Prompt & Professional City Captain made transportation for my client's trip so convenient. It was really as easy as going to the Web site and filling-out a form with all the necessary information. My client informed me the driver promptly arrived at the airport to pick-up my client along with his travel companions, he helped with the baggage, opened car doors, waited as they checked-in to their hotel and then drove them to dinner. I would recommend City Captain to anyone. 10/17/2011

After learning about City Captain from Yelp, I decided to book them for our 20th wedding anniversary weekend getaway in San Diego. Yosief and his drivers are the best! On time, polite and professional. In fact, I don't believe we had a driver with less than a bachelor's degree. From the ipod stuffed with every type of music imaginable to the advance text letting you know that they are on the way, Yosief and City Captain will make you feel as though you have your own private driver. 11/4/2011

I've been using City Captain for almost a year now, for both business and personal... these guys never let me down (and I can be picky!) They are always early, extremely professional, love the variety of options from towncar to navigator or the party van! I have used a lot of limo / town car services in SD and these guys are definitely top notch and extremely reasonable in price! I've used them all...Those poor reviewers must be ridiculously high maintenance because these guys are good. Try finding such great customer service, professional, friendly, reliable and affordable anywhere else, because it won't happen! 12/22/2011

Hi everyone! I'm new to yelp, this is exciting to write my first review. :) Anyhoo, I love these guys. I'm not sure why anyone would use a taxi anymore when you can have a sexy-shiny-fresh-n-clean black car roll up and scoop ya. Not to mention the formally-dressed driver. (Those guys always take care of business and know the best routes.) Pretend you are in a hip hop video all the way to your destination.

Top notch service! Hands down the best transportation service I have used in San Diego. Clean vehicles, professional staff and prompt pickup. Everything I expected and more from a town car service. 2/17/2012

Flexible, prompt, friendly and professional. I've used them perhaps two dozen times for early morning airport pickup and late night airport arrivals. The personal service and first name approach makes them stand head and shoulders above the generic competition (Uber / Taxi). Their pricing is very reasonable and you get top quality for a good price. When flights change or planes are late they've always made it work, I'm sure I'll be using them for a long time.

Brett H.
Great service would not hesitate to use this company again! They were on time, the cab was clean, and the representative was great service.

We held a charity event for The Lois Merrill Foundation downtown San Diego and several of the ticket holders were from North County. Getting down and back could have been a big problem but City Captain was there for us! We reserved several cars and the drivers were great and everyone had a great night with absolutely no travel problems. The cost was great and we will use them time and again. Great service!!

Amazing transportation, amazing pricing, just amazing service all around. HIGHLY recommend.

Alex E.
I would HIGHLY recommend City Captain Transportation. The driver (Yosief) was very professional, and personable. He showed me an amazing new app for those of you with iPhones called Waze. It's much better than the iPhone mapping system, and he has it up on the dash so you know you're taking the quickest route possible. Yelp lead me to them, and it was perfect.

Where value and service are critical, CityCaptain's offering is the best in San Diego. Easy online booking, amazing drivers, prompt, thoughtful and proficient services, clean quality cars. An excellent business. +1 yr later of repeat business, probably close to 30 rides in the last 12 months, I'm staying with the rating. Unbeatable value. 2/28/2012

I first called Joseph at City Captain for a pick up about 2 years ago and used him a couple times since. Most recently I arranged for him to transport my wife and I from a wedding in Coronado and take us to our place in Rancho Penasquitos. The wedding was over around 1230am and Joseph was there right on time. His car was clean and comfortable and the service was great. I think we paid about $70 for the lift, which is comparable to a cab. I would have been comfortable paying 30 to 40 more just for the comfort, service and prompt pick up. I referred my dad and sister to Joseph, who travel for business twice a month, and they have nothing but good things to say. I will be using Joseph and City Captain for all local transportation. 3/29/2012

This is by far the best Town car service in San Diego - I used their online reservation system and it was so easy. I instantly received an email and 24 hours before my reservation I received a courtesy call to confirm the reservation and check if the times were still correct. The driver (Yosef - also the owner) showed up 10 minutes early and helped my wife and I install the baby car seat in the back of his car for our 10 minute ride to the airport. Yosef also informed me about the MyRide app that you can download. It's perfect for quick pickups as it calls all the drivers in the immediate area so they're there to pick you up in less than 5 minutes. I just booked a reservation for when we return! Thank you City Captain! 9/7/2012

Michael S.
Yosief was a consummate professional. He picked us up on time and was able to get us our dinner reservation a few minutes early. The car was clean and he was even able to pick us up early when our Easter brunch didn't take as long as we thought it would. I don't know why anyone would take a regular cab when you can take a town car at same price. Great job guys! 3/31/2013

Convenience and friendly service... seriously absolutely amazing service!!!! We were heading out of town to visit family. Our flight out was at 6:30am so we needed to be picked up at 5am. Being my typical worrier self I was concerned that such an early pick-up if missed would be a major problem since we'd be screwed... NOT the case. The car arrived at 5am sharp. Our bags were loaded into the car for us and we were on our way to the airport. We were traveling with our two little dogs and they were welcomed into the car with us. We had a very calm and relaxing ride to the airport. When we arrived at the airport it was very relaxed. The driver unloaded our bags took them to the curb for us. Our drive was extremely friendly and accommodating. When we arrived back from our trip, we picked up our bags, stepped outside to the curb and our car pulled right up and picked us up. We had a relaxing ride home. Both rides were in a luxury sedan. City Captain has great prices and amazing service. Worth every single penny. I don't care to pester friends or family to drive us to the airport. I will be using City Captain permanently! 4/20/2013

Gabe H.
Could not be anymore satisfied. Poppi was the best driver. After half an hour of trying get a taxi to pick us up another driver who was picking up a customer told us to download the myride app. We did. In about 10 minutes a driver in a very slick looking Lincoln towncar picked us up and took us from little Italy to Gaslamp for $5. He also picked us up at the end of the night quickly and promptly. No trouble, great service. Definitely will keep using these drivers. 4/28/2013

We worked with City Captain for transportation from our wedding this last week. Incredible service (confirmation calls/emails), and just all around nice professional people to work with. Website is easy to use and we'll definitely be using them again, often. 6/4/2013

I called multiple limo/transport services requesting transport for 12 to Tijuana airport from North County, San Diego with a pick up of 4 people in Chula Vista. City Captain was one of the few services that actually do this, and very reasonable pricing too. I had quite a bit of anxiety about being left high and dry in TJ with 6 adults & 6 kids,Yosief alleviated all my fears and reassured me that everything would be just fine. 10 mins before pick up time Yosief arrived, he realized that the limo van was not going to be big enough for 12 people and luggage so he brought along a town car to follow behind just for the luggage, no extra cost! 2 weeks later I emailed to confirmed our return trip, received a quick response by email and also had a text waiting for me when we arrived in Tijuana that Yosief was waiting outside for us, with the limo bus and the town car for our baggage, again no extra cost. 4 people ended up going in the town car with drop off at Chula Vista, and the 8 others took the limo bus. Pick up in TJ was @ 1137 pm, I was home in North County by 1 am, very short wait at the boarder, didn't have to get out and walk across the boarder, we just stayed in the limo bus and customs agent came to us. I can't thank Yosief enough for making sure this part of our vacation was easy and trouble free, both Yosief and his other drivers were exceptionally professional and I highly recommend City Captain for this service from San diego to Tijuana airport. I am definitely going to be a return customer. 6/30/2013

Kellie F.
Again Yosief, came through for us again... great rates and take good care of our needs.. if you want a stress free travel arrangement... go with city captain!!! 7/11/2013

We have used Josief and City Captain at least a dozen times now. You can text when you are ready to be picked up and they will let you know when they are on their way. We use City Captain for airport transportation and mainly for nights on the town with our friends where we can have a great time and not have to drive. If ever you need great, friendly , dependable transportation City Captain should be your #1 choice. 10/20/2013

Adam S.
Our family uses City Captain to get from the airport to our house on the Pacific Beach side of La Jolla. We have never been disappointed in the service. The drivers are friendly, bright, engaging, and the Lincoln town cars are clean and well cared for. We've never had an issue of any kind. The price is reasonable and we will continue to use City Captain for our transportation needs when we come to San Diego County.

Jim S.
I made a last minute reservation for an airport transfer from Oceanside. I was traveling with my 8-month old daughter so I needed a car seat so I didn't have to unpack and repack the car seat base I was traveling with. Josep called to confirm when he was on the way and actually arrived a few minutes early. He had a car seat for my daughter (YEAH!) and comfortably cooled car and water for me. I'll be booking him again for another trip to the airport in a couple weeks!

Nikeisha B.
Joe with City Captain Transport has served our family exceptionally well on two separate occasions. He arrived promptly with a toddler car seat safely and properly installed. His communication with us prior to his arrival at both our home and the airport were both helpful and timely. During the trips, he was engaging and kind with both my daughter and myself. I cannot tell you what a relief it was to have such reliable help to make solo traveling with a little one more convenient and pleasant. We will absolutely use the service again, and highly recommend it to any family needing a safe, secure ride.

City captain transportation made our trip home easy and convenient! We needed to be picked up with car seats and this is the only one we could find that offered car seat service. Our driver was friendly and the vehicle was clean and spacious. They picked us up curbside and took us back to Del Cerro overall a great experience!

We we're picked up from San Diego Airport in a clean and beautiful SUV and dropped off in Carlsbad. Great service and very friendly driver. Would recommend to anyone!!! Thank you!

Amazingly easy and affordable. Perfect easy trip from Coronado to the airport with two kids that needed carseats! They even had children's music in the car which was a big hit. Driver was delightful and friendly. Will absolutely use again! You should use them too :)

Katie Boertman
We used city captain San Diego to take us and our 3 kids (all car seats included) from the cruise ship terminal to the airport. They came early to pick us up and our driver Joe let the kids pick the music. Joe brought a giant sprinter van so we had a ton of room and didn't have to cram into an SUV! It was a smooth and easy ride! I would recommend this service for families traveling with kids!

I arrived an hour earlier than my scheduled time, the lady dispatcher and Josief were so accommodating to my arrival. Josief arrived to the airport as quickly as he could, on a super luxurious Tesla, with a toddler car seat properly installed. He drove I and my son home to Pala from San Diego airport, the ride was pleasant after a long day. Josief even added my sons favorite music, Beat Bo to his music library! Thank you City Captain for EVERYTHING.

Great service, friendly drivers, and super convenient if you are in need of transportation with car seats provided! They were so welcoming and made our time traveling around the San Diego area with an 18 month old a breeze. We didn’t have to worry about hauling our car seat across the country, renting a car, and finding/paying for parking during vacation. Joseph and Matias were great and even played children’s music and videos for our son during the rides! It was a complete pleasure meeting you and we will definitely use your service again if we are back in the area. God bless you and your families! 💕

2nd time using city captain! We have used them twice from San Diego to LEGO land using their car seats! It’s awesome not having to bring our car seats. Also they made a special trip for our kids to stop and see the ocean. Also check out their Mercedes sprinter van For larger groups! Thanks again!

I have been recommending this service to all my friends since Joseph took us to the airport a few weeks ago. He came right on time to my house with car seats already installed to transfer me and 3 kids under 5 to the airport. He even played Moana for my daughter and helped me unload all my bags for curbside check in. Thank you for making a 6:30AM airport transfer stress-free!

Love the service from the moment we made the reservation, to the pick up, to the drop off, and most important they had baby seats and we needed two of them. When we were picked up they played Disney music for the kids and great conversation with us and just made it such an easy travel experience will definitely be using them again !

My favorite is that they have a car seat already installed for my daughter when they pick us up. It’s sooooo nice to not have to hassle with installing and taking out her seat for travel.

Perfect for families traveling! For my first time traveling by myself with two kids, I was really nervous. City Captain removed a lot of that stress by picking us up, helping with baggage , having a car seat safely installed and getting us to the airport in a safe/clean car! Once we got to the airport they helped get all my luggage to the ticket counter! Amazing!! If you are a family traveling I highly recommend using City Captain!!

Great option for families that need to take a ride to the airport with kids in tow, because they have car seats available! Picked us up from San Diego a state area in a beautiful SUV. Easily booked a reservation online and they accommodated us in less than 24 hours! They also waited for us on our return trip, made the ride home so much more convenient. Highly recommend this company, they were awesome.

City Captain was the only shuttle service to provide car seats. Thank you for providing a safe traveling option for our family. Our flight landed a bit early, but City Captain was at the airport early to pick us up. Everything from the booking process through communication at the airport was simple and professional. Yoseif was an excellent/safe driver and gave us great recommendations for things to do around the city.

What a wonderful company. This is a company that specializes in accommodating families. They have all of the necessary car seats that you would need. The vehicle was extremely clean and our driver was very professional and friendly. He even played Sesame Street songs for the kiddos on the way to the airport. Communication is via telephone or text message. You even get a link to see exactly where your driver is at and his eta. Highly recommend this company and when we come back to San Diego we will be using them again.

My experience with City Captain exceeded my expectations each time I used them. Prompt, friendly, reliable and extremely family friendly. They arrived with a safely installed carseat, as requested. Perfect for making travel with a toddler less stressful. It felt like getting a ride from a friend. Being able to prebook the pickups eliminated last minute hassles with on-demand app services.

Our entire experience with City Captain was perfect. The driver called 1 hour prior to arriving to reconfirm time and make adjustments if needed and arrive promptly at the arranged time. They even upgraded our car from our reservation with no additional charge. The vehicle was spotless and the driver, Samuel, was amazing. So helpful and he even brought Starbucks to my son and his date when he returned to pick them up from dinner. I can not recommend this company enough. Polite, helpful and the prices are amazing.

We were traveling to Pacific beach in San Diego for a family reunion with our twin toddlers. We were stressed about hauling our car seats on an airplane when we knew we wouldn't need them there. So we found an affordable and friendly car service that picked us up from San Diego airport with exactly the car seats we needed for our boys' age, already installed. It's saved us a ton of hassle, and we really trusted the driver because he's a dad too! Such a great service!read more

It is so difficult to find a car service offering car seats. Luckily we found City Captain. We did not want to rent a car and City Captain was there for us. They met us at the airport when they promised. The car seat was in the car as promised. Children's music was playing in the car! The driver, Joseph, was extremely friendly. We couldn't be happier with the service we received.read more

Needed a last minute pick-up from the airport with my toddler — I had been counting on taking Uber because in New York there is a car seat option (apparently not at the SD airport).

My family and I were at the San Diego zoo and needed a quick pickup. I picked up the phone and gave them a ring. I read they had car seats readily available.

2 different experiences. The airport pick up was great. Driver was there within 10 minutes of getting our luggage and was in communication before we even got off the plane... The pick up to get back to the airport was extremely stressful, I emailed and called the day before to confirm our morning pick up with child seat. I got a call back and email back confirming it, but then the morning of, the pick up time came and went with no call. I had to call and text the company. They scrambled to find us a driver who ended up picking my wife, kid and me, and was 30 minutes late picking us up. This meant for a stressful ride to the airport and not much of a buffer in case it was busy. The driver was nice but said he had no idea he was supposed to pick us up. I don't know what we would have done otherwise.... Yosief was a real nice guy, same with other driver, but somewhere there is a communication problem. I would use them again.read more

City Captain is an excellent car service at an unparalleled price, I saved about $100 booking with City Captain. Anybody that travels with kids knows how much of a pain car seats can be. Enter City Captain each of their cars has at least three available car seats (infant, toddler, and booster seats!) the cars are new, well maintained, and the service is excellent. They have service to the airport, cruise ship terminal and everything in between. City Captain will be my first call next time I need to travel with car seats.read more

If you and your family are flying into San Diego airport and need a car service to pick you up to take you to Legoland, Sea World and other attractions, and have car seats provided for a super reasonable price, this is the company!

City Captain is amazing! We traveled to San Diego/Carlsbad with our two children, who are 3 and 5. I didn't realize Uber Family (i.e., car seats or child seats) is only available in NYC. I looked up City Captain when we landed in San Diego and called them from the tarmac. It was last minute, but as soon as I had my bag, they were there to pick us up and load all of our gear too. The nicest drivers, great cars, very responsive and accomodating - and the best for families! Also, you might get to ride in the Tesla Model X like we did on our return trip!read more

with our car seat and stroller taking off with our flight, we had to leave the airport to take our son to the children’s hospital via ambulance. We had no time to think about how we planned on getting transport back to the airport or anywhere else really. We were considering taking public transportation since Uber or Lyft does not have car seat options like they do in NYC. After a quick google search, we found city captain who answered before the first ring could finish. Our driver showed up as if he was already on his way to the hospital. The car seat and car was spacious and clean and he was able to get us to the airport as quickly as possible although we were in no hurry. If I ever needed car service with a car seat in San Diego, I’d call city captain again.read more

I called for a last minute pick up (next day) and Matthew picked up right away and confirmed their availability. Because I was coordinating for client pick ups for the next three days, and waiting confirmation of their preferences; I ended up calling and coordinating more than I had anticipated and spoke with a couple different people. They were always friendly, helpful and never made me feel as though I was inconveniencing them, even though the reservations were sometimes less than 24 hours. Our clients (who are already Tesla owners) were VERY excited when the Model X picked them up and thought we had requested it for them. Even though I was in contact via phone with them, I still confirmed my reservations thought their website. Moving forward that is the system I will use and would recommend. Our situation warranted several phone calls but through no fault of their own. They can easily accommodate larger parties and children (provide car seats). Great service, great communication! I will definitely use CCT in the future and highly recommend them. Thank you guys!read more

Amazing service! I was traveling by myself with my daughter and I really didn’t want to bring a stroller, luggage, AND car seat on our trip. Booked City Captain and they offer car seats with the car. The car seat was already installed when I was picked up and it was clean, stain-free and easy to use. (I needed a rear-facing one) The car itself was clean (a Tesla SUV) and quiet. The driver, Yosief (sp?), was very nice and helped me with all my luggage and stroller while I buckled the baby in. (Because when we got picked up, of course baby fell asleep!) He kept the conversation going without being too chatty and he took the most direct route to our destination. So, if you are needing a car service and traveling with a baby, I would highly recommend using City Captain! It made it so much easier to have to worry about one less thing (car seat) to carry. And the service was great.read more
