Can anyone recommend a reliable car service and what the approximate price would be? I'm hesitant to use Supershuttle because of bad experiences in NY. Any suggestions? Thanks!

btw, I need this info for crack of dawn tomorrow - nothing like last minute!

I've used South Bay Shuttle a few times. Their rates are good.

There are also various limo services, but they cost twice as much as the shuttle.

Good luck!

Car services are not as big a thing out here as in NYC--but I checked with some friends in Palo Alto and they say a car service is about $65.

If South Bay Shuttle can't accommodate you, here's a list of other shuttle services, but I haven't personally used any of the others:

I checked again and they say friends have used something called 101 Limo and Taxi based in Palo Alto.

Thanks everyone!

Thank you easytraveler. My son used southandeastbay, etc. and it worked out fine. They were reliable and inexpensive ($18) and he'll use them on his return as well.

Centralparkgirl: you're most welcome!

They're the same company 'South Bay Shuttle" "East Bay Shuttle" "South and East Bay" - it used to get confusing at 4am in the morning to go outside and see a different name on the side of the shuttle, LOL!

Glad it worked out for your son! He can't go wrong using them again! They're reliable and inexpensive.
