Limo and chauffeur service across New Brunswick

The bilingual province between the others

New Brunswick books chauffeurs for three cities that share the province's business in a triangle - Moncton's transport and call-centre hub, Saint John's port and refinery, Fredericton's government and university - for the airports in each, for the Fundy coast that visitors come for, for the Acadian Peninsula and its festivals, and for the Maine crossings that make it the Maritimes' land route to the United States. The province is Canada's only officially bilingual one and every chauffeur works in French and English. None of its cities has its own page yet; Moncton, Saint John, Fredericton, Dieppe, Bathurst, Miramichi, Edmundston and every other address price on the engine to the same standard, and this page is the map: the airports, the highways, the corridors, the weather, the sectors, the occasions and the provincial rules.

The airports

Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International - the province's busiest, ten kilometres from downtown Moncton and Dieppe - is the gateway for most of the Maritimes' low-cost and sun flights; Saint John's airport twenty minutes east of the city and Fredericton's fifteen minutes south handle the business traffic; Bathurst serves the north. Every one is on the airports page and on the engine, with the same sixty minutes of waiting on an international arrival and thirty on a domestic one.

The Trans-Canada, Route 1 and the corridors

The Trans-Canada Highway 2 runs from the Quebec border at Edmundston through Fredericton and Moncton to Nova Scotia; Route 1 runs from the Maine border at St. Stephen through Saint John to Moncton along the Fundy coast; Route 15 links Moncton to Shediac and the PEI bridge; Routes 8 and 11 run north to Miramichi, Bathurst and the Acadian Peninsula. The city-to-city service prices each as a fixed fare with the return built in.

Figures are approximate; the engine prices the exact address. The Confederation Bridge toll is added at cost where the route uses it.

The weather and the tides

New Brunswick's winter is a Maritime one in the south and an interior one in the north: Moncton and Saint John get the nor'easters and the freezing rain, Fredericton and Edmundston the deep cold, and the Trans-Canada through the highlands between them a few closures a season. Every vehicle in the fleet runs winter tyres, and New Brunswick 511 is what dispatch reads before every corridor departure. The Fundy tides are the other schedule: the Hopewell Rocks are walked at low tide and boated at high, and the chauffeur times the transfer to the tide table rather than the clock.

The language

Every chauffeur in New Brunswick works in French and English, the confirmation arrives in the language you booked in, and the desk answers the phone in either; the Acadian Peninsula, Dieppe, Edmundston and the north are booked in French as often as in English. The corporate account's invoice is issued in the language the account chose.

The sectors that book the corporate account

The transport and logistics companies at Moncton's hub, the customer-contact centres, the port, the refinery and the shipyard in Saint John, the provincial government and the University of New Brunswick in Fredericton, the cybersecurity cluster, the forestry companies in the north, the universities from Mount Allison to Moncton: the account's one monthly invoice covers the Moncton airport transfer, the Fredericton day and the Saint John port morning.

The occasions

The Fundy-coast and Saint John River weddings, the Acadian festival season in August, the June proms across the anglophone and francophone boards, the Wildcats and the Sea Dogs, the Harvest Jazz and Blues Festival in Fredericton, Area 506 in Saint John, the Festival acadien de Caraquet and the Tintamarre on August 15: the wedding, prom, sporting events and nights out pages cover each.

The Fundy coast, St. Andrews and the Acadian Peninsula

Hopewell Rocks and Fundy National Park from Moncton, the Fundy Trail Parkway and St. Martins' sea caves from Saint John, St. Andrews by-the-Sea and the Algonquin resort, Grand Manan's ferry, Shediac's beach and lobster, the Acadian Historical Village at Caraquet and the Miscou lighthouse: the city-to-city service prices the drives, the hourly chauffeur the days, and the travel desk the inns.

The rules a passenger might want to know

Chauffeurs hold the province's Class 4 licence for taxis, limousines and small buses and the vehicles carry commercial passenger insurance; the municipalities license the operators. Winter tyres are not required by law but every vehicle in the fleet runs them. Child restraints are required by the Motor Vehicle Act until the child is nine, 145 centimetres or thirty-six kilograms, and the chauffeur fits the seat at no charge when it is noted at booking. The drinking age is nineteen and alcohol in a vehicle is permitted only in a licensed limousine with a partition, for passengers of age.

What a limo costs in New Brunswick

Fixed by the addresses and the vehicle class, shown before you book. The Moncton airport to downtown or Dieppe in an Executive Sedan is the province's most-booked transfer and among the lowest airport fares on this site; the triangle's corridors, the Fundy coast and PEI are fixed fares with the return built in; the wedding and the festival day are priced by the hour with a minimum. The bridge toll is added at cost. No surge on a festival weekend, no meter, no gratuity added. The fleet page has the capacities.

Cross-border from New Brunswick

St. Stephen to Calais on Route 1 for Bar Harbor, Acadia and the Maine coast; Woodstock to Houlton on Route 95 for Bangor and the Interstate to Boston; Edmundston to Madawaska for northern Maine: the cross-border service runs on our own cars with bilingual chauffeurs who read the CBP wait times before choosing the crossing; every passenger needs a passport or NEXUS card.

Two questions New Brunswick travellers ask the desk

Do we need to speak French? No; the desk and the chauffeurs work in both languages, and the confirmation arrives in the one you booked in. When should we go to Hopewell Rocks? At low tide, and the chauffeur times the pickup to the tide table; the desk will tell you the day's window when you book. A third, asked every July: the Tintamarre and the lobster-festival weekends fill the Moncton cars a month ahead.

Booking notes by vehicle class in New Brunswick

The Executive Sedan is the Moncton-airport car and the triangle's corridor car; the Premium Sedan is the Fredericton legislature and Saint John uptown choice; the Luxury SUV is the Fundy coast, the Acadian Peninsula and the Maine vehicle and the one to book for a nor'easter month; the Executive Sprinter carries the wedding party, the festival group, the prom class and the Fundy weekend's household; the Stretch Limousine is the prom and wedding car and the only vehicle in which the province's alcohol rule permits a glass; the Minicoach is the corporate shuttle and the festival vehicle for twenty. The fleet page has the capacities and the booking page prices each class against the address.

Three New Brunswick itineraries the desk builds most often

The Moncton-airport-to-PEI transfer. Pickup at the arrivals with the flight tracked, Route 15 and the Confederation Bridge in under two hours with the toll at cost, and Charlottetown or Cavendish by evening - one fixed fare with the return built in, and the Prince Edward Island page covers the island end.

The Hopewell Rocks tide day. Moncton pickup timed to the tide table, Route 114 to the Rocks in forty-five minutes for the low-tide walk, Fundy National Park and Alma for lunch, the high-tide return to the Rocks if the party wants both, and Moncton by evening - the hourly rate for the day, and the hourly chauffeur page has the minimum.

The Saint John-to-Bar Harbor cross-border. Saint John pickup, Route 1 to St. Stephen in ninety minutes, the Calais crossing with the wait time read in advance, and Bar Harbor and Acadia by early afternoon - one fixed fare on our own car with a bilingual chauffeur, and the cross-border page has the documents.

The New Brunswick numbers a traveller might want

New Brunswick is home to roughly eight hundred thousand people and is the country's only officially bilingual province, about a third of it French-speaking; the Greater Moncton airport handled close to seven hundred thousand passengers in its last full year, more than Saint John and Fredericton combined; the Bay of Fundy's tides are the highest in the world at up to sixteen metres; and the province has four road crossings into Maine, more than any province but Ontario and British Columbia. New Brunswick 511, the Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International Airport and Tourism New Brunswick publish the figures.
