Has anyone used Happy Limo? They were recommended under the Mousesavers web site. We have 14 travelers, but only 6 are traveling in my party. We've decided to get a limo so we don't have to break up the group, and the limo will be a surprise for the kids too!

I have not heard anything bad about them, but I haven't ever used them either. Have you considered Quicksilver? They are a sponcer on this site and have excellent rates and every review I have read has been VERY positive. I am trying them out myself on my upcoming trip. 14 in one limo? Will you all fit in one? How about a van? I agree that the limo would be a great surprise for the kids, but I'm not sure if 14 will go in one limo.

Welcome to DC! I see that you are from my area. I am in South Jersey too.

Dana, thanks for the reply. I'll take a look at Quick Silver too. We have 14 going to the Hard Rock in November, but only 6 of us are traveling together; we will meet the rest at the hotel. Six definitely can fit in a limo.

Most definately 6 can fit. I misunderstood. I thought you were all traveling together..lol sorry about that. Get a quote from both...can't hurt to have a few options to pick from.

We used Happy Limo for our trip in June (I also found them from the Mousesavers site). We were extremely pleased with the service. Our flight had been delayed, so we weren't sure what would happen to our reservation with them. We called when we had our luggage and the driver was there in about 5 min. To our surprise, he showed up with a white stretch limo instead of the towncar we'd reserved. We thought we might not be able to do our scheduled grocery stop because of the flight delay, but our driver loaded all of our stuff and asked which store we preferred to stop at. Our driver was wonderful! He loaded all of our groceries in the rain and held an umbrella over us as we got in the car. He was so friendly and courteous. We were thrilled with the service we got from Happy Limo and thought it was a good value. We'll definitely use them again!

We have used Happy Limo two times. We were very pleased with their service. We too arrived late and our driver was more than courteous. The second time we used them I booked a Limo and surprised my wife and kids. They thought we were getting a towncar. My kids felt like movie stars.

Hi everyone,

I feel I have, as a sponsor, to give you all a bit of information, and a way to compare both our companies:

1) Quicksilver has a flat rate, gratuity not included.
Happy has a base rate which they will add tolls, Airport surcharge, and a 20% gratuity.

2)Quicksilver has a free 30 minutes stop
Happy only 15 minutes

3)Quicksilver does not charge for car seats and booster seat.
Happy charges $5.00 each way per car seat and booster seat.

4)Quicksilver will meet and greet you in either side of the airport.
Happy will only meet and greet you on the "B" side of the airport.

5)Quicksilver does not charge for late or early pick-ups.
Happy has late and early pick-up fees.

6)Quicksilver offers a free 5 minutes international or 10 minutes domestic phone call.

I just felt you needed to have all the information before deciding which towncar company to use. Always look for hidden fees, and all smaller details that sometimes go by unnoticed.

Regards,

Gregory Nicolas.

Does anyone happen to have any info on Orange Transportation? We have a towncar booked with them for next week, and it's only $75 round trip to WL. It's just 2 adults, so no need for booster seats, etc. And I don't think we will even be using the grocery stop they offer. I just have to wonder why the price is a bit lower than tiffany, quicksilver, happy, and a few other car services I have looked into. Any info would be appreciated.

Orange Trans is a small new company that started advertising in search engines like Google and Yahoo. They are competing now with over 20 local companies, some good, some bad. What you have to look for is if they are fully insured, have any links with the BBB or any association (like the Livery association or Greater Orlando Livery association) so you can trust them at 100%. I never heard anybody around here talking about them, sorry.
