Evanston to O'Hare and Midway car service

From Evanston the Loop is nearer than either airport: about 25 minutes without traffic, against about 30 to O'Hare and 40 to Midway. Flights are tracked from the moment we have the number, and the first hour of airport waiting is included.

Northwestern families arriving for move-in or commencement can be met inside the terminal and driven to the Hilton Orrington or straight to campus. An Escalade carries 6 with 6 bags, and a student group with luggage fits in an Executive Sprinter.

Game days, campus events and nights out in Evanston

Northwestern opened its new Ryan Field in 2026, a 35,000-seat stadium on the site of the old one, and Welsh-Ryan Arena just to the north hosts basketball, volleyball and wrestling. A party bus of 35 gets a tailgate group to kickoff and home again without anyone hunting for parking.

Downtown Evanston has the Davis Street stops for Metra and the CTA Purple Line, plus restaurants within walking distance of the Hilton Orrington, a 1923 hotel named for a university co-founder. For a quieter outing, the Grosse Point Lighthouse, finished in 1873, stands on the lake in the north of the city.

Vehicles for Evanston limo service

Party buses, Hummer limos and coaches in Evanston

Evanston Township High School is the only school in District 202, so every Evanston prom group leaves on the same night, which makes an early booking for a party bus or the Hummer worthwhile.

Northwestern football at the new Ryan Field and reunion weekends suit a party bus for a tailgate crew, and a mini coach brings visitors up to Evanston from downtown Chicago, about 25 minutes south.

Can you drive a group to a Northwestern game at Ryan Field?

Yes. We drive Northwestern families between O'Hare or Midway, the Evanston campus and hotels such as the Hilton Orrington, with bags handled by the chauffeur.

Should I take the Purple Line or a car from Evanston to the Loop?

Can you pick up guests at the Hilton Orrington/Evanston?
