Applause Limousine Services

This was our first experience with Tony, and with Applause Limo Services, and it was fantastic! We needed a 3 am ride to the airport and had 6 passengers who were groggy and a bit cranky! Tony was there right on time and is so personable and professional. He made the ride to the airport fun and his beautiful limo and service made us feel like movie stars! When we flew back home a week later, our flight came in 30 minutes early and I was a bit worried if we would be waiting curbside since it was 11:30 pm. No need to worry — Tony texted that he was there while we were still waiting for our luggage! He is a great guy with a great attitude and superb service. We would not hesitate to call him again or recommend him to friends and family. You are in good hands with Tony!

My fiancé coordinated a wine tasting day in Livermore for our friend’s birthday and we hired Applause to take care of us for the day. Tony was super easy to work with to set up the limo and confirmed everything a couple days before our reservation.
Josh was our driver and he went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time! He let us add on time since we were enjoying ourselves at the winery– even ran to the store to grab us drinks while were at a tasting. He was so flexible, accomodating, and super friendly. We’ll be hiring them again for our next wine tasting weekend.

Great experience! Tony was helpful and accommodating. We rented for a 40^th birthday wine tasting tour. Price was reasonable and service was prompt. The limo was clean, smelled good and was in good repair.
My only complaint would be that I wish I had warning that there wasn’t any usb cable to hook up my phone — I could have brought my own. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the limo so it worked out fine to listen to the radio though.
I would rent again! Thanks!

We enjoyed the services of this company on our wedding day. The driver was very polite and he accommodated our grandparents and their wheelchairs with the upmost professionalism

Tony was fantastic. We booked him on NYE for an event in the city. He was friendly, fun, punctual and went out of his way to get us as close as possible for pick up and drop off so that we wouldn’t have to walk far. Also booking the limo was a breeze. The price was very fair and he and his wife were great with communication. The Chrysler 300 was a great vehicle with a good sound system which made for a great time during transport to and from the venue. Tony by far, provided the best limo experience I’ve had to date. Book with Tony and have a fun and stress free night/​event.

Tony and his team are awesome! He’s very prompt, will text/​call you ASAP for any changes. I always felt I was on the same page with him throughout the process. Great communication all the way, which gives me peace of mind knowing that he’ll be there on time. I needed to schedule transportation for a group of execs from my company and Tony has been really helpful throughout the process. From the beginning of him explaining the full details to the end of him calling me and reassuring me that all passengers are safe and sound. I am glad that we booked Applause. His company is well organized, professional, and genuine and that’s what I like about Tony. Thank you Tony for delivering excellent service and accommodating our teams even with unexpected requests. I really appreciate your business. Thank you.

For a number of years I took a yellow colored taxi based out of Pleasanton for all my airport trips. They started to be more and more unreliable and I had to look for an alternative. Also for years I would drive by a local house that had limos parked out in front at times. So, one day I stopped, introduced myself to Tony and from that day forward Applause Limo became my #1 and ONLY means of transportation for business, pleasure, personal and even my daughter’s wedding two months ago.
I have used Applause now for about 5 years and they are a 5 star, top shelf business. Never had an issue with them being late or anything. yeah, it might happen sometime because stuff can happen to any company — big or small.
What I love is that the company is locally owned and operated by a husband and wife. They have kids and have deep roots in the community, and they care about the business and their customers, like me (a cold Coke ZERO waits for me on every ride home). They have a few select drivers that are also personable, friendly and professional. I have gotten to know all of them, but in particular have a wonderful friendly relationship with the owner Tony.
You want a service you can depend on that is competitively priced, professional and locally owned? :Look no further than Applause Limo of Livermore!

Wow — What a night for my sons 13^th birthday party! Tony was a first class host and the car was beautiful. Thanks for a great time and see you for our wine tour really soon!

Daughters 13^th birthday was great with the help from Applause Limousine. Tony showed up exactly when he said he would. The limo was clean inside and out and he had sparkling cider for the girls. I would definitely use them again for our future needs.

Excellent service and awesome people! Highly recommend!!! We had Antonio as our driver and he was very professional, courteous, and just had all around great service. He even called ahead to wineries to let them know we were coming… We were not expecting above and beyond service. We ran very late, but he made sure we we’re taken care of by ensuring we visited all the wineries we wanted. We never felt rushed and he was willing to accommodate us as the schedule went on. Thank you to all the applause staff!

I chose Applause because of the great Unilocal reviews, and Tony was just as great as the reviews said. We took my daughter wine tasting in the Livermore Valley and he was absolutely charming as well as timely. I can’t recommend him high enough. Well done!

I have reached out to several limo services for my wedding. When I spoke to Tony, he was the first person to make feel that he is the right person for the job as other vendors was just trying to push me to sign a contract.
Days before the wedding Tony double checked with me to ensure the time frame that I needed him for. Tony showed up early and ensured that we got to the wedding venue early. He even recommended alternate route to ensure that we were on-​time.
Inside the limo looked awesome, the stereo sounded perfect and the wine and beer really hit the spot.
I would totally recommend Tony for anyone’s limo needs.

I contacted Applause looking for limo services for my daughter’s Jr Prom group last month. Tony was great to deal with and very accommodating in helping keep the cost within our teen’s budget. I liked that the the price i was quoted was all inclusive — no hidden fees. He told me up front how the charge would vary if our number of passengers changed (which it did). Tony was professional, personable and provided hands-​on caring service throughout.
My daughter’s group of 19 had a pair of beautiful limos (one white & the other black) that suited our needs perfectly. Tony and their other Applause driver took great care of our teens adding nice touches such as sparkling cider, light effects, sound system and such. They had a blast and we parents knew they were in great hands that night. Applause will be the first limo company I contact going forward!

Applause limo deserves 6 stars! Tony is a fun loving, professional who is passionate about providing a great experience and a very high level of service. We hired Applause Limo for a bachelor party and the service was over the top… very classy and a true professional. I have dealt with shady, flaky limo drivers in the past so this experience was very much appreciated and worth writing about!

We used Applause Limo yesterday for lunch and wine tasting through the Livermore Valley for Valentines Day. Tony was amazing from the first phone call. Super accommodating and helped with the planning of a surprise for my husband. The limo was clean and gorgeous. And Tony was so helpful in taking us to the different wineries since we weren’t sure which ones we wanted to visit. We had an incredible day, it was relaxing and enjoyable thanks to Applause Limo. Hire them, you won’t be sorry.

I found Applause limo through Unilocal and thought I’d come back to give it a review.
I planned a girls wine tasting trip with me friends and we really just needed a designated driver as I came up with the tasting itinerary.
The booking process was incredibly easy, I did everything online. I really liked the fact that the gratuity was already included and we could tip more if we wanted (we did). Chad, our driver, was very nice and helpful. The limo was great, we had the Chrysler 300, it was clean, fully stocked with water and a bottle of champagne.
I would highly recommend this business if you need limo service in the Tri Valley.

My husband and I travel on regular basis. Many times taking another limo service to the airport. I have felt frustrated by the lack of competition in the Tri-​Valley.
FINALLY a service that has great attention to the customer with personal care! Going to the airport we had a wonderful driver Phillip.
I called a bit last minute for the ride home and Tony was quick to make sure he was the one picking us up.
I would highly recommend Applause Limousine Services to everyone!

We had booked Applause Limo for our wedding that was just a few weekends ago, and I was a little upset after it was all said and done.
First off, the booking and arrangement of the limos was amazing, Tony did a wonderful ob making sure that all of our needs were met and that we were getting exactly what we wanted and for the price that we could afford as well.
It wasn’t until the day of the wedding that I was taken aback by the treatment that we received. Pick up at the hotels went great and the limos were very nice and in excellent condition. My parents and all of the other parties that took the limo to the venue said how nice everything was and that the service was «alright».
It wasn’t until the wedding that we ran into some issues. We had said that we wanted an 11:00pm pick up at the wedding venue, but as we were cleaning things up and making sure we had everything we needed, the limo drive informed us that if no one was in his limo by 11:10pm, that he would be leaving. This caught us off guard because not only had we paid for their services, but there was no talk about maybe us paying some extra money to have them stay a little longer… it was just get in or we are leaving.
The groom and I had to stay to take care of some things before we left so we let some other guests and some bridal party members take the limo back, leaving him and I being stuffed in a family members car when we were finished at 11:20pm.
It was a shame that the end of such an amazing day had to be like this, and we would have appreciated some negotiation about the time as that was supposed to be our ride back to our hotel. i understand that we agreed upon the pick up time, but just wish that it would have been handled in a more professional manner.
Other than that incident, like I said that limos were great, clean, and on time… just think they should maybe work on their customer service and communication skills with their customers better then people are spending a good amount of money ($ 1,000) on their services.

Decided to do something extra special for my 25^th birthday… wine tasting in Livermore with a bunch of friends! And what better way to get around than a limo. I often rely on Unilocal for businesses, restaurants etc…, and I have to say the reviews for this limo company are spot on. Tony is very easy to work with and talk to. I was in a bind because the 12-​person limo was booked for the day I wanted, yet I only had 12 people. Tony offered to pro-​rate the price for a 20-​person limo, but still encouraged me to find more friends. I called him back numerous times with more people and each time he was willing to update my agreement. I really appreciated his professionalism. Oh… and here is the best part. The day of my party, expecting to get a hummer limo… Tony hooked it up with a PARTY BUS!!! Um what? The party bus was so much fun. They have plenty of ice for any alcohol you want to bring on and they also supplied us with waters. I had the best time… the four hours went by so fast. Applause chose the wineries for us. We ended up going to 2 wineries in 4 hours because we wanted to stay on the party bus and dance. I can’t thank Tony and the rest of applause limo for making my birthday the best one yet! Don’t go with anyone else… choose this company if you want the best price, customer service, and the best memories!

Wedding day service…
Excellent and prompt customer service from Tony when booking. Great prices as well. I can’t remember our driver’s name on the wedding day (so sorry driver, the day was a blur!), but he was great, too, reliable, punctual and friendly.
I will definitely use their service again, in fact, I am going to try to book them for my husband’s birthday wine-​tour in a couple of weeks. Hope we can get them again, because I know they will be great!

Thank you Tony! Your limo was gorgeous and well stocked. We did beer tasting, thank you for providing beer in limo too. Tony was so polite and friendly, made us feel so welcome. The limo was the Chrysler and was perfect for 8 of us. He was right on time always waiting for us. We did 3 breweries and one winery. With every penny. 400 for four hours. Perfect way to celebrate my hubbys 60^th birthday!

Everything was awesome! Would defiantly use them again! My moms birthday went as planned! Couldn’t of asked for a better limo & driver! Tony was polite, on time and made sure everyone was having a great time!

Applause Limo is the absolute best! Here’s why:
–Lowest prices
–Nice and clean cars
–Always early for pick-​ups
–Great drivers
–Tony’s #1 priority is amazing customer service
I’ve been using Applause twice per week (Livermore — SFO) since March and have had only positive experiences.

I have always done Sonoma or Napa for wine tasting but we wanted to try Livermore so I turned to Unilocal since I had no idea where to start. When I see a full 5 star rating I’m usually weary but I went with my gut after speaking with Tony and I’m SO glad I did.
It’s true what everyone says on here! He is great, easy to work with, friendly and reasonably priced. When the limo pulled up my mom said (it was her birthday), «this is the nicest limo I think I’ve ever been in!» Which of course made me happy. It’s a beautiful limo!
Livermore was great (only winery I didn’t love was Rubino) so we will for sure be back and will for SURE be using Applause! Thank you!
