One group. A journey planned around you.
Group transportation.
Chicago, together.
Bring your people together with private group transportation in Chicago. Rioja Limousine offers chauffeured travel for airport arrivals, business gatherings, celebrations and shared days out. Start with your passenger count, luggage and schedule, and request a vehicle arrangement that fits the whole journey.
A good group trip begins before the first pickup. Clear meeting points, enough room for everyone and an agreed return plan help your guests spend less time coordinating rides and more time enjoying the occasion.
Around Chicago
Travel together across Chicago
Whether you are organizing a family visit or bringing colleagues to an event, plan transportation around the people traveling and the places they need to be.
01
Airport arrivals and departures
Arrange private transportation between O’Hare or Midway and your hotel, home or event venue. Share every flight number and the total luggage count, especially when travelers are arriving on separate flights. Confirm whether the group will meet together or need separate pickups.
02
Meetings and conventions
Keep your team’s travel details in one itinerary, from hotel departures to conference arrivals and dinner afterward. For McCormick Place or a Rosemont convention, provide the event name and the entrance specified by the organizer, along with the time everyone needs to arrive.
03
Weddings and private celebrations
Build a transportation request around the ceremony, reception or gathering. Include each pickup address, the number of guests at each stop and the return arrangements. For several departures, ask Rioja to confirm the vehicles and schedule before sharing travel instructions with guests.
04
City outings and evening plans
Travel with friends or family for a Chicago sightseeing day, restaurant reservation, concert or sporting event. Let the team know whether you need one transfer, a return journey or a vehicle reserved for several stops. Event tickets and venue reservations are arranged separately.
The right fit for your journey
Choose a vehicle around passengers and luggage
The right group vehicle depends on more than the number of seats. Checked bags, carry-ons, strollers and equipment all need space. Rioja’s published fleet includes luxury sedans, executive SUVs and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans.
- Luxury sedans: an option for a small traveling party or a separate transfer for an individual guest.
- Executive SUVs: consider an SUV for a smaller group with luggage, subject to the assigned model’s capacity.
- Sprinter vans: Rioja lists 12- and 14-passenger configurations. Confirm the exact configuration and usable luggage space for your trip.
For a larger group, request a suitable arrangement before booking. Do not assume that an extra seat, additional vehicle or larger vehicle will be available on the day. Tell the team about accessibility needs and child seats when requesting your quote.

A little planning goes a long way
Group airport transportation at O’Hare and Midway
Airport coordination works best when the booking includes the airline, flight number, arrival date, passenger contact and luggage details. Add a realistic allowance for baggage collection and, where relevant, international arrival procedures.
If guests land at different times, decide whether they will wait for each other or travel separately. One shared pickup can suit a group arriving together; separate reservations may be more practical when arrivals are spread across the day.
Use the meeting instructions supplied for your reservation. Terminal arrangements can differ, so confirm the pickup point, any meet-and-greet service and the waiting-time terms with Rioja. For the return flight, provide the departure time and your preferred airport arrival time.
Made around your plans
Transfers or hourly service: choose your trip format
Point-to-point transportation suits a defined journey, such as a hotel pickup followed by a drop-off at a venue. A return trip should be included in the reservation rather than left to an assumption.
Hourly group transportation can suit an itinerary with several stops or an agreed period of vehicle availability. Share the planned route, expected waiting periods and final destination so Rioja can confirm the arrangement.
For repeated hotel-to-venue trips, describe the number of runs and the time between departures. A shuttle-style schedule needs its own confirmed plan; it is not automatically included in a single transfer or hourly booking.
A little planning goes a long way
Make the meeting point easy to find
A street address is useful, but a specific meeting instruction is better. Include the hotel entrance, venue gate or designated passenger loading area your guests should use. At McCormick Place, the building and event entrance matter because the campus has multiple buildings and transportation gates.
Choose one lead passenger who can be reached by phone. Share the final pickup instructions with the group, ask guests to arrive ready to depart and communicate passenger-count changes before travel. For a busy event, agree on the return meeting point as well as the return time.
Allow room in the schedule for traffic, boarding and venue access. A planned departure time helps organize the group, but road conditions and event restrictions can still affect the journey.
A little planning goes a long way
What affects the cost of group transportation?
Your quote depends on the travel date, vehicle arrangement, route, duration, number of stops and any requested waiting time. An airport transfer and a multi-stop evening need different planning, even when the passenger count is the same.
Request a written quote that sets out the service included and any applicable charges. Confirm minimum booking time, overtime, waiting time, parking, tolls, gratuity and cancellation terms before reserving.
When comparing options, compare the complete itinerary and confirmed capacity. A lower headline price is only useful if it covers the space, stops and timing your group actually needs.

Answers before you go
Chicago group transportation FAQs
A few practical details to help you plan your journey.
Can I book one vehicle for a group in Chicago?
Yes, if a suitable vehicle is available for your date and the passenger and luggage requirements fit. Share both counts with Rioja before reserving. A larger group may need a different arrangement or more than one vehicle.
Do you offer group transportation from O’Hare and Midway?
Rioja provides private airport transportation for individuals, families and groups at O’Hare and Midway. Send your flight information, group size, luggage and destination so the team can confirm the appropriate pickup arrangement.
How many people can travel in a Sprinter van?
Rioja’s published fleet includes 12- and 14-passenger Mercedes-Benz Sprinter configurations. The vehicle assigned to your reservation must be confirmed, along with space for your luggage. Do not book solely on the largest advertised seating figure.
Can you collect guests from more than one hotel?
Request each hotel pickup when submitting the itinerary. Rioja needs to confirm the route, stop sequence, timing and price. Additional stops should not be treated as included unless they appear in the agreed booking.
Can we reserve transportation to McCormick Place?
You can request a group transfer to McCormick Place with Rioja. Include the event, building, arrival time and designated passenger entrance. Follow the organizer’s current access instructions when finalizing the pickup and drop-off plan.
Can I book a vehicle for several stops?
Ask for an hourly or multi-stop arrangement and provide your itinerary. Confirm the reserved hours, allowed stops, waiting arrangements and any overtime charges. A standard one-way transfer does not automatically keep the vehicle available afterward.
What if our flights arrive at different times?
Send all flight details before booking. Discuss whether one shared pickup or separate transfers will work better, and confirm how waiting time and changes are handled. Avoid setting a departure time before the last travelers can reasonably be ready.
Are child seats or accessible vehicles available?
Tell Rioja exactly what you need before paying for a reservation. Child seats and accessibility arrangements require specific confirmation; do not assume every vehicle has the same equipment or boarding access.
How far ahead should I book group transportation?
Request availability once your date, headcount and main itinerary are known. For conventions, weekends and holiday travel, allowing more planning time gives you an opportunity to confirm suitable options before finalizing guest instructions.
How do I get a group transportation quote?
Use the booking link or call Rioja at +1 773-948-1028. Have your date, passenger and luggage counts, pickup locations, destinations and approximate schedule ready. Ask for the complete confirmed price and terms for that itinerary.
