Riverbend Charters

We used Riverbend over the course of a 4-​day weekend to coordinate travel for a 20-​person bachelor party. The guys went fishing first outside of NOLA, and then came into the city for a weekend of golfing, gambling and nice dinners. Melissa and Lloyd provided EXCEPTIONAL service and were very accommodating and available when flights were delayed and transportation had to be rearranged. Melissa is very knowledgeable about the FBOs in NOLA, and the private jet transportation was seamless, as well. We researched alternative companies in the city to make an informed decision about which company to use, and Riverbend was the most reliable, most cost-​effective and had the nicest vehicles. I would HIGHLY recommend using Riverbend, as we will absolutely use them again the next time we head back to NOLA.
Thank you, Melissa and Lloyd for an amazing weekend!

Amazing service, we hired these guys to pick up some of our clients from the airport, and our client were happy with the service.
Driver was dressed nice, clean car, bottle of water and they will send you a professional confirmation email/​Reminder.
Riverbend Charter is the way to go!
Keep up the great service.

Riverbend Charters is the Bomb-​Diggity! Smooth as silk. Super nice, sleek, black van. Wonderful, charming driver and Melissa is a jewel of a human being. Could not have been happier with the value or experience! Look no further, you’ve found the best! We used these guys for our post wedding transportation.

Very satisfied with the service from Riverbend Charters! The limo was clean and updated and Lloyd was a wonderful chauffeur! It was a perfect way to start our girls weekend in New Orleans!

Fantastic limo service. This is a company that I used almost two dozen times last week for C-​level executives for transport to/​from the airport in New Orleans along with business meetings.
There were compliments and great praises for the cars being clean and the drivers professional, although I was the arranger/​checkbook and wasn’t there in person. Also, working with Lloyd and Melissa was easy and they were really friendly. In addition, I had a long spreadsheet of instructions with a complex itinerary that Lloyd worked through with me. He sent me a PDF confirmation for each service. When we had some last minute changes, they worked with me and said it was no trouble at all.
One of the execs left his wallet in the limo by accident and the driver found it. He was happy to return it to the hotel at no charge for the trip.
Also, they are reasonably priced.
I’ll be using Riverbend again in the future for any limo service we need in NO.

Having recently visited NOLA over Easter weekend, we were looking for something a little more special than just taking a cab to the apartment from the airport. Having never been to NOLA, while booking the pick up and return, Melissa was very helpful and sent us an email with what to see and what to do while visiting. We reserved a stretch limo for the pickup and a sedan for the return to the airport. The pickup driver was waiting for us at the baggage claim area. While making the trip to our weekend getaway, the driver also offered suggestions of some of the must see highlights. During our return to the airport our driver engaged us in conversation on our trip and made sure we had a good time. Both drivers were very professional, courteous. Both vehicles were very clean and comfortable. It’s that extra mile that Riverbend Charters went that will make them my only call when I return to NOLA. I highly recommend them for your NOLA transportation needs.

Excellent, on time service and professionally run. Lloyd and Melissa are the owners and they definitely know how to take care of their customers. I will definitely use them again on my next visit to this beautiful city. Highly recommended.

Hands down the most professional car service in New Orleans. Very highly recommend them.

We had a group of 9 for a birthday weekend. We rented a 13 passenger van for an airport pickup and an hour city tour. The van was immaculate and roomy. And bonus! Two bottles of champagne were on ice just waiting for us. Nice touch.
Lloyd took us to some really cool spots … including a historic cemetery that was incredible. I cannot say enough about how awesome Lloyd was to our group. He was very accommodating and knowledgeable about everything New Orleans. He even took us to a drive thru daiquiri shop. Quite a unique experience.
The rate was extremely reasonable and I will be using Riverbend for my next trip to NOLA.
Thank you, Riverbend Charters for kicking off our weekend in such a fun way.

We received excellent service from Riverbend. I highly recommend them. We hired them to give a customized tour and they attended to every detail, listed to our needs and came through. Their driver was professional and friendly. He went above and beyond to make sure our trip was a success. Lloyd and Melissa were accessible and helpful throughout. I can’t thank them enough!

We utilized Riverbend on our trip to New Orleans for transport to and from MSY, including a late (11 pm) pickup. The service was fantastic and professional in every way.

Very professional! Melissa was wonderful and helped us with a guest artist we had in town for VooDoo Fest. Could not have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended! They will be my go-​to for all New Orleans bookings (we are based in SF).

We could not have been happier with the Stretch limo service that was provided for our daughter’s wedding.
Lloyd, the driver was prompt and extremely courteous. We arrived perfectly on time at the church.
The limo was spotless.
We will definitely be using Riverbend Tours in the future.

Great experience all the way around. Melissa and Lloyd were so helpful as we were planning a trip from out of town to go from New Orleans up to Baton Rouge on gameday. Our driver Bruce was professional and polite and kept the vehicle impeccably clean. I’d recommend to everyone.

We used this limo service for our wedding on 5÷29÷15. We chose the cheapest option, Town car to take us from the venue back to the hotel. They ended up sending us a stretch limo with liquor included on the ride back. Awesome experience! Thank you Riverbend.

Lloyd is the best! Great way to end my trip. Rather than just dropping me off at the airport which is what I expected, he took time to show me all the sites on the back roads and give me an interesting history lesson Super professional and accommodating. On time and can’t wait to use him again!

to all citizens and viewers. a not so honest post was posted about our company, (riverbend charters) an incident giving us bad feedback. but i can assure you, we are great at what we do. we take care of all our customers like family. and i do mean all. i’m not gonna call out any names. i was indeed the driver at that time. the client was very disrespectful towards the owner. and even after that, he was still offered the opportunity to fix what should have never been a problem from the start. but at the end of the day, our reviews speak for themselves.

When we needed to find event transportation I contacted several limo providers in New Orleans and compared rates. We booked two different companies for different events and Riverbend Charters is the BEST.
Lloyd was our driver and he did a fantastic job. He was even available to pick us up earlier than planned. Melissa was great to work with for the booking process.
Their rates are VERY competitive and included all fees and tip. They are now my #1 go to limo service in New Orleans.
The stretch limo was very nice and in great condition.

Absolutely deserve 5 stars! Picked us up coming and going from airport both drivers were very professional, perfect manners. We felt fully taken care of and car was clean clean clean!

My husband and I just got home from a week in NOLA and from the time I talked to Lloyd on the phone to the thank you message from Melissa when we got home, the process was wonderful.
I needed to book transportation from the airport to the hotel and wanted to surprise my husband with a limo ride. He has never been in one and you only live once right, LIVE IT UP!
After a sketchy flight and not knowing if we were going to be able to land in NOLA as we were almost diverted to Houston, my husband was a nervous wreck! When we finally arrived at the airport Lloyd was there to pick us up. Hubby was surprised with the stretch limo, bottle of champagne and a quick trip around the city before heading to the hotel. It was fabulous!
We also utilized their services for the return trip to the airport. It was so relaxing knowing we didn’t have to hail a taxi, load ourselves and a bunch of other people into a shuttle and the conversation was awesome. Unfortunately I can’t remember our return drivers name but he had us engaged the whole way back to the airport. HE ROCKED!
When we return to NOLA (And we plan to return over and over and over) I will definitely call upon the services of Riverbend Charters.

We were in town for the weekend and calling Lloyd was one of the best decisions for transportation. I found him on Unilocal,and we had 12 people arriving at the same time and we requested a limo pickup. Lloyd was not there but Mike was and he was holding an ipad with our party name on it! Loved that — it felt executive level of service and they dress up as well. Lloyd’s quote was the best of all the other companies I called and trust me, I must have called well over 10 – 15 companies. My friends have been to NOLA before, they recommended a different company for $ 100 more– that didn’t make sense. Lloyd was professional from the minute we spoke on the phone, he emailed a confirmation of the pickup. The dropoff was a different price as we had just 9 people leaving, but also a limo and that was Lloyd himself. The only thing I noticed was there were drinks in the limo on the way back to the airport which we couldn’t really enjoy since TSA makes you throw everything away, and when we arrived, the drinks weren’t stocked in the limo so that was weird. I would have preferred to have some refreshments in the limo going to the hotel, and not any on the way to the airport. but no big deal at all. I really loved the fact that we rolled off our plane and Mike was there in a black suit white shirt and everyone else on our plane lined up for the taxi desk. Highly recommend Riverbend charters!

Lloyd was the BEST! He picked us up from the airport right on time and was very kind and courteous. He went out of his way to make our ride amazing and suggested some excellent places to visit while in town.
When he came to pick us up after the epic weekend we had, he brought us the LIMO! Best driver/​car service I have ever experienced. I know exactly who to call next time I am in town.

Our decision to use Riverbend Charters to transport the groom’s family to various venues in New Orleans was the very best decision we made for our son’s March 2014 wedding! We had family members who flew in from California to the Carolinas and everywhere in between, and Riverbend made sure that all of them arrived and departed seamlessly without our having to worry about a thing.
All of the guests on our side thanked us over and over again for providing the mini busses for them during this event, and told us that the drivers actually provided entertaining guided tours of the areas they were passing through on the way to rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception, all of which were held in different parts of town. It saved them from having to rent cars, and I can tell you from our multiple trips to New Orleans that it is not an easy town to navigate or learn quickly! Had we not hired Riverbend, we very well might have been sitting in a church pew with multiple calls coming to us about people being lost. Some in the family even chose to use Riverbend for their airport transportation, given that they were already a known entity.
If you are planning any sort of group event, this is the best gift that you can give yourself for peace of mind!

Lloyd had a no show at the airport and picked up me and my two friends. He gave us his credentials right away so we felt safe and he carried our luggage to his car. His car was incredibly clean, stocked with free water and gum and all kinds of different phone chargers. He took us to our hotel, giving us great suggestions for food and music on the way. After he dropped us off we realized we were at the wrong hotel (our fault, not his). Lloyd came back and took us to the correct hotel at no extra charge. We used him for our return to the airport as well. He was very prompt (15 minutes early even!) and helped a member of our party who had injured himself by getting a wheelchair at the airport for us. He was knowledgable, friendly, and his car was clean with plenty of luggage room and amenities. Definitely use Lloyd at riverbend for your New Orleans travel needs!

Great service! Helped greatly when we had an injured friend we had to get through the airport. Highly recommend.

My buddy and I were passing threw New Orleans and wanted a more personalized tour of the city and its history, not just some standard bus ride. Loydd was recommended and boy r we glad we took it. Very knowledgeable and very personable.
Highly recommend!
