A comfortable way to reach the capital

Continue your Bay Area trip to Sacramento

Gold Rush streets beside the river, an afternoon in the galleries, dinner in Midtown, and a game downtown: Sacramento has several good ways to turn a visit into a weekend. Start with the part that interests you most.

History by the river · A place to begin

Old Sacramento Waterfront

Start among the historic waterfront streets, then choose the California State Railroad Museum or Sacramento History Museum to explore the city’s railroad and Gold Rush stories.

Good to know: The Railroad Museum is a substantial visit; check its current hours and admission before setting your arrival plan.

Food, parks, and city life 02

Midtown and downtown

Sacramento’s central neighborhoods put restaurants, cafés, parks, and cultural stops within a compact urban area. This is a good choice when you want to settle in and explore at your own pace.

Good to know: Give Midtown its own meal stop rather than rushing straight back after a downtown museum visit.

Art downtown 03

Crocker Art Museum

The Crocker brings together art from across centuries and cultures in a central Sacramento setting, with several galleries to explore.

Good to know: Review the museum’s visit page for its current calendar and admission details before choosing a day.

A game or live event 04

Golden 1 Center

If your visit lines up with a Kings game or a concert, the downtown arena can make a lively evening anchor for your Sacramento stay.

Good to know: Check the event calendar and venue entry guidance for your date.

Getting around

From landing to your Sacramento address

A prearranged car can connect an airport arrival with your next stop. Confirm the pickup instructions and final street address as part of your trip plan.

  1. 01Land at SFO, OAK, or SJC
  2. 02Collect your bags and meet your chauffeur using confirmed instructions
  3. 03Continue to your Sacramento hotel, home or venue
  4. 04Settle in, then explore the city

Choose a few stops, then leave room to arrive

The Bay Area airports serve different routes, and road conditions can change. Think about luggage, arrival time, and your Sacramento address when comparing a nonstop flight plus a private drive with a connecting itinerary.

  1. 01Share the airport, flight details, passenger count, and luggage needs.
  2. 02Enter your full Sacramento destination to request a route quote.
  3. 03Choose three or four sights that fit your stay rather than trying to see the whole city at once.

Plan a Sacramento transfer

Find another reason to explore.

Team guides, landmarks, neighborhood stops and ideas for the rest of your visit.

We regularly drive travelers who fly into the Bay Area and prefer a car to another flight or a connection. Whether Sacramento means family time, a convention, a Kings game or a weekend exploring California’s capital, tell us your arrival airport and final address. We will quote that journey and coordinate the airport meeting point with you.

One flight, then a drive

If a nonstop to a Bay Area airport fits your plans, a private transfer is another way to reach Sacramento. Compare the whole itinerary, including traffic, with the connecting-flight option.

Your actual destination

Use the hotel, home or venue’s full street address. Downtown, Midtown and other Sacramento-area destinations need their own route quote.

Room for the trip you packed

Share the passenger count, suitcases, carry-ons, strollers and child-seat needs so we can confirm the SUV arrangement before you travel.

A return planned in advance

For the ride back to a Bay Area airport, work backward from your airline’s recommended arrival time and leave room for road traffic.

Flying into the Bay Area for Sacramento?

A convenient nonstop can make SFO, OAK or SJC worth considering even when your final stop is Sacramento. A prearranged car takes you from the agreed airport meeting point to your destination, without arranging a rental car after landing. This can suit travelers with luggage, families and anyone who would rather leave the driving to someone else.

It is a preference, not a promise of a shorter or cheaper trip. Bay Area roads and the I-80 corridor can be busy, and the starting airport matters. Compare the full flight-and-drive plan with your available flights into Sacramento before buying a ticket. Share your arrival time and address when requesting the transfer.

Arrive for the reason you came

For a conference at the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center or meetings near the Capitol, use the venue or hotel entrance where you need to arrive. If you are visiting family, give the home address and any gate or loading instructions. A city name is only a starting point for planning.

For a game or concert at Golden 1 Center, allow for the streets around the arena to be busy and agree on a return meeting point in advance. An airport transfer does not keep the vehicle with you for the evening; reserve a separate return or ask about hourly service for multiple stops.

What to send with your request

Include the airport code, flight number, local landing date, final street address, passenger count and luggage details. Your chauffeur manually checks flight status using the flight number provided and coordinates the meeting location directly with you.

Allow for baggage collection and, on international arrivals, immigration and customs. Airport pickups include 45 minutes of waiting from flight landing; waiting beyond 45 minutes incurs a one-hour waiting charge. Confirm the applicable rate before travel. Online reservations begin tomorrow; contact BCS directly for a trip today.

The car

Your private SUV.

Full-size SUV with bottled water, phone chargers and Wi-Fi. Confirm passenger, luggage and child-seat arrangements before travel.

Currently in service: Ford Expedition.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

Can you drive us from SFO to Sacramento instead of a connecting flight?

Yes. We regularly drive travelers who choose to finish their journey by car. Enter SFO and your full Sacramento destination address, then share your flight and passenger details so the trip can be quoted and availability confirmed.

Can we arrive at OAK or SJC instead?

Yes. Request the transfer from the airport on your ticket: SFO, OAK or SJC. Each starting airport has a different route and quote. Include your final street address rather than only Sacramento.

Is a private car faster than a connecting flight?

Not necessarily. The comparison depends on your flight schedule, connection, baggage collection and road traffic. Choose the journey that fits your plans; we do not guarantee a shorter travel time or a lower total cost.

Can we book the return from Sacramento to a Bay Area airport?

Yes. Request the return leg with its own date, pickup address, airport and flight details. Allow for road traffic and the airport arrival time recommended by your airline.

Can we add sightseeing after the airport pickup?

Ask about the stops before reserving. A direct airport transfer does not include an afternoon of sightseeing or an evening return. For a vehicle that remains available between stops, request an hourly itinerary and confirm the route and duration.
