Best Hamptons Car Services from NYC (2026)
Manhattan to East Hampton by private car: who covers the Hamptons, and what it really costs.
By Luxury Travel NYC Editorial··7 min read

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.

How we ranked
We compared each company only on what it publishes on its own website, checked November 8, 2026. Where a company does not publish something, we say so rather than guess. The criteria, in order of weight:
- Price transparency — whether the price you see includes taxes, tolls and fees.
- Airport waiting included — how long the car waits after landing before extra charges.
- Coverage — the boroughs, suburbs, states and airports served.
- Published rates and minimums — whether hourly rates and example fares are public.
- Fleet range and track record — vehicle choice, licensing and years in business.
The bottom line
- For an all-in fare to the Hamptons: True North VIP.
- For clear booking terms: Black Car NYC.
- For a group: Artisan Limo.
