Why Take a Car Service to the Poconos
No Train, No Problem
There is no rail service from NYC to the Poconos. Instead of a bus to a park-and-ride or a rental car, ride door-to-door from your building to the resort lobby.
Built for Family Trips
Child seats installed for $25 each, and an Escalade with room for parents, kids, and all the Kalahari waterpark gear. Everyone arrives happy.
Bachelor & Bachelorette Runs
The whole party in one Mercedes Sprinter — up to 14 guests, custom quoted. No caravans, no designated driver, no one left navigating I-80 at midnight.
Ski Season & Waterpark Summer
Camelback in winter, Kalahari and Great Wolf Lodge year-round. Room for skis, boards, and beach bags — and no tired drive home after a full day.
Professional Chauffeurs
Drivers who run the I-80 corridor every week, in summer traffic and winter weather alike. Sit back while someone who knows the road handles it.
Flat Rate Pricing
One rate, quoted before you book. No surge on holiday weekends, no toll surprises, no meter running at the Delaware Water Gap.
Poconos Resorts We Serve
Waterparks & Family Resorts
The Poconos is NYC's closest big-resort escape — indoor waterparks in winter, outdoor everything in summer, all under two hours from Manhattan.
- Kalahari Resorts — indoor waterpark, Pocono Manor
- Great Wolf Lodge — family waterpark resort, Scotrun
- Camelback Resort — Aquatopia waterpark + mountain
- Door-to-lobby drop-off with all your gear
Mountain & Classic Resorts
From ski slopes to grand lodges, the mountain side of the Poconos runs on its own calendar — ski season roughly December through March, hiking and golf the rest of the year.
- Camelback Mountain — skiing and snow tubing in winter
- Skytop Lodge — classic grand resort, ~2 hrs from NYC
- Mount Pocono and surrounding rental houses
- Any Poconos address — quoted flat at booking
Pro tip: Friday evenings on I-80 West are the slowest window. A morning or early-afternoon departure usually keeps the trip under two hours.

NYC to Poconos FAQs
How much does car service from NYC to the Poconos cost?
Car service from Manhattan to Mount Pocono starts at $485 for a Mercedes E-Class sedan. A Cadillac Escalade SUV starts at $610. Specific resorts — Camelback, Kalahari, Great Wolf Lodge, Skytop Lodge — are quoted flat at booking based on the exact address, and Sprinter Vans for groups are priced on a custom quote.
How long is the drive from NYC to the Poconos?
Manhattan to Mount Pocono is about 92 miles and takes roughly 1.75 hours via I-80 West through New Jersey into Pennsylvania. Camelback and the Kalahari/Great Wolf area are in the same corridor; Skytop Lodge sits a bit further north, closer to 2 hours. Friday evening traffic on I-80 can add time — your chauffeur routes around the worst of it.
Is there a train from NYC to the Poconos?
No. There is no rail service from NYC to the Poconos, so your options are a bus to a park-and-ride, driving yourself, or a private car. We take you door-to-door — from your building in Manhattan to the resort lobby — with no transfers, no rental counter, and no parking.
Do you provide car seats for kids?
Yes. Child seats are available for $25 each — add them during booking and they are installed before pickup. For family trips to Kalahari, Great Wolf Lodge, or Camelback, an Escalade SUV fits parents, kids, and all the waterpark and ski gear comfortably.
Can you handle a bachelor or bachelorette party trip to the Poconos?
That is what the Sprinter is for. Our Mercedes Sprinter Van seats up to 14, so the whole group rides together — no three-car caravans, no designated driver. Sprinter trips are priced on a custom quote: submit your dates and pickup addresses and we confirm a flat rate.
Do you run trips in ski season?
All winter. Camelback and the surrounding mountains draw NYC skiers from December through March, and our chauffeurs drive the I-80 corridor in winter conditions week in, week out. There is room for skis and boards, and you skip driving home tired after a full day on the mountain.
Do you offer round trips to the Poconos?
Yes. Book both legs together and your return pickup is scheduled before you leave — the car is waiting at the resort when checkout comes. For day trips, ask about hourly service so the vehicle stays with you.
