Meet your driver
Hi, I’m Jon.
As the owner and operator, I'm able to provide a level of service and flexibility that others simply cannot provide, both personally and logistically.
With more than 20 years and thousands of trips behind me, you can rest easy knowing you're in good hands.
I could (practically) drive 17 blindfolded and while making it so effortless you'll wonder what all the fuss is about.
While I may brag about driving smoothly, the real joy comes from getting to know my clients and helping newcomers fully experience Santa Cruz and the Monterey Bay Area. Whether you like to chat or take a nap after your long flight, I've got you covered.
Service area
Monterey to San Francisco.
And beyond.
Based in Santa Cruz, licensed to operate throughout California. Specializing in PCH, Tahoe, Big Sur & LA transport.

How many passengers can the vehicle carry?
The premium SUV seats up to six passengers and includes captain's chairs, personal tablets, Wi-Fi and a panoramic roof.
Do you travel outside Santa Cruz?
Yes. I focus on Monterey through San Francisco and can legally operate throughout California, including Tahoe and Los Angeles trips.
What happens if my flight is delayed or arrives early?
I track your flight number and adjust the pickup time as your flight changes. There is no extra charge for a delayed flight. If a major delay conflicts with another client's incoming flight, I will arrange for a licensed driver I trust to be available.
Do you provide infant, child or booster seats?
Yes. I can provide a child seat when needed. At your request, I can also purchase a specific infant or child seat of your choosing and have it installed and ready for your trip; you pay only the seat's cost at the current market price.
What is your cancellation or reservation-change policy?
A 50% deposit reserves a day trip and is fully refundable until 48 hours before pickup. Day-trip cancellations within 48 hours, but before the day of travel, have a $100 cancellation fee. Same-day cancellations have a fee equal to 25% of the total trip price. Airport cancellations remain flexible and are handled case by case, especially when flights are canceled.
