Frequently Asked Questions

Is car service faster than the train?

It depends. The Acela train takes 1 hour 15 minutes, but you need to factor in getting to/from Penn Station on both ends (30-60 minutes total). With our service, you go directly from your door to your Philadelphia destination in about 2 hours total—often comparable or faster when you include all transit time.

Do you offer same-day round trips?

Yes! We offer hourly service where your chauffeur waits in Philadelphia, or we can schedule a return pickup for later in the day. For meetings lasting 4-8 hours, many clients prefer the hourly option to avoid multiple vehicles.

What about parking in Philadelphia?

One major advantage of our service—no parking worries! Your chauffeur drops you at your destination and handles all parking. For hourly service, we stay with the vehicle or find nearby parking. Center City parking can cost $30-50/day, which is included in our service.
