How to choose the right limousine service?

To know how to choose the right limousine, various criteria must be taken into account: the occasion, number of people, number of hours, or distance.

Most luxury taxi and limousine companies will need to know the type of event for which they will be hired: birthdays, weddings, etc. to be able to offer the specialized service and guarantee the best possible experience.

The more detailed the information, the better proposals they can offer us and surely the more successful

Type of events that limousines provide

Limousine companies usually offer their rates depending on the type of event.

• Airport transfers
• Wedding
• Departures at night
• Birthday
• Tours with drinks around the city,
• Concerts
• Promotions
• Meetings with clients

All limousine companies have some fixed and variable rates, also times and days with higher rental / hour rates. Usually the highest rates are on Friday nights, Saturdays and holidays and the eve of holidays.

Prepare the details for your limousine reservation

Since most companies charge by the hour, it is important to organize events and calculate the time we need to rent: so that we do not run short or have hours left over. It is also important to know the number of people who are going to participate. Limousines have different capacities and it must be ensured that the one required has the appropriate capacity for the number of people.

Apart from the regulatory capacity, we must consider that if we want to be able to move through the limousine, for example to serve drinks, or take the popular "selfies", we must foresee if we need more seats than we are people. If we cannot find something tight and the feeling of luxury, exclusivity and glamor can be literally overwhelmed.

There are as many luxury vehicles as one can imagine but we usually find these models and capacities

Types of luxury taxis and limousines:

• Sedans (usually Mercedes brand)
• Limousines for 6 passengers (they are calculated for 4 passengers to go comfortably)
• Limousines for 8 passengers (they are calculated for 6 passengers to go comfortably)
• Limousines for 10 passengers (they are calculated for 8 passengers to go comfortably)
• Limousines for 12 passengers (they are calculated for 10 passengers to go comfortably)
• 14-22 passenger SUV limousines, typically Navigator, Escalade, or Excursion.

• Minibus limousines 14 to 22 passengers
• Bus limousines from 28 to 35 passengers

Value for money of limousine rental.

Not all limousine services are the same. Price shouldn't be the only deciding factor. Similar to hotels, luxury taxi and limousine rental companies offer different levels of services. It is interesting to know both the service and time you want and the experience you are looking for: a romantic, luxury, exclusive service, a casual party, a deliberately tacky party...

A limousine for every type of service

Sometimes the type of vehicle can make a difference: A Hummer limousine where everyone is tight may not matter if a prom is taking place, but we will not use it for a wedding celebration in style where perhaps it will be more suitable A classic limousine in which going roomy without the bride's dress wrinkling or treading and the parents being comfortable is a priority.

Limousine service packages.

Normally on special occasions, such as weddings, concerts, promotions, the service pack is a good choice. When it comes to events with a limited duration, which start at one hour and end at another and have certain characteristics that the packs already have, some services that are grouped together tend to be much better than contracted separately or improvised.

These packs include a hiring time that usually has the duration of these types of events.

Book a limousine service ahead of time

Especially for events where you may need more than one vehicle, you have to book in advance. For weddings, for example, a forecast of 12 to 18 months is calculated, but in general they are usually requested 3-4 weeks in advance.

When making the reservation, ask for written confirmation just in case and call a week in advance to see that everything is going well and is still planned and confirmed.

 

Compare luxury taxi and limousine companies

It is important to listen to all the offers of the companies. You can find companies online in a simple way, on their websites or in a directory that groups together several providers.

We advise you to type the type of vehicle and city in the search engine.

The attention received by phone says a lot about the type of company. Ask everything you want without fear and check the treatment in the response to your requests. Do not forget to ask about the rates and also if there is a deposit and cancellation fee for the service, how much an extra hour costs, what is included: if the limousine includes any material (alcohol, music, tickets to discos or clubs, etc.) or do they offer a free service ... and finally ask what we have pointed out before, license, insurance, etc.
