Great experience with Emelx! It was easy to order the vehicle we needed. Arrived on time.

Amazing service
They picked me up curbside at LAX in a fresh and clean SUV, not just on time but early.
Excellent driving and knowing I had a round-trip ride after exhausting international travel was a relief.
Pricing is reasonable and exceptional. Thank you so much for a beautiful experience. This fantastic company gives back to the community and people in need.

Excellent, professional service
On-time airport pickup, professional and courteous driver, and cleaned the vehicle. The driver handled luggage from the bag claim to the car.
Thanks to everyone at Emelx for their excellent customer support, and I will call again to schedule my next trip!
