The premier provider of luxury transportation services in the San Francisco Bay Area for the last 36 years. With that comes layers of knowledge and experience where we have finely tuned our services over time to better serve you our clientele. With Black Tie, the client always comes first; we highly value your time and business. All our chauffeurs are impeccably dressed and always on time to deliver the first-class experience Black Tie is known for. Our around-the-clock booking and customer service is always on standby, ready to book, dispatch a car to you, or even help plan your trip. Before being dispatched to you, each vehicle in our highly diverse fleet is meticulously cleaned by our team of washers and detailers for that new car feeling. Safety and logistics are of top priority here at Black Tie. We have the best safety record in Northern California and carry a 10 million dollar liability policy, which is six times the California requirement. Every vehicle in our fleet goes through a 40-point inspection daily to ensure safe travels. Our team of professional Chauffeurs undergo rigorous screening and training, including background checks, and are CPR and first aid certified. With each transport, everything is by design as we plan every route, pick-up point, and drop-off point, all while carefully monitoring your event or flight to never leave you waiting.

The luxury ground transportation services industry has taken a major hit during the pandemic. Most if not all providers have been reduced to their home garage.
Black Tie Transportation is still here 24 hours a day. My Chauffeurs are old-school trained and take their jobs so seriously that they achieve a legendary level of service.
It can be very easy to deceive people here on YELP with pictures of fancy cars and buses that may or may not belong to the companies represented. Black Tie Transportation's Yelp reviews here are real, every last one of them. Fortunately, as you will read, even the bad ones are actually good :)
Most important is that what you'll see are our clients' genuine words and opinions. We don't solicit reviews and don't ask employees, friends and family members to pose as clients writing reviews. What you see here is exactly what you should - real thoughts from real people. They represent our commitment to deliver on all our promises, not sometimes, but every time.
Black Tie Transportation made an unforgettable birthday with wine tastings in Napa. Jeanette was wonderful and a delight to work with. She really listened to our group and the type of experience we wanted to have in Napa. She then coordinated all of our tasting appointments on our schedule. She knew all the best wineries to go and made it so easy for us.
The limo sprinter was fabulous and our driver Robert was fun and professional. He provided top notch service refreshing the limo between tastings and being timely at all our pick up locations. He really added to our experience.
This is the second time I've used Black Tie Transportation and I would recommend them to anyone looking to plan their next event or winery adventure.
Fabulous from start to finish. We reserved the large BMW for my husband and I to go to the city for dinner. What a beautiful car! My husband is 6'5" and he had ample leg room in the back. It was a very beautiful car and so comfortable. Steve was our driver and he is very professional. We will definitely use Black Tie again!
Jeannette and the Black Tie Transportation team provided excellent service for our wedding. We had our wedding in San Francisco on 06/10/23 and were unaware of the Juneteenth parade taking place that day. We booked a 23-passenger limo bus and due to the unexpected parade, our driver was 30 minutes late to the first shuttle time. Luckily, Jeanette with her expertise accounted for potential delays, and the parade did not interrupt our wedding festivities. Our driver was awesome and made our wedding the best experience possible despite the parade inconvenience. If you are looking for the best package deal for transportation for an event, I highly suggest Black Tie Transportation.
