Opening your door to arriving in style. 1800GotLimos.com can help you find the right limo services or chauffeured airport limousine transportation option for your event. Whether you are going to the airport, planning a wedding or prom, or headed to the big game, it is important that you get the best vehicle and service for your money. There are many factors to consider when booking a limo service. We hope this guide helps you get the most from your luxury limousine service experience.
Often times, the right vehicle can make all the difference - a stretch Hummer for your next bachelor party or a classic antique for riding off in style from the wedding. Ensure the vehicle you're getting has the space, features and look for your next event. Try to book a vehicle that has room for at least one to two more people than are in your party. Some companies provide music (radio or satellite radio), so ask in advance or be prepared to take your iPod or a mix CD with enough music to last the whole ride. Also ask about features like the seating arrangement and luggage capacity for large group vehicles. Not sure which is the best ride for you? we can arrange a coolpix full photography studio in your packages if you wish.

- Get the whole price
-
Always make sure you are checking prices apples-to-apples between services. Each limousine company will generally have their own unique pricing policies. Most companies offer services priced by the hour - but may also offer flat/guaranteed rates for airport rides or sometimes all-inclusive packages. Pay attention to "add on's" like fuel surcharges or other services fees not included in the base price. FYI, it is customary to tip drivers 18-20% of the base price. Most companies automatically charge a driver tip, while some leave it to the customer to decide. Be sure you get the full price up front when weighing your options.

- Packages

A package is often the best choice for special occasions like weddings, concerts, prom, sporting events or other ride types with a predictable start and end time. Packages will generally provide a set number of hours in a vehicle that fits your party size and event for a fixed, all-inclusive price. Some companies offer packages for every type of service and most give substantial "bulk rate" price breaks.
1 800 Got Limos.com service partners offer packages for all types of occasions and specially negotiated deals you can't find anywhere else.
- Reserve early - especially for big events
-
Start searching well before you need your limo services. For wedding limos, some people book 12-18 months in advance. Other events, like proms, are best to book a limo a few months in advance. In general, it is best to start looking 3-4 weeks before your event. After you've selected the right limo service provider, get confirmation in writing. For special occasions, it's generally a good idea to contact your limo service provider a week before the event, just to ensure everything is confirmed.1 800 Got Limos.com allows you to get quotes and reserve limo rides as far as 24 months in advance.
- Safety first
-
The most important thing to consider when booking a limo service is safety for yourself and your party. Legitimate limo companies need to be registered with their state (US only), have the proper levels of insurance and be properly licensed. Never book a limo with a company that can't promptly show you their licensing and insurance credentials - don't take chances.
