    My husband and I traveled to France recently, and after a couple of poor experiences with another…read morelocal ride service in years past, I contacted Nancy at The Chauffeur Ladies as I'd heard good things. We will definitely be using this service again! What makes it so remarkable? Nancy is extremely prompt and professional. She contacted me immediately when I messaged her for information about her service. Everything was discussed and set up ahead of time. Our pick-up time was confirmed, and Nancy was right on time when the day came. We had a night flight to Roissy so we had to be at JFK at 830, three hours before the 1130 departure time. Nancy got us to the correct gate on time, and that is a major plus when coming down from the Hudson Valley! Upon our return, Nancy texted me to make certain she had our correct flight arrival details. She updated me with her ETA, her vehicle description and even the license plate number and was, again, extremely prompt. I told her the gate and pick up area, and there she was at the appointed time! Anyone who's traversed the highways from the Hudson Valley down to Long Island and back knows the traffic can be unpredictable and, most of the time, quite awful. Nancy is a very safe and conscientious driver. In fact, she used to be a driving instructor, so we always felt we were in capable hands. Lastly, Nancy is friendly and kind and remains calm as she navigates the uncertainties of the traffic and road conditions. International flights and travel nowadays can be fraught with more tension and stress than years past but this is one company that provides a seamless, worry-free service. I would give ten stars, if I could.

    TLDR: This is not a professional service. Look elsewhere…read more We had such a bad experience, I don't even know where to begin this story. First, the website to book doesn't work on iPhones, and you should use your computer. We've had two crazy experiences with this company but this last one was a major doozy. Their process is, once the proposed reservation is booked, they accept it and send you confirmations, and even after that, almost everyday you'll get an email confirming your booking. You'd think this was reassuring? We have two people on an account so we both were getting emails and texts confirming the booking. Reassuring. You'd think. The day of our reservation arrives and it's to get to JFK. The time for the car to arrive comes and goes. Reminder: This after actual text conversations back and forth reconfirming the booking as well as all those emails. So we text in that morning and the person says, oh you cancelled 3 weeks ago. I mean, how?! How did we cancel 3 weeks ago when you have been sending daily confirmation reminders as well as having text reconfirmations to confirm the date and time and the booking was made well after June 6th. Again, we have had at least 10 emails and texts confirming conversations since that debacle of our first request for a car back on June 6. Texts and calls back and forth that they are wrong finally got us a driver to the house 2 hours late! Initial flight missed at this point. We had to change flight reservations and make alternate plans for arrival. It was stressful. Beyond stressful. We are still holding out in good faith for them tho. We need to get to get to JFK and really giving them so much benefit of the doubt at this point. 40 mins to arrival promised. An hour later... the driver calls, who is supposed to be a professional driver, and she is somewhere parked who knows where trying to find the house. She's had the address and has CarPlay (as she rolls up finally I see she has her phone, so assumed she's using CarPlay or Google Maps) but parked and waiting at a totally different address. Again, another sign. But we need to get to the airport and are feeling like, beggars can't be choosers, just get us there! However, we really were just questioning this whole experience at this point and how this company is still in business. The driver finally pulls up, and it's obvious she isn't a driver, she's got a sun hat on and not dressed like "car drivers" are typically dressed and put together. I open the trunk and there is a wheelchair back there... I don't even know what to say to this. Except that she is now unable to help with luggage, clearly. And even more so, it has been validated that this is not a professional car service driver and seems to be a friend who has been asked to do a favor for the company. As she's on her phone, I'm assuming, googling a route to JFK, I say to my wife, make sure she doesn't drive off with your luggage when you arrive. The drive to the airport was pretty traumatic too. The driver was not experienced and clearly nervous the whole way, jerking the wheel and braking every time someone passed her. At JFK she didn't know where to pull over and allow for a safe exit and she really did almost drive off with my wife's luggage had my wife not banged on the car for her to stop! She was taking off before my wife even had a chance to get to the trunk. It was insanity. Later that evening, 6:52pm, I kid you not, we both get texts saying, your driver is on the way, with a notice saying, their late policy goes into effect after 15 minutes of waiting. Is this a joke? Then an hour later we get a text saying the trip has ended and they hope we had a pleasant and comfortable ride. Oh, we had a ride...that was insane and we can't recommend this company based on our experience. They need an administrative overhaul. Communication in excess doesn't mean good communication. A website that works on phones. Our driver was NOT a professional driver. They rolled up in their own car and were not dressed professionally, as well as their car not being set up for taking a customer to a busy airport. Not to mention, the driver was unable to provide a basic driver service of placing luggage in the trunk.

    There is something to be said about a family owned and operated business that you just cannot get…read morefrom a corporate run business: flexibility, polite manners and reliability. It's their business, their reputation on the line. I was looking for a car service last minute, the night before my flight yesterday, to take me from La Guardia to a friend's home 1 1/2 hrs away in Montgomery. I called CAR24. Mike was super prompt in returning my text at 11:00pm, assured me he had availability and we'd touch base in the morning. True to his word, we booked the car in the morning and he gave me a very competitive rate. Didn't tack on last minute fees. Done, texted confirmation number. Gave me name of my driver, Allison, who touched base 5 min later with her cell number. Super prompt, funny and friendly, riding with Allison was a pleasure. A key thing to note: take your cues from the client. She didn't start chatting until I did. I'm from New Orleans and work in the hospitality industry there, handling conventions with 10,000-30,000 in attendance. I book about 250 private car service for clients a year. There are a few key things that are expected from a private car service that are unbendable: reliability, communication, cleanliness and polite manners in drivers, who understand it's not about them it's about the client. Likewise from a client: tip the driver and tip in cash. If you get good service, show it by tipping more than 20% of the fare. In our industry, there is nothing worse than a rude passenger and a bad tipper. Home run for CAR24. Allison even stopped at CVS so I could run in and grab something. Thank you!!! MaryBeth
