Ulster County Limo and Car Service

Majestic Transportation Services & Limo Inc.

We drive people from homes, rentals and venues across Ulster to the airports, to the train stations on the far side of the Hudson and to weddings and tastings around the county, booked in advance at a price agreed up front. Our Ulster County limo service plans each pickup around distance: a Woodstock cottage, a Rondout Valley barn and a New Paltz dorm all sit a long drive from the big airports, and only a few roads cover that gap. Send us the address and the flight, train or event time, and we work backward from the road that gets you out of your corner of the county fastest.

Thruway, 9W, 209 and Route 28: The Roads Out

The New York State Thruway runs north and south through the county, with exits at New Paltz, Kingston and Saugerties, and it carries most long runs toward New York City, New Jersey and the big airports. Along the river, Route 9W links Saugerties, Kingston, Highland and the Marlborough hamlets. US 209 heads southwest through the Rondout Valley toward Ellenville, and Route 28 climbs west from Kingston into the mountains.

Two bridges connect the county directly to the east bank: the Kingston-Rhinecliff Bridge and the Mid-Hudson Bridge at Highland. Both are run by the New York State Bridge Authority, which also operates the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge just to the south in Orange County. The crossing we pick depends on where you are headed on the other side.

There is no Amtrak or Metro-North station on this side of the river, so train travelers step off in Dutchess County. Amtrak stops at Rhinecliff, a short hop over the Kingston-Rhinecliff Bridge, and Metro-North’s Hudson Line ends at Poughkeepsie, across the Mid-Hudson Bridge from Highland. A chauffeur can meet either train and bring you back to the west bank.

Ulster County Car Service to Stewart or the New York Airports

From New Paltz, Kingston or Saugerties, Stewart International Airport in New Windsor is the closest field: south on the Thruway to Newburgh, then a few minutes on I-84. When your airline has the flight you need there, it saves hours on the road.

The three large airports mean a long drive. From Kingston on a weekday morning, expect roughly:

New Paltz and the southern towns are closer to all three; the mountain hamlets are farther. Thruway and city traffic shift those numbers daily, so we build margin into the pickup, and departures before dawn are routine from here. Calls that come in overnight, after the office closes at 6 p.m., go to our dispatch team, so a question about a pickup in the middle of the night still reaches a person.

On the way home, a car service in Ulster County should not leave you guessing at the curb. With our airport car service, we track the flight, you get an automated text naming your chauffeur once you land, and the free wait at the curb runs 30 minutes on a domestic arrival and a full hour when you fly in from abroad.

Weddings, Tastings and Days of Stops

Ceremonies here happen at farms, barns, orchards and mountain lodges, and guests often stay in hotels or rentals some distance from the venue. Our wedding transportation moves the couple and the bridal party, and a guest shuttle between the hotels and the reception means no one has to find the way home on dark country roads. Venues out around Accord and Kerhonkson are a good example: many roads there are narrow and unlit after dark, and a shuttle schedule set in advance keeps the evening on track.

The vineyards around Gardiner, New Paltz and Marlboro make a natural day out, and with our wine tours one chauffeur stays with your group from the first tasting to the last. For a day that is not about wine, such as a hike drop-off near the Shawangunk Ridge, lunch in Woodstock and a pickup at dusk, an hourly booking keeps every stop included in the rate.

Higher up, the hamlets off Route 28, such as Chichester near Phoenicia, are a long way from any terminal, so a departure from there is best booked with extra time and clear directions to the house.

Choosing a Vehicle for Long Runs and Mountain Driveways

Long Thruway runs and steep driveways both call for room to spread out. A family leaving a Woodstock rental for the airport fits in a Chevrolet Suburban, which carries up to six passengers with their luggage. A wedding party or a group of friends heading to the city can stay together in one 14-passenger Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Sedans and SUVs need about a day’s notice; the Sprinter needs two days, and larger vehicles take a 25% deposit when you book.

Questions About Pickups West of the Hudson

Is Stewart always the better choice from Kingston or New Paltz?

Not always. Stewart is much closer, but it has fewer flights and destinations. If your airline flies from Stewart at a good time, choose it; if not, the longer drive to Newark, LaGuardia or JFK may still make sense. We can quote both so you can compare.

Can you take us from a Catskills rental to a wedding in Kingston and back?

Yes. For a round trip on the same night, an hourly booking keeps the chauffeur nearby; two one-way bookings work if you know when the reception ends. Add driveway or road notes to the reservation, since some rentals sit on unmarked private roads.

We are arriving at Rhinecliff by train. Can you bring us to Woodstock?

Yes. Tell us which Amtrak train you are on when you book, and the chauffeur will meet it and drive you over the Kingston-Rhinecliff Bridge and on to your address in Woodstock. Wait at the spot agreed in the reservation at the booked time, and if no one is there, phone us at once; that call keeps the station pickup from counting as a no-show.
