In brief

  • True North VIP is our top Hamptons pick: it lists the Hamptons in its coverage and quoted $508.58 all-in from Times Square to East Hampton in an Executive Sedan. Black Car NYC also lists the Hamptons.

A private car to the Hamptons is the easiest way to arrive with luggage and no transfers, but it is a long, toll-heavy drive, and summer Fridays are slow. Coverage and an all-in price matter more here than anywhere.
