Washington, DC Car Service

Private chauffeurs across the nation's capital, from the White House and the National Mall to every hotel, embassy and office in the District.

Washington chauffeur service

A local chauffeur service, built for the capital

Washington moves fast. Motorcades close streets, events reroute traffic and a 2-mile trip across downtown can take longer than a run out to the airport. Capital Executive Car Services is based right here in the District, and our chauffeurs plan every ride around how the city actually works, not how the map says it should.

We drive executives, delegations, families and visitors to meetings on K Street, dinners in Georgetown, events at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center and evenings at the Kennedy Center. Every ride is booked in advance at a fixed price, with an 18% gratuity already included, so there is nothing to work out when you arrive.

Need more than one stop? Book by the hour and keep the same chauffeur and vehicle with you for meetings, sightseeing or a full day in the city.
