transportation: presidential, bell trans, earth limo, awg etc?
So I contacted presidential asking for info and rates for multiple bookings as I see that they have decent reviews on google, yelp and so on. I said I needed a bus to transport 40-50 people from Aria to Caesars on these dates and asked if we could do 2 1-hr booking (4-5pm, then 6-7pm). And also we're doing our photoshoot on two separate days, so another 2 2-3hr limo needed for at least 3 people.
The reply I got was short, and not friendly at all. He said they do not do 1 hour bookings, and told me to go to their sister company bell trans instead. He didn't even bother to tell me their own rates. I know about bell trans already but was hesitant to book them as their reviews online aren't that great at all...
I emailed back again saying it's okay I can work with 2 hour bookings and asked about more info and booking procedures. And all I got back was "the 28 passenger is $180 an hour and the 24 would be $160 an hour". That's IT. Am I asking for too much if I'm expecting just a little more friendliness in their emails..?!
so... I don't feel comfortable doing business with them anymore. Not a good first impression at all.. so what am I left with? Earth limo seems to have decent reviews, and what about AWG?
Any input is welcome! thanks in advance!! 62 more days!

Re: transportation: presidential, bell trans, earth limo, awg etc?
I emailed a lot of places and most emailed back with either a short reply, or a more detailed list except for Exotic Limousines which replied to me with some details and then when I asked for some more info, the lady replied in ALL CAPS. I replied and told the girl that ALL CAPS comes across as yelling and told her she should try not to do that in the future. Then I ignored any future emails from her because there are so many limo companies in Vegas, you shouldn't have to deal with snooty, angry, and/or uninformative replies.
So in a round about way, I'm trying to say you should definitely check with someone else!
My quotes were all for Vegas to the Valley of Fire so I am not sure what their normal rates are, most companies charge about a 4 hour minimum for outside of Vegas, maybe some will be less if you're staying on the strip. Also, some will allow you to bring food & alcohol, some will only be one or the other or nothing.
The company I went with, LD Tours, was awesome to deal with. Mark was super friendly and always promptly replied. We're also allowed to bring all our own snacks, water and alcohol on the busses we got.
Some of the other companies I checked with were: VIP limos, Exotic limousines (do NOT recommend after the 'angry' replies), Bell Trans, Earth Limos (very friendly, but they were the most expensive), Presidential Limo, 5 star, AWG, Abraham Limo service and of course, LD Tours.
