Recently hired Barr Transportation for a team outing to an Orioles game, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Our driver, Oscar, was friendly, professional, and communicated clearly throughout the trip. The bus arrived on time for both pickup and drop-off, and it was well-maintained. We truly appreciated the safe and reliable transportation and would gladly use Barr Transportation again. Thank you, Oscar, for a great experience!Posted on Google![]()

Working with Barr Transportation has been an amazing experience! In every aspect of coordination prior to our trips, the admin team has been so responsive and kind. During our trips, the bus drivers are extremely helpful and compassionate to our students. After our first field trip, as the students reflected in their journals, I noticed that the highlight (of the entire field trip!!) for most of the children was the bus ride and our super friendly bus driver! We, at Indigo Montessori, highly recommend Barr Transportation and look forward to working with them throughout the years!Posted on Google![]()

Unfortunately, we had a less than satisfactory experience when hiring Barr Transportation for our wedding. The driver of the bus was given a schedule which they did not follow and when our wedding coordinator tried to get the driver to follow the agreed upon plan, they refused. This left me, my husband, several members of our bridal party, and family stranded at our wedding venue on our wedding night. We left guests waiting for over an hour at the after party because the Barr bus driver left without us and we had to find alternate transportation. To say this ruined our night would be an understatement. When trying to come to a solution we were told Barr is “not liable” due to some tricky wording in their terms and conditions. Mistakes happen, but this was handled extremely poorly. We suggest looking elsewhere for transportation needs.Posted on Wedding Wire![]()

Barr Transportation provided excellent service today for Mount Zion Baptist Christian School field trip. Our driver, Ms. Rita, arrived on time and was very courteous and professional. We arrived at our destination on time and returned to our school on time. The bus was clean and our ride was enjoyable.Posted on The Knot![]()

After shopping around quite a bit for our wedding day transportation, we found Barr Transportation, and it was clear they were the right choice for us. They were very fast to give us a quote, easily understood the route we had planned, and were even the most reasonably priced. On the day of the wedding, Barr was punctual and reliable, which helped put my mind at ease. When I mistakenly thought there was an issue with a stop, I called their team, and they were quick to respond, helping me resolve my concerns. Turns out, there wasn’t any issue at all—just me having a bridezilla moment! I can't recommend Barr Transportation highly enough! Their professionalism and excellent service made a world of difference on our special day.Posted on Wedding Wire![]()

Great to work with Barr Transportation provided shuttle service on the day of our wedding for our guests to get back and forth from their hotel. They were responsive to our outreach and followed the events’ timelines perfectly. They drove safely and provided clean, reliable vehicles. We are very pleased with our experience with them. They made sure each of our guests made it back safe after a fun night!
