visiting guests. Hosts book vehicles to bring guests to events at private estates. Visitors come for Filoli's gardens, the wineries along Skyline Boulevard and breakfast meetings in the village. Our chauffeurs confirm access in advance and choose vehicles that suit the roads.

Private estate events

Fundraisers, garden parties and celebrations at private Woodside estates often have parking for only a handful of cars. The usual answer is a shuttle: guests park at an agreed off-site location or are collected from their hotels, and a Sprinter or several SUVs run a loop to the house on a schedule. We plan the timing with the host, put one point of contact in charge on the day, and make sure the last guests get home.

Filoli and the Skyline wineries

Filoli's house and gardens draw visitors from across the Bay Area, especially in spring. Up on Skyline Boulevard, the Santa Cruz Mountains wineries offer tastings with views across the bay. Skyline is a winding two-lane road with steep drop-offs and fog that rolls in quickly, which is exactly where a professional driver earns their keep. Book hourly and the chauffeur waits while you visit.

As-directed days

For days with several stops, a chauffeur on an hourly booking follows your plan as it changes and waits in between: a morning appointment at Stanford, lunch in Menlo Park, an afternoon in San Francisco. It is also an easy way to look after visiting guests who would otherwise be renting a car to find their way down unlit lanes.

Arriving discreetly

We confirm gate codes, private road access and turnaround space before the day, and arrive without idling at the gate. Chauffeurs are discreet by default and sign NDAs on request.
