Riding a Limousine Service in Calgary: Everything You Need to Know

Do you want to treat yourself to a luxurious limousine ride for a special event, going to and from the airport or just a night out of town? To avoid bill shock and get the best experience, read on to find out everything there is to know about limousine services in Calgary.

How much does a limo rental cost? This must be one of your first questions. The answer depends on the day and time you intend to use the limo. If you are using it for prom and you booked late just a few weeks before the big date, then expect to pay more. The price also depends on the size and luxuriousness of the vehicle you will rent as well as the pick-up and drop-off locations.

There are six types of limousines: luxury sedans, stretch sedans, stretch limousines for 6 or 8 people, and super stretch limousines or SUV for 12 or 18 people. If you want more room to move around or need space for your luggage, book a bigger vehicle.

One of the most asked questions by passengers when riding limousines is this: Are we allowed to drink alcohol? This all depends on the law. If you can legally drink alcohol, then the answer is yes. Of course, underage drinking is not allowed anywhere.

Another question asked is: Should we tip the driver? The answer is yes. Just like other workers in service industries (such as waiters in restaurants), the driver or chauffeur should be tipped. The standard is 20%.

When booking a limousine service, check what their valuable clients have to say. You can easily find reviews online. Make sure that the company is reputable and can ensure safe and reliable limo service. The best rental companies can send professional chauffeurs and can offer just about any extra you might need, from champagne to flowers. For your convenience, find a limousine company whom you can contact through different channels such as via online chat, by telephone, and website quote requests.
