AL K.

First time with this company and it won't definitely be the last. Bus was on time. Clean, functional power supply, clean rest room. Made 2 stops during this trip, one was to switch driver and the other was a 15min stop at the Delaware rest stop. Overall satisfied with service. Left Vienna station at 724am and arrived in NYC around noon.

Took this bus for the first time for a quick weekend getaway to New York and overall the experience…read morewas great. Below are the details... LORTON TO NYC.... So we got to the Lorton VRE station about an hour earlier than our 7:20am departure and I'm glad We did. The lot was surprisingly full for it being a Saturday. I highly recommend first time Vamoose users using the Lorton lot because of its convenience. Our bus arrived about 15min early and BILL was our driver. Weight of baggages weren't checked and neither were our id's; just verify your name and you're good. After filling up the bus in Rosslyn, we hit the road. Overall the trip took like 5hrs thanks to rain and traffic. No Vamoose staff are at the Lorton station...FYI. NYC TO LORTON... No hiccups getting the bus but beware if you catch the 4:30pm bus returning to Northern Virginia you will most likely hit traffic. Our trip took around 5-5.5hrs with traffic in NJ and DE. Bill again was our driver. THE VAMOOSE EXPERIENCE AND CUSTOMER SERVICE... Originally I had booked a 7:20am LORTON departure on a Saturday(8/23) with a return departure for Sunday(8/24) at 8:30pm but had to make a couple changes on the return. Sunday afternoon, after seeing everything we wanted to see we decided to attempt an earlier return. The Vamoose call center person politely put us three on the 6:30pm bus back to Lorton. We were happy with that. But once 3pm came around we again felt the urge to come back home...earlier. So we called back and again the call center was able to put us in a even EARLIER bus; the 4:30pm. Five stars for working with a undecided customer(me)! Changes were made at no extra cost. Bill, the driver drove very...spirited I must say :) maybe he was driving with both feet, I don't know but there was lots of panic breaking. It was okay though, he was overall a safe driver and got us there and back fairly quick. One stop each way for a quick restroom break. While at LORTON, this person thought she booked a Saturday Lorton to NYC trip when in reality it was scheduled for Sunday. The Vamoose staff at Rosslyn allowed her to stay on only because someone had missed the bus (that route was initially sold-out). Again, the Vamoose staff was very professional and courteous with her mistake. SUMMARY I highly recommend people use Vamoose and catch their buses leaving out of LORTON. You can't beat being able to park for free and not having to rely on the metro or a ride to catch the Rosslyn bus. Not to mention you'll be the first on the bus and get the best seats ;) As other users are saying, the regular buses are a bit bumpy but just bring some good headphones or ear plugs and you'll be good. Do yourself a favor and bring ear plus. Thanks Vamoose...see you again I'm October!

We missed our other bus and booked Vamoose last min. They are very organized. The NYC line was…read morealready forming when we made our way there. Check-in was quick. Our destination arrival time was 11:30PM. It was just me and my sister and it was pitched dark outside. The vamoose baggage handler asked us if we had a ride and we said we did. He was kind enough to hang around to wait w/ us until our ride came. He definitely didn't have to do that, but we were v grateful that he was there!

Summary in brief: Nothing fancy but I tried this bus round…read moretrip to NYC at the recc of a friend who takes it often. Busses were on time each way and the drivers are so friendly, focused on safety, and give routine announcements to keep everyone in the loop. On the way up, I thought wow, what a nice guy who's really good at his job. On the way back, new driver, just as nice, just as conscientious. I'm really impressed! If you don't want to deal with taking your car to the city, and are fine with no frills this is a great way to go. Longer details for fact-finding and trip planning: Amenities -seats are cushioned, -you get a bottle of water. -I would caution that while there is Free WiFi, it is spotty making it a bit challenging to get work done that requires a good internet connection (This was my intention and actually the main reason I decided not to drive myself). -I have been on cushier, fancier, and more expensive coaches for sure. It feels a bit cramped if the bus is full. On the way back I've got the 2 seats to myself and it's much more comfortable. -There are power outlets below the seat. - There is a cup holder in front of you. -There is no tray for your laptop. You'll need to put it on your lap. And if you've got someone next to you, bc the seats are tight, it's not soo easy to work. - There is one small restroom. Can't comment on cleanliness bc I didn't use it. -There is storage under the bus and very small overhead bins on the bus. Don't plan on taking copious luggage pieces. This bus is geared towards quick weekend travelers. For what I had (small suitcase, backpack, large purse), it was ok. Larger overhead bins would have been better though. -Again, drivers are awesome. Friendly, good drivers, conscientious, communicative, and care about safety. Price Again, it's nothing fancy but it's adequate transportation for a very reasonable twice. I spent about $25 each way. I believe the price can go a bit higher during peak travel times, like Sunday nights. I think it can also go a little lower, too. Locations in NOVA & NYC I chose this bus bc other methods of transport from Fairfax/Loudoun area is a PITA! I have done the drive to Reston, park, & metro into DC for bus or train. Toooo long and complicated! I'm from NYC- I like easy public transportation! There isn't a lot of accessibility from Loudoun besides flying out of Dulles which is more expensive for sure but sometimes a decent option. If you know your plans way in advance you can snag $65 each way. But also, while convenient on this end, know that it is pricey & far when you have to cab it to Manhattan, especially if you've flown into JFK or Newark instead of LGA. I UBERed to the Gainesville Commuter Lot in Manassas from Ashburn. It was pricey! But easy. I was curious about driving and parking but I did not find clear info on the commuter lot website, although I did find reviewers saying they do it and never had issues and apparently they don't pay anything either? (Me personally, I need to go on something more official b4 I'll leave my car for 4 days in some random lot!). The lot is small, easy to navigate and easy to clearly see where the bus will be. The bus also stops in Vienna/Fairfax at the GMU metro stop. For me, the 2 locations were actually about the same distance away in diff directions. Ultimately, I chose Manassas bc I figured it might be an easier drive during rush hour trying to catch an early weekday morning bus. I was right. Traffic wasn't too bad as compared to the DC traffic going east at that time of morning. You are dropped off in midtown Manhattan on West 30th btwn 9th & 10th aves. If you plan to take the subway, you'll need to walk a little bit to the right station (depending on what subway you need; diff subways run on diff avenues). But if you have luggage and/or you don't know the city well, just make it easy for yourself and hail a cab or call an UBER.

Horrible. Never again. I'd rather walk. Old bus and the driver's sudden and constant braking made…read morethe 5 plus hour trip awful. I felt like i might have whiplash when it was over. Braking hard when no one in front of us too. The worst bus ride of my life.

Both times have been positive experiences, and I plan to use them again for my wedding! Booking: They respond to emails quickly, and I've never had issues with communication. I can be a little uptight when double checking details (especially for group events!) but the manager Jeeth has always been really nice about it. The first time I used Ramjay for the limo, I shopped around for prices - they were asking a significantly less than other companies! The second time I just went with them because of my prior experience, and the price seemed fair. Drivers: Drivers have been professional and on time. One driver had an accent and I struggled at times to understand him, but he was really friendly and didn't seem to mind me asking him to repeat himself! He got us where we wanted to go, so in the end, I think it's a pretty minor thing. Vehicles: The limo was perfect for our NYE adventure, while the Sprinter was a classy and convenient way to get to Leesburg from Arlington. Both were well-kept from the outside and clean on the inside. Also, they were both black which is a preference of mine. Overall, great service at a really reasonable price. Highly recommended!

We were set up with a coach bus which was clean and comfortable, and the driver was at our service as soon as he arrived. He drove us to brunch, picked us up, and drove us a around all of the landmark spots (and even pointed out some historical facts along the way). Everyone was so impressed at how we were treated; we will surely be using Ramjay for all of our transportation needs in the future. Thank you!!!!

I had a great experience recently with Ballston Limo so let me tell you about it…read more.. I wanted to switch things up for my bday and at my old age, sometimes you can get a little stuck trying to figure out how to keep things fresh. I was entertaining an outing with friends that required a bit of a drive and thought it might be fun to rent an classic limo - like one we had back in the day for prom. Very often when I go with friends to wineries or day trips, everyone gets the sprinter vans now and it's just a slightly different experience. So I did request a quote for businesses nearby that might be able to accomodate my group, only a week in advance. While I number of businesses reached back out to me with quotes, I quickly learned that fewer companies have these classic stretch limos in their fleet. Ballston not only got back to me quickly, but was also available to hop on a call first thing that morning. Because there was some transparency on rates after seeing a number of quotes, I felt confident that their quote was fair and felt good moving forward with locking it in after reviewing logistics. The day of my birthday, the driver arrived on time and was great throughout the 6 hours he was booked. (Three of those hours we were inside eating brunch but he also worked with us to extend our time when we asked if we could drop by one more place before heading back from Baltimore!) Overall it was such a fun and memorable birthday. Thanks so much to Ballston Limo for helping to make it so special!

Awesome experience! Mr. Zahid was so professional, prompt and responsive. The ride was AAAAA+++ !…read more So glad we found you! Will be using you again in the future for sure.

I recently booked with Culdesac Chauffeur and was so pleased with my experience…read more I had not seen my sister since pre-pandemic. Once everyone in my family was fully vaccinated, we began to plan the long awaited reunion. Since I wasn't entirely sure of her schedule, I wasn't able to book until the day before we needed the driver so I was very happy that Culdesac was able to accommodate. From my initial phone inquiry until our drop off, every interaction with the business was professional. During my first phone call, I was able to book a driver for 5 hours to take us to a winery in Virginia. The winery is located over an hour away, so it was nice to be able to relax and not worry about driving. Everything was pretty seamless. Our driver (Rachid) was so professional and even arrived a few minutes early. He was a safe driver, kind and accommodating despite the non-stop storytelling and giggling between me, my sister and a childhood friend throughout the entire ride. Their pricing was upfront and pretty in line with quotes that I received from other businesses as well (and pricing was pretty transparent which I appreciate!) Thank you Culdesac for helping us make a very special weekend, safe and stress free.

A group of us was visiting Washington, DC for a hockey road trip…read more Two months prior to my trip, I emailed Culdesac, along with 2 other competitors for a price quote. Culdesac not only contacted me the same day, but they were the only ones who provided me with any form of communication, and I've yet to hear back from the other 2 companies. That alone catapulted Culdesac to 5 star status in my book! I had 11 people in my group and was suggested a 14 passenger Mercedes Sprint Van, picking up from IAD to downtown Washington for $275, which included tax and gratuity. I believe I spoke to Sammy, who was very helpful and friendly. Fast forward to February... The day before our trip, Sammy called me to reconfirm, and sent me our driver's name and number. A hiccup happened to our trip, and I sent Derek a text to come to the airport earlier than we agreed upon. Culdesac called to verify we needed an earlier pickup, Derek kept me in the loop of his transit time, and he came to the spot we told him we were at. Super professional! We decided to use Culdesac to take us back to the airport. Again the day before, I got a call and email reconfirming my pickup at 1:30 pm. We were told that Derek was going to take us back, but unfortunately a hiccup occured where his appointment was going to run over, so Derek texted me that someone else will pick us up, and not to worry. A few minutes after the text, Culdesac called me to say Derek was being replaced by Sam, and they texted me his number. Sam arrived at 1:15 in a 20 passenger van, just as nice as the Mercedes Sprinter, and even newer! It was also handicapped accessible, which was a good thing to remember if someone was disabled. He was just as courteous and got us to the airport safely and quickly. I honestly believe this company deserves 5 stars. They were professional, easy to get a hold of via email and phone, and communicated with me from start to finish. They charged my card after the service was completed, and the tip and tax was included in the fee. I would gladly use them again if I am back in the DC area.
