I am updating my review from 2024 because I have used Marvin Towncar a few times since then, and the service continues to be excellent. In particular, if you are an anxious traveler, you will give yourself some peace of mind by hiring Marvin Towncar Services to pick you up or drop you off at the airport. They are completely reliable and always early. When I am going through my long pre-trip mental checklist, it helps me to know that I can rely on them to get to and from the airport. I continue to recommend them unreservedly. read more

We have used Marvin Transport over a dozen times and this review is long overdue. They are the best and and are always on time, efficient, courteous, warm and friendly. The cars always clean they are always at our house early to pick us up. they've gone over and above at a time when I totally forgot I booked the wrong day and they found a way to pick us up anyway. Marvin is an absolutely wonderful service and I would recommend them highly to about anyone. Book a ride or excursion. You can't go wrong! read more

Another excellent SFO drop off. Was great to see Bo again - what a treat. On time , great car , lovley ride. Thank you.

BO WAS GREAT! I had a medical procedure to go to in redwood city. Bo was of course on time, came up with me to confirm with nurse he would be my driver home, was extremely lovely human being who took the turns and bumps slowly as best he could after my procedure and on way home. Helped me out of the car as I was loopy, took my bags in and helped me up my stairs. Like family and I gave him a big hug for all the TLC. They are my go to for personal drivers. read more

Marvin is awesome!! Easy to book on their website and always reliable. I've used Marvin more than 10x now and always had a skilled, safe and friendly driver who jumped out to help with bags and luggage. Their vehicles are clean and comfortable. At the home, they arrive early. At the airport, they track your flight and pull up to the curb within minutes. read more

It's easy to "update" my previous reviews since Marvin TownCar continues to more than earn its five-star rating. I use them for myself and for my family more than once a year to and from SFO and OAK. Never fail to show up on time; drivers friendly, professional, helpful and safe. Smooth riding. read more

Like everyone else says, this place is extremely reliant, professional, and timely. I needed an early morning airport ride from the depths of the Berkeley Hills and didn't want to risk not being able to get a ride share car. Booking a car was super easy, the driver showed up on time, and got us to the airport safely. I will definitely be using them again when I'm in town. read more

I have used Marvin Towncar services a few times now for my daughter's airport commute. They have been professional, punctual, helpful and overall a huge blessing. I highly recommend their services. read more

We have had the pleasure of riding with Marvin TownCar Service several times - both on airport trips as well as for a night out. We could not be happier with their service. Their drivers are beyond professional and booking and communication are top notch! They are the best around!! read more

Wonderful car service. Punctual, courteous, professional. Very comfortable, relaxing rides to and from the airports.

We had a plane leaving OAK at 6:30AM. We live on our boat at Emery Cove Marina, Emeryville. Set up for Marvin Towncar Services to pick us up at 5AM at the Marina. (Which I feel is a bit unusual). The driver was there a few minutes early. Communicated with us by text. Got us at the Gate. Wearing a suit. Driving a late model Suburban. Super friendly and professional. Got us to the Airport before 5:30AM. Perfect! So worth it. Return trip the driver fished us out of the crowd, via text. Nice Lincoln Towncar. Driver was friendly, professional, great attitude. We were tired and wonky from the trip. Didn't have to think about anything, except hooking up with the car and there was already a text from the driver when I switched my phone from Airplane mode. Really a great service. read more

On time and so reliable and kind. Cannot recommend enough. Cars are spotless and always have water. Pick up at SFO is always chaotic and messy but the drivers navigate it well. read more

I've tried the super shuttles, I've tried Lyfts, Ubers and Yellow Cabs, and on the rare occasions, I've even asked friends to give me a ride to the airport (LOL). When we are talking early morning flights, any of those above mentioned scenarios can quickly become stressful if a friend or driver is running late or just cancels altogether. (Humph, LYFT!). Now that I've tried Marvin Car Service, there's no looking back. I'm talking top notch, friendly, professional, timely, reliable service ... and you'll be supporting an Oakland owned and Black owned business. (YAY!) I highly recommend Marvin Town Car! read more

Marvin Towncar Service is #1! I have used this service for transportation to and from OAK and SFO airports over many, many years. On my last trip, our flight was super late with arrival time of 1:30am. My friend that was traveling with me needed help getting home due to the late delay. All I had to do was notify Marvin Towncar Services and they made arrangements to accommodate her. When picking us up we were greeted with a smile and reassurance that all was well. We were finally on our way home. My friend was dropped off at her Belmont home, and then we were enroute to my home in Oakland. Upon arrival at my home, the driver assisted me with my bags and waited until I was inside safe and sound. I can't thank the guys at Marvin Towncar enough - over the years they have been reliable, friendly, and professional. Most of ALL - they are there when you need them and they make your trip worry free! All the best to Bo and the team at Marvin Towncar Services. read more

Smooth reservation process online. On-time, smooth pick up even though we had some very specific requests. Relaxing trip and a great driver. Couldn't have asked for a better experience! read more

Great service, driver was amazing, friendly and an excellent driver. Cars were in excellent condition.

We were recommended to try this service many years ago and we have never been disappointed. Recently we booked a ride from the San Francisco Airport to Oakland. As always there was a personable driver and clean new SUV, on time. This professional service strives to give the client peace of mind and a smooth ride to their destination. read more

Used Marvin TownCar Services for the first time and I will definitely use them again. From beginning to end the service was outstanding. The website is easy to use. After booking I had some questions and they were very responsive. I booked a pickup from SFO while I was still in the air our driver Olyad texted me to let me know to contact him when we were ready for pickup. Once we had our bags he was there less than 5 minutes later to pick us up. He got us settled into the car, loaded our bags and had cold water waiting for us. Great conversation on our trip back to the East Bay. read more

Marvin TownCar Services definitely earns the 5 Star reviews. I haven't had to use a shuttle to the airport in so long I wasn't sure what to expect. I used to use Bayporter and SuperShuttle back in the day. Lyft and Uber stress me out with a nagging feeling of what am I going to get with my request.....With Marvin TownCar the online reservations were incredibly easy, I had zero issues finding availability for my red eye time slot, my driver was warm/friendly/professional and nice to my kids. The SUV's we had were immaculate. All in I have used their service for airport transport with my family and now for work. Bonus- this is an Oakland based company run by what seems to be a very nice family. It feels good to support a well run operation that puts in a lot of effort. read more

Love Marvin Towncar. Clean cars, on time, easy booking and the drivers are nice. Highly recommend. read more

We could not possibly recommend Marvin TownCar more highly! We have used them for several years, usually to SFO from Mandana Blvd in Oakland. The drivers are professional yet friendly and good safe drivers. They always arrive about 10 minutes before the set time. Just as our airplane lands at SFO, the driver texts and lets us know the license plate number and the kind of vehicle. We then let him know when our luggage has arrived, and he picks us up at the designated location. Never fails. You can use Marvin with complete conference! read more

We had ANOTHER fantastic experience with Marvin Car. We ordered one years ago for just one trip and had never done before. Now, we can't go to the airport without them. Michael is amazing and the service is perfect, on time, great communication, beautiful car inside and out, no walking and they even check our delayed flights. (ugh) so we don't have to do a thing. We are both teachers so we have a budget , but this falls under our stress and health allotment as it has saves us undue nervous energy and family stress with loading car, getting there on time, will we get picked up or not picked up, and the exhaustion at the end of trip is over as soon as we get picked up at the airport. It has helped us travel immensely and enjoy any trip as we eliminate the pre and post ordeal! Thank you all at there and we'll be back! read more

I have been using them for almost 3 years now! Reliable, always on time, patient, friendly service and have taken care of me when I had past travel emergencies. read more

Have used this service twice, once last year for an early flight and this past month for a very early outbound and very late return flight. Excellent service, on time, clean vehicle, not smelly. Very polite service and on the return to my house, the driver even carried my luggage to my front door. All three times, safe driving. Quite expensive, but worth it. read more

Super delayed in writing this review. I can't speak highly enough about Marvin Towncar Services. We hired them to drive us (myself and my octogenarian mother) to and from Oakland Airport for our Christmas trip. Our driver was early, attentive, friendly, and an excellent driver. We were met on our return in the same manner. Will use them again and have recommended to friends! read more

Been using Marvin TownCar for many years (since it was just Marvin!) and it is really the only car service to use. The drivers are so lovely, always early, always helpful. Booking is super easy via the app. I wish they'd expand to the east coast! read more

I have been using Marvin for years. They are always reliable, always professional. Their cars are clean and comfortable. They have guest amenities like phone chargers and bottles of water on board. Using them really takes the stress off getting to the airport read more

I've used Marvin TownCar a few times over the years when I have to get to the airport in the early morning and parking would be more expensive. The drivers have been reliable -- always a few minutes early -- as well as friendly and courteous. Extremely professional. It helps remove a bit of stress from travel. The website reservation system is easy to use, and the phone customer service has always been good as well. Highly recommend. read more

Excellent reliable courteous timely service what more could you ask for?. Top notch highly recommended

I highly recommend Marvin Town Car Services! His Cars are immaculate, his drivers are accommodating, and always helpful. His fleet is always reliable even for last minute bookings or scheduling mishaps. Our family has used Marvin's services for 13 years and I have yet to be disappointed. Thank you so much Marvin for providing excellent services! read more

Outstanding chauffeur services. Always on time. Nice drivers; very clean and comfortable limos. read more

Excellent service from online ordering, confirmation, on time pickup- everything. Highly recommend

Been using Marvin as my go to car service for more years than I can remember. 10 Plus I believe. They are my go to car service and I use them once a week minimum. I highly recommend them if you need a car service. read more

I can't recommend Marvin Town Car more highly. I've used them to transport my family to the airport at least 10 times and will continue to do so. Their drivers are on time, polite and know the roads. A great company and a great service. read more

Great car service to take kids to the airports. Our driver, Otihad (apologies for what I'm sure is not the correct spelling!) was early, super friendly and kind to my kinds, and got us to the airport safely and on time. read more

Marvin Town Car Services. Wow, where do I start? Bo is an awesome professional driver with an easy enjoyable personality. Patience was needed picking up my husband from chemo and Marvin Town Services fit our needs. #CancerSux Marvin Town Car Services provides comfortable luxury transportation. I cannot express how appreciative I am of their services. A shout out to Tee in dispatch, great customer service! read more

Marvin TownCar Services - Marvin Town Services, soft ride after hard Chemo - Limos Near Me - Oakland, California

Marvin is a consummate professional. His gentle manner ensures a smooth ride and he's always on time. Recently we gave Marvin the wrong date for a pick-up, causing him to needlessly go to the airport. When we offered to pay for our mistake, he refused and told us that he was just happy it had all been sorted out. Talk about taking the "customer is always right" ethos to heart (even though we were clearly wrong)! Marvin uses Square on his iPhone, so you can easily pay him via credit card. For future airport trips, he'll definitely be my go to. read more

Used for a super early 5am ride to the airport. We've had lots of trouble securing an Uber or Lyft at that hour before and often end up driving and paying for parking at the airport. Marvin Town Car was on time, extremely polite, clean, and was overall a great experience. They always answered the phone whenever I called, and sent a confirmatory email the day before our pickup. Well worth the money and will use again. read more

Excellent service. Easy to book online. Car arrived early and followed directions exactly. Driver was polite and quiet as I put my head back and dozed in the car. Vehicle was exceptional. I will use them again. read more

They failed to pick me up early in the morning. No one answered their phone at that hour. I waited half an hour and then had to rush to catch my flight with an Uber. At 7 that evening, I received a text pretending they were waiting outside my door. What were they trying to pretend to be doing. I will never use this service again and I recommend that you don't if you actually want to get to your destination in time. read more
