Cable Car Charters

We only needed a few hours of transportation to get people out of the Presidio. Cable Car Charters offered a 3-hour minimum, which made them one of the least expensive options. We looked into Mexican Party Bus, but they were re-doing their busses or something. The up-front fee that you pay Cable Car Charters includes the gratuity and everything, so there is nothing to worry about the day of the event. The guests thought that the Cable Car was a great San Francisco specialty (80% of our guests were from OOT). The driver showed up almost an hour early and was willing to start taking people then and still go as late as scheduled. CCC didn't mind me changing the locations where people were dropped off, and they managed to make everything run smoothly.

We hired four trolleys through Cable Car Charters to manage the transportation of our guests for our wedding. We were really, really excited about this, and our guests loved it.

I worked with Kris to organize all the details. He. is. awesome. He let me come in to measure the trolleys so we could put signs on the sides of them. We had some issues trying to figure out where the trolleys could drive at our ceremony venue, Crissy Field (this is because management at Crissy Field was totally crappy), and they went above and beyond by sending a trolley OUT THERE to see where they could go. I had to call Kris about 400 times because the people at Blick Art supplies were jerks about cutting down the board for our signs, and he was totally nice to me even though I must have been annoying the crap out of him.

I had to knock off a star though. The trolleys drove where they said they couldn't, which kind of messed up the plan we had for the guests entering into the ceremony site. Granted, our day-of-coordinators were NOT helpful and didn't give them proper instructions, but I felt like the trolley drivers could have taken more initiative to know what was going on. I think 5-stars requires exceptional service, and this wasn't really exceptional. My husband had to manage them before the day-of-coordinators did, and he said it was kind of difficult.
