Getting around Palos Verdes

Palos Verdes is a long way from most airport curbs by South Bay standards, and many residents would rather not drive the winding Peninsula roads home after a late flight. Typical bookings include LAX and Long Beach airport runs, dinners in the beach cities or downtown, weddings and events at Terranea and Trump National, and cruise departures from San Pedro just below the hill.

Good to know in Palos Verdes

1

Rolling Hills is a gated city, so share your gate instructions or have the guard told about the pickup before the car arrives.

2

Palos Verdes Drive South through Portuguese Bend has been affected by ongoing land movement, so we check road conditions before trips between Terranea and San Pedro.

3

Long Beach Airport is worth comparing with LAX for domestic flights from the Peninsula, since its smaller terminal is quicker to get through.

How long is the drive from Palos Verdes to LAX?

Palos Verdes to LAX is approximately 18 miles, typically 28-35 minutes via Hawthorne Blvd or the 110 to the 405. The winding roads within PV can add time, so our drivers know the fastest exit routes from every neighborhood.

Do you serve Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes?

Yes. We pick up and drop off at Terranea for resort guests, weddings, and corporate events, including airport transfers to LAX. For groups, a Sprinter van seats up to 12.

Can I hire a private chauffeur for the day in Palos Verdes?

Absolutely. Our hourly chauffeur service is popular with PV residents who need multi-stop service — doctor appointments, shopping, lunch in Manhattan Beach, and back home.

Can you run shuttles for wedding guests at Trump National or another Peninsula venue?

For the couple, a First Class Cadillac Escalade or Mercedes S-Class (or similar) is a common choice. Send us the timeline and we will plan the runs around the ceremony and the send-off.

Can a chauffeur take visiting family on a scenic drive around the Peninsula?

Yes, book it hourly with a 2-hour minimum. A typical loop follows Palos Verdes Drive past Malaga Cove, Lunada Bay and Point Vicente, with stops for the views and lunch at Terranea. Because of land movement in Portuguese Bend, the driver may adjust the route on the south side of the Peninsula.
