Dispatcher didn’t relay the right drop…
Dispatcher didn’t relay the right drop off location at the site. The driver didn’t listen to our guide. It was a disaster! I know this isn’t a real review and its a paid service by fist student, I’ll leave my real review on google! Thanks.

I apologize for your experience and assure you this is not typical. We pride ourselves on our drivers. My name is Tammy and I run the Charter Center responsible for the Eastern US. Will you please call me at 732-280-4927 or email me at tammy.ward@firstgroup.com? I want to understand more about your experience so I can take any necessary corrective action, and work to make your situation right. Thanks, Tammy
Excellent Short Distance Shuttle Bus Service!
After two poor experiences with a different bus company, First Charter did a fantastic job, had great communication and helped our race event to be a success! We didn't even have to think about our shuttle bus service during our event. Friendly and professional drivers and great customer support.
