Private Kentucky Derby Transportation

Pricing depends on vehicle type, group size, service hours, and pickup location. All quotes include the vehicle, professional chauffeur, fuel, and parking. Smaller groups in Sprinters for single-day service start at a lower price point; larger motor coaches for multi-day packages cost more. Weekend packages offer better per-day value than booking days separately. Request a free quote for accurate pricing.

Round-trip transportation for both Kentucky Oaks (Friday) and Derby Day (Saturday), an all-day chauffeur who stays with your group, flexible pickup and drop-off, multiple stops (hotel, party venues, Churchill Downs), and direct drop-off near the gates. You get the same dedicated chauffeur both days plus coordination calls before each event day.

Yes — we pick up from any hotel, Airbnb, or residence in our service area: Lexington, Louisville, Versailles, Georgetown, Nicholasville, and Richmond, Kentucky. Provide your exact pickup address when requesting a quote and we'll coordinate precise timing. For large properties, we'll identify the best meeting point for easy access.

Yes. We offer airport transfers from Louisville International (SDF) or Blue Grass Airport (LEX) to your hotel or Derby event. Transfers can be added to a Weekend Package or booked separately. Many out-of-town groups bundle arrival pickup, Derby Day transportation, and return drop-off into one seamless package.

As early as possible. Derby Week vehicles typically fill 3–6 months out, especially premium dates — we recommend booking by January or February for May travel. Corporate groups and large parties should book even earlier, since motor coaches and limo sprinters become scarce as Derby approaches.

We recommend pickup 2–3 hours before post time to account for traffic and parking navigation. For the Derby (typically a 6:57pm post time), most groups schedule a 3–4pm pickup. Your chauffeur fine-tunes the timing based on your hotel location and traffic. Earlier races like the Oaks need earlier departures.

Yes. Your chauffeur stays available throughout your Derby Day or Weekend Package. Unlike ride-share, your dedicated driver coordinates pickups, handles itinerary changes, and stays in contact so your group never waits or worries about getting back.

Yes. Every vehicle is Kentucky DOT-registered, fully insured for commercial passenger transport, and maintained to high safety standards. Our chauffeurs are licensed, background-checked, and experienced in Derby Week logistics, and we carry liability coverage that exceeds state minimums.

All-day chauffeur service includes flexibility. Want to leave earlier or later, or add a stop at another party, restaurant, or hotel? Just contact your chauffeur and they'll accommodate it within the service day — a real advantage over rigid ride-share scheduling and standard car services that charge premiums for changes.

Yes — every vehicle has storage for coolers, bags, Derby hats, and personal items. Sprinters offer dedicated rear storage; coaches provide undercarriage luggage bays. Let us know about oversized or special-storage items at booking and we'll make sure your vehicle accommodates everything.
