NYC to Hamptons by Sprinter Van: Summer Weekend Guide

Skip the Jitney: Hamptons in Style

Every summer weekend, thousands of New Yorkers make the pilgrimage to the Hamptons. Most endure crowded buses, delayed trains, or stressful drives. There's a better way.

Why a Sprinter Van to the Hamptons?

#

Group Economics
Split a Sprinter van with friends:
- 8 people = ~$60-75 each way per person
- Compare to $45-65 Jitney tickets with none of the flexibility

#

Door-to-Door Service
No Jitney stop in Southampton village, then Uber to your rental. We drop you at the front door of your beach house.

#

Bring Everything
Beach chairs, coolers, luggage, wine cases — our cargo space handles it all.

#

Start the Party Early
BYOB is welcome. Champagne on the LIE beats a crowded bus.
