Transportation: Winter Park - DIA
Home James Transportation Services
Celebrating their 24th year of service,
Home James is the door-to-door scheduled shuttle
service to and from Denver International Airport and Winter Park. Don’t
worry about driving over unpredictable mountain passes. Leave the
driving to their professional drivers, specially trained in mountain
driving techniques.
Denver International Airport is an easy 87-mile, 2-hour transfer away
(subject to weather conditions), and Home James offers 22 scheduled
departures daily to and from the airport. The Homes James vehicles are
specially suited to transport you, your luggage and equipment to and
from the doorstep of your mountain lodging. Sit back, relax, and enjoy
the scenery go by in style.
Home James also offers private luxury charter service to and from DIA,
other ski resorts, factory outlets stores, downtown Denver and Central
City/Blackhawk casinos. In addition, private charter service to anywhere
in the state of Colorado is available and can be scheduled at any time
day or night. Rates are available online, or call them for individual
quotes.
Colorado Tour Transportation
CTT is a transportation service that specializes in personal transportation services, from picking up passengers at the airport to stopping along the way so its passengers can pick up some needed things along the way. CTT is a charter 4x4 limosine service. It is different from a shuttle service in that it is not a shared ride that
runs at particular times. They will wait at DIA for their passengers,
which means that if a flight is delayed, they are still there for
you. As soon as you have your baggage, you get picked up at the
LIMO Stand -- just steps from the baggage carousels -- so there is no
waiting for the next scheduled shuttle departure.
Please see their home page for contact informaton as well as rates and services.
