Larkspur Car Service & Larkspur Landing Transfers

Yes, and it is one of the most common bookings we take in Larkspur. Give us the sailing you are on and your chauffeur is in position before it is due to berth, with your name and the vehicle details sent to you in advance. If the crossing runs behind, the vehicle waits — nothing is cancelled and no clock starts at the scheduled time. For a party of more than four or five we will agree a specific loading point away from the terminal kerb, because it is busy at sailing times and gathering a group there is not realistic.

You sail from San Francisco to Larkspur Landing in the morning, which removes the Golden Gate from the day entirely, and we collect you at the terminal and drive north from there. Everything from Petaluma up through Sonoma, or east into the Napa Valley, is a clean run once the bridge is behind you. At the end of the day we either bring you back to the ferry for a specific sailing or drive you the whole way home. We will tell you honestly which of those two fits the itinerary you have described.

Yes. The Larkspur station sits alongside the ferry terminal, and meeting an arriving train is straightforward — chauffeur on the platform side, luggage taken, no working out which car park to walk to. We also use it as a consolidation point: if half your party is coming north by rail and half is arriving some other way, everyone gets collected at Larkspur Landing and loaded into one vehicle before the drive starts, which is far less time lost than meeting at the far end.

Somewhere we have agreed with you at booking rather than somewhere we guessed. For a Mid-Size or Large Luxury SUV the terminal frontage is usually workable. For the Luxury Sprinter Van, the Sprinter Passenger Van or the Luxury Bus we will normally use the Marin Country Mart side instead, where there is space to stand, space to load, and somewhere sheltered to wait if a connection is running behind. Your chauffeur walks to you rather than expecting you to find a vehicle among a queue.

About 32–48 minutes off-peak, south on US-101 from the Sir Francis Drake Boulevard interchange. That is one of the shorter airport runs in Marin. Weekday mornings southbound are slower than the range suggests, so we set early pickups against commute conditions instead of an average — the transfer is flat-rate either way, so heavy traffic changes the drive but not the number you were quoted.

SFO for almost everything, at 32–48 minutes, simply because it has the widest choice of flights and it is the closest. Oakland (OAK) is 38–55 and occasionally the better fare. Charles M. Schulz–Sonoma County (STS) is 50–65 north on US-101 and is the one people overlook: if you are heading for Sonoma County anyway, it puts you inside wine country rather than at the far end of a freeway run. Check the route map first, though, because it is a regional airport with a short one.

Yes, and starting from Larkspur is an advantage most groups underestimate. You are already north of the Golden Gate, so the least predictable part of a wine-country morning never happens. Send us your confirmed appointments and we will sequence them into a day that holds together, and tell you plainly if the list you have in mind does not fit the hours. Tasting days are hourly with a daily minimum; tasting fees are paid directly to each winery.

It depends entirely on the hour and on where in the city you are going. The boat runs to a published timetable and is immune to bridge traffic, which makes it very predictable but only as flexible as the schedule. A chauffeured vehicle leaves when you want to leave and puts you at a specific address rather than at the Ferry Building. Plenty of our Larkspur guests use both — the boat one way, a flat-rate drive the other, usually the evening leg.

The vehicle waits. We track the connection you have given us and the chauffeur stays in position; nothing is released and no wait clock starts at the originally scheduled time. This is the practical advantage of a booked chauffeur over hailing something on arrival — at the end of a delayed crossing on a wet evening, Larkspur Landing is not a place where a ride appears on demand. Dispatch is staffed around the clock on (415) 237-0073 if anything changes at your end.

Mid-Size Luxury SUV for up to four passengers, Large Luxury SUV for up to six with full-size luggage, Luxury Sprinter Van with captain's chairs and a stand-up cabin for up to eleven, Sprinter Passenger Van for up to fourteen, and Luxury Bus for up to twenty-four. Larger parties run as multiple vehicles on one coordinated schedule so the whole group arrives together rather than trickling in.

Airport transfers and point-to-point trips are flat-rate and quoted upfront, with tolls, fuel and standard wait time already inside the number — no meter, and no surge multiplier at six in the morning or on a Saturday. Full days, whether that is a tasting itinerary or an as-directed day of meetings, are hourly with a daily minimum. Send us the date, the party size and the rough shape of the day and we will come back with a specific quote rather than a range.

Yes. Irydn holds California Public Utilities Commission charter-party carrier permit TCP 0039081A, carries commercial liability insurance, and employs background-checked professional chauffeurs. It is worth asking any operator for their TCP number before you book — it is the line between a licensed carrier and someone running an unpermitted vehicle, and it is the first thing a venue will check if it checks anything at all.
