private taxi for washington dc
Hi,
I am taking my elderly mom to Washington DC for a few days in May. Does anyone know a driver or taxi that I could hire for a day or two? I would prefer not a limo company -- would like as much as possible to go to the driver. Or if I need to use a limo company, has anyone had good experience with one for driving around the sights? Thanks, Bonnie |
You might check with the concierge at whatever hotel you are staaying at. They are going to have all sorts of resources.
This is going to be a VERY expensive proposition, especially if you want them waiting around while a sightseeing or eating. I'd expect at least $500 a day at a minimum. Taxis are very accessible all over DC |
Thanks very much for the reply Mike.
Do you think we could even get a taxi leaving the FDR memorial? That kind of location is my biggest concern. Bonnie |
I don't think you'll have any problem finding a taxi anywhere. No matter where you are, just keep an eye out for taxis dropping people off.

There are going to be taxis trolling the entire monument/mall area. FDR and the WWII memorial are very popular. It shouldn't be a problem.
|
Look up the numbers for Diamond Cab, Yellow Cab, etc. and program them into your phone. If you need a cab, just call.
|
Thanks to all of you so much! I know my mom and I will have great time. I can always count on fellow Fodorites and I really appreciate your advice.
