Multi-Day Itineraries · Private Chauffeur
Leave the city.
Keep the car.
Yosemite, Sequoia, Death Valley, Joshua Tree, Zion, the Grand Canyon. One Cadillac Escalade ESV and one chauffeur for the entire route, arranged as a single itinerary and quoted as one program.
The whole route, one vehicle
The drive is the part most people get wrong.
A park trip out of Los Angeles is not a transfer. It is four to eight hours of highway each way, a full day inside the park, mountain roads after dark, and luggage that has to live in the vehicle the whole time. Booked as separate rides it falls apart. Booked as one itinerary, with one Escalade and one chauffeur held for your dates, it becomes the easiest part of the trip.
We plan the route day by day so the driving is spread sensibly, carry your bags for the duration, and hand back one proposal with one total. Your chauffeur’s overnight arrangements are ours to sort out, not a line you have to think about.
Where people go
Approximate one-way drive times from central Los Angeles. The itinerary we send back states the real timings from your pickup address.
Joshua Tree
about 2 hours 30 minutes
Comfortable as a long single day, and better as an overnight if you want the light at either end of the day.
Sequoia & Kings Canyon
about 4 hours
Usually the first half of a two-day route, paired with Yosemite on the second day.
Death Valley
about 4 hours 30 minutes
An overnight route. The distances inside the park are long, which is exactly where having a driver earns its keep.
Yosemite Valley
about 6 hours
Two days minimum from Los Angeles. Most guests stay in or near the valley and run a full day inside the park.
Zion & Bryce Canyon
about 6 hours 30 minutes to Zion
A three-day shape once Bryce is added, often continuing rather than returning the way it came.
Grand Canyon, South Rim
about 8 hours
Two or three days. Frequently combined with Sedona or Antelope Canyon on the return.
Somewhere else in mind? Big Sur, Santa Barbara wine country, Palm Springs, Sedona and Las Vegas run on the same footing. Send us the route and we will lay out the days.
One itinerary, one total
The same car, the whole way out and the whole way back.
How a multi-day itinerary runs
Send the shape, not the detail
Your dates, the parks you want, where you are staying in Los Angeles and how many of you there are. That is enough for us to draft a route.
We lay out the days
One proposal covering every day, the mileage, the chauffeur's time and their overnight arrangements. One total, one invoice, no per-ride maths.
One car, one chauffeur
A named chauffeur is held for your dates and stays with the itinerary start to finish. Your luggage stays in the vehicle throughout.

Before you send the itinerary
Can I hire a private car and driver from Los Angeles to Yosemite?
Yes. One Cadillac Escalade ESV and one chauffeur are assigned to the whole itinerary, so the same vehicle and the same driver take you from your Los Angeles address to the park and back. The drive is roughly six hours each way, which makes Yosemite a two-day trip at minimum. We handle the chauffeur's overnight arrangements and fold them into a single quote rather than billing them separately.
How long is the drive from Los Angeles to Sequoia, Yosemite or the Grand Canyon?
Approximately four hours to Sequoia, six to Yosemite Valley, and eight to the Grand Canyon's South Rim, one way from central Los Angeles in normal traffic. Joshua Tree is about two and a half hours and Death Valley about four and a half. Those are planning figures; the itinerary we send back states the real timings from your pickup address, including stops.
Is it the same chauffeur for the whole trip?
Yes, that is the point of running it as one program. A named chauffeur is assigned to your dates and stays with the itinerary from the first pickup to the final drop-off, so nobody is re-briefing a new driver on day two and the vehicle stays loaded with your luggage throughout.
How is a multi-day national park itinerary priced?
As one program rather than a stack of separate transfers. Send the dates, the parks you want, your pickup address and the party size, and we return a single proposal covering every day, the mileage, the chauffeur's time and their overnight arrangements, with one total and one invoice. Long-distance itineraries are quoted directly rather than published, because the route and the pace change the number.
Will a Cadillac Escalade ESV hold luggage for several days away?
Yes. The ESV is the extended-wheelbase Escalade, and for a park itinerary we usually carry four guests with the third row folded, which leaves the entire rear of the vehicle for luggage, coats and camera gear. Six guests with lighter bags also works. Tell us the party size and what you are bringing and we will confirm the fit before you book.
Is a chauffeur better than renting a car for a national park trip?
For most guests, yes, and for one reason: the driving is the hard part. These are long days on mountain roads, often finishing after dark, and a rental means whoever is behind the wheel sees less of the trip than everyone else. A chauffeur also means no navigation, no parking, and no one negotiating an unfamiliar road tired at the end of a long day.
Can you combine several parks in one itinerary?
That is the most common request. Sequoia and Yosemite pair naturally over two days, and the Grand Canyon is often combined with Sedona or Antelope Canyon on the return. We will lay the route out day by day so the driving is spread sensibly rather than stacked into one punishing stretch.
Tell us where you want to go
Dates, parks, pickup address and party size. We will come back with the route laid out day by day and one number for the whole thing.
