Flat rate $330 one way, either direction.

A seven-seat minivan runs a flat $330 one way between SFO and Pacific Grove — the same price to the airport as from it, no surge, no meter, no per-bag charge. For a larger party or a different car, the premium SUV and the Black SUV are priced in the booking flow, where the exact all-in fare for your vehicle is shown and confirmed before you pay.

The booking flow adds the $5.50 SFO airport fee, shown as its own line: $335.50 all-in for the seven-seat minivan.

Starting from a San Francisco hotel instead? The seven-seat minivan is $330 one way from any address in the city — no airport fee; the bridge toll is measured for your address and shown as its own line.

Pickups between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. add the published night fee, shown as its own line before you pay. Tip is not required.

Why travelers book this route

Pacific Grove is the quiet end of the peninsula, a little over two hours south of SFO — down 101, across to the coast and through Monterey to the point. The inns are Victorian houses on residential streets, and once you are there the town, the coastal trail and Cannery Row are on foot. Arriving without a car is the point; a private transfer from the arrivals curb to the inn's door makes it work.

Two hours is the wrong length for a rideshare — long enough that drivers decline it, and that the quoted price is a guess about demand — and the wrong moment for a rental-car queue. A booked car has a confirmed driver and a fare fixed before you fly.

The return to SFO books the same way, from your inn, at the same rate, timed to your flight.

Your pickup at SFO

Arrivals curb, flight tracked, driver confirmed by text

Book online in about a minute — no account, no app. A person reviews the request and texts back to confirm the ride and the fare; on the day, the driver texts before pickup and again on arrival. Then it is the drive to Pacific Grove, direct, with no other passengers and no stops.

Add your flight number

We track the flight. A late landing moves your pickup rather than losing it, and there is no waiting fee for flight delays.

Meet at the arrivals curb

Collect your bags and step out to the arrivals curb at your terminal. We text your driver's name, car and plate before you land.

Luggage goes in the car

The driver loads at the curb and unloads at your door. Enter your bag count when you book so the right vehicle comes — the minivan for a family or four large cases.

The way back, curbside

For the ride to your flight home, the driver drops you at the departures level of your terminal, with the pickup time set against your check-in.

About Pacific Grove

Pacific Grove is the small Victorian town on the point west of Monterey: Lovers Point and the coastal trail, the shops and cafés on Lighthouse Avenue, the monarch butterfly grove in winter, and the dunes at Asilomar where the road meets 17-Mile Drive.

It shares Monterey's published rate — the two towns run into each other along the waterfront. Carmel and Pebble Beach, across the hill, have their own.

  • Pacific Grove, Monterey, Seaside and Del Rey Oaks are one rate; give us the inn's name or address and the driver goes to the door.
  • Many inns are Victorian houses with no lit sign at night. Add the cross-street in the notes and the driver will find the door.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to get from SFO to Pacific Grove?

About two hours and ten minutes with the roads clear, down 101 and through Monterey to the point. Holiday weekends and the evening commute through San Jose add to that; your driver plans for it, and the fare doesn't change.

Can you pick us up directly at SFO?

Yes. Add your flight number when you book and we track the landing. Collect your bags, step out to the arrivals curb at your terminal, and your driver is there — we text the driver's name, car and plate before you land. There is no waiting fee for a late flight.

Is Pacific Grove the same price as Monterey?

Yes — one published rate covers Monterey, Pacific Grove, Seaside and Del Rey Oaks, the same in either direction. Carmel-by-the-Sea and Pebble Beach, twenty minutes further, have their own.

Is the ride private?

Yes. The car is yours alone, direct from the airport to your inn — no other passengers, no stops. It is a transfer, not a tour.

How much luggage fits?

The seven-seat minivan takes four large cases and the carry-ons, with child seats installed by the driver if you ask for them when booking — and a couple with two suitcases rides in it just as comfortably. Enter your bag count when you book and we'll say if anything looks tight.

Can you drive us from Pacific Grove back to SFO?

Yes, at the same rate. Choose 'I'm going to the airport' in the booking form and enter your inn as the pickup. Add the flight number and we set the pickup time against your check-in, with the drive up 101 allowed for.

What is added to the fare?

Only the SFO airport fee, shown as its own line in the booking flow before you pay — the drive crosses no toll bridge. No meter, no surge, no per-bag charge, no booking fee. Tip is not required.
