Limo Etiquette: How to Make the Most of Your Ride in Edmonton

Embarking on a luxurious limo ride in Edmonton is an experience that deserves a touch of sophistication and courtesy. A City Limos is here to guide you through proper limo etiquette, ensuring you make the most of every moment during your stylish journey through the city.

1. Punctuality Matters:

Respect your own time and your chauffeur’s time and arrive promptly for your limo service. Punctuality not only sets a positive tone for your ride but also ensures a smooth and timely journey through Edmonton’s vibrant streets. At the end of the day, the time starts at your scheduled time and ends at the scheduled time. Any overtime or delays can really cause a hamper in your plans and may cut into your service time to stay within the scheduled time.

2. Communication with Chauffeur:

Establish clear communication with your chauffeur regarding any specific requests or preferences. Whether it’s adjusting the temperature, changing the music, or making an additional stop, open and respectful communication enhances the overall limo experience.

3. Seating Arrangements:

Coordinate with your fellow passengers regarding seating arrangements. If you have a specific seating preference, communicate it in advance to the chauffeur. This ensures that everyone is comfortable and accommodated during the ride.

4. Respecting the Vehicle:

Treat the limousine with care and respect. Avoid any behavior that may cause damage to the interior or exterior. By respecting the vehicle, you contribute to a positive experience for both yourself and future passengers.

5. Keep the Noise Level Moderate:

While enjoying your ride, be mindful of the noise level. Whether engaging in conversation, listening to music, or making celebratory toasts, maintaining a moderate noise level ensures a comfortable environment for everyone on board. Cranking up the volume on the sound system can be uncomfortable for passengers near the speakers and overdoing it may even cause a speaker to blow, so please play music at a moderate level.

6. Appropriate Attire:

Dress appropriately for the occasion, especially if you’re heading to a formal event or celebration. Looking your best not only enhances your own experience but also contributes to the overall elegance of the limo ride.

7. Enjoy Responsibly:

If your limo service includes alcoholic beverages, enjoy them responsibly. All our vehicles are licensed by AGLC so as long as everyone is 18 or over, alcohol is allowed on board. Respect the provincial bylaws and regulations regarding alcohol consumption, and ensure that everyone in the limo is comfortable with the chosen beverages.

8. Gratitude and Tipping:

Show appreciation to your chauffeur for their service. A simple thank you goes a long way, and if you’re satisfied with the service, consider leaving a gratuity. Tipping is a common practice in the limo industry and is a gesture of acknowledgment for a job well done. In most cases, an automatic Gratuity is applied so this may not apply but its always nice to show your gratitude to the driver regardless.

9. Cleanliness and Respect:

Maintain cleanliness inside the limousine. Dispose of any trash properly, and treat the vehicle with care. Respecting the cleanliness of the limo ensures a pleasant experience for all passengers.

10. Personal Safety:

Prioritize personal safety during the ride. Follow safety guidelines provided by the chauffeur, use seat belts, and refrain from any activities that may compromise safety. A secure and comfortable ride is the goal for everyone on board.
