We accommodate over 3,000 charter requests a year and services do get completely booked. We recommend sending in a request at least four weeks in advance or earlier to secure vehicles, especially for non-local trips.
No. Since reservations are made based on availability, it is best to make a request as early as possible.
Generally any trip over 90 miles each way is considered a mileage quote (i.e., Monterey, Sacramento, etc.) The quote is based on mileage and not hours. Mileage quotes are not listed on the price table. To inquire about rates, please submit a charter request for a quote.
Special event shuttles, parking shuttles, conference shuttles, airport transfers, local trips, day trips and overnight and weekend trips (i.e., San Francisco, Yosemite, Tahoe, Los Angeles) and more. We provide vehicles of varying sizes for small and large groups.
If you are looking for general airport transportation options, please see the Community Shuttles section of our site.
Charter vehicles arranged through Stanford Transportation are for Stanford events only. Personal events such as weddings, proms, birthdays, family reunions, and/or anything unrelated to Stanford University are not eligible for our services.
No, all services include a driver.
Prices vary depending on factors such as the size of the group, the vehicle type, distance traveled and the length of the charter. All hourly-based rates include gratuity, fuel surcharge, and fees.
