Somerset NJ Limo Service
Premium chauffeured transportation for Somerset and Franklin Township. Basking Ridge Limousine Services is a women-owned luxury limo company serving Somerset County since 2015 — from a black-tie wedding at the Palace at Somerset Park to early-morning Newark Airport runs off the Davidson Avenue corporate corridor.
When you need Somerset limo service you can count on, Basking Ridge Limousine Services delivers. If you live or work in Somerset, you already know how tricky it can be to find a transportation company that actually shows up on time, drives a vehicle worth riding in, and treats you like more than just a name on a clipboard. That's where we come in. Basking Ridge Limousine Services is a women-owned chauffeured transportation company that has served Somerset County since 2015 — from the neighborhoods of Franklin Township off Easton Avenue and Route 27 to the hotel and corporate cluster along Davidson Avenue near I-287. From early-morning Newark Airport runs to the wedding day you've been planning at the Palace at Somerset Park, we treat every ride like it matters. Because it does.
Why Somerset Chooses Us
Three reasons we've become a trusted name for luxury transportation across Somerset County.
Proudly Women-Owned
One of the only women-owned luxury transportation companies serving Somerset County. The bottled water is the brand you actually like. The chauffeur knows to text instead of ring the doorbell when the baby is napping. The pickup time has a five-minute buffer because mornings are chaotic. The small stuff adds up.
A Fleet Worth Talking About
No tired 2018 sedans with 200,000 miles. Our fleet runs current — 2024 and 2025 model years — including luxury sedans, premium SUVs like the Cadillac Escalade Platinum and Lincoln Navigator, the Mercedes Sprinter Maybach limo and GMC Yukon stretch limousines, Sprinter and Transit vans, and party buses for groups up to 57 passengers.
24/7 Live Dispatch
When you call at 3:47 AM because your flight got moved up, a real person picks up. Not a voicemail. Not a chatbot. Someone who can look at the dispatch board and tell you exactly when your chauffeur will be at your door. Every hour. Every day. Always.

🏙️ NYC & Philadelphia City Tours
Some of the best days out start with a chauffeur who knows the city. From Somerset, we put together private sightseeing tours of Manhattan and Philadelphia — you set the itinerary, we handle the driving, parking, and timing.

🚢 Cruise & Port Transfers
The last thing you want before a cruise is a parking-garage scramble with a pile of luggage. From Somerset, we get your group and all its bags to the pier on time — and we're waiting at the curb when you sail back in.

A great bachelor or bachelorette party deserves a ride that's part of the celebration — and a professional designated chauffeur so nobody in the group has to sit it out. From Somerset, our party buses and stretch limousines keep the whole night moving.
Nights out we plan all over the region:
- NYC nightlife — rooftop bars, clubs, and late-night dinners
- Winery & brewery tours — across New Jersey and Pennsylvania
- Atlantic City casino runs — a straight shot down the Garden State Parkway
- Local Somerset County bar crawls — New Brunswick and beyond
Our stretch limousines and party buses handle groups up to 57, with a professional chauffeur behind the wheel all night long. Everything is booked at confirmed pricing with no surge — even on a Saturday night.
