American Stretch Limousine Hire in the Paris 13th Arrondissement

The 13th arrondissement sits on the Left Bank in the southeast corner of Paris, postcode 75013. It runs from the Seine and the glass towers of the Bibliothèque François Mitterrand down to the ring road at Porte d'Italie, Porte de Choisy and Porte d'Ivry. If you are visiting the city, working here for a spell, or living in one of the riverside towers along Paris Rive Gauche, My Limousine Paris brings an American stretch limousine and a professional chauffeur to your door anywhere in the district.

Our chauffeur meets you at the exact address you give us: a hotel near Place d'Italie, an apartment above the Butte-aux-Cailles, a restaurant on Avenue de Choisy in Chinatown, or an office in the Rive Gauche business quarter by Station F. There is nothing to organise on arrival. The car is stocked, the route is planned, and everything is settled in advance on a single quote.

A limousine service built around the 13th and its streets

The 13th is a district of contrasts, and a chauffeur who knows it makes the difference. The wide boulevards work well for a long vehicle: Boulevard Auguste-Blanqui, Avenue d'Italie, the Quai d'Austerlitz along the river, and the open esplanade in front of the national library all give a stretch limousine room to pull in cleanly. Place d'Italie, the main roundabout at the centre of the arrondissement, is a natural meeting point but stays busy through the day, so our drivers time pickups to avoid the worst of it.

The one honest caveat concerns the Butte-aux-Cailles. This old village on the hill, with its cobbled lanes, two-storey houses and narrow one-way streets around Rue de la Butte-aux-Cailles, is charming on foot and awkward for a vehicle the length of a Lincoln stretch. Rather than force a limousine into a lane it cannot turn in, we agree a pickup point on a wider street nearby, then walk the short distance. It is a small adjustment that keeps the evening smooth and the car where it belongs.

Our American vehicles

• Lincoln Town Car stretch — the classic long American limousine, leather seating, mood lighting and a divider, ideal for couples and small groups.
• Lincoln Navigator stretch — a larger SUV limousine with more headroom and seats for a bigger party.
• Hummer H2 stretch — the head-turner for hen and stag nights, birthdays and proms.
• Chrysler 300C stretch — sleek lines and a refined cabin, a favourite for weddings.
• Mercedes V-Class van — the discreet, comfortable choice for airport runs and corporate groups with luggage.

Chilled champagne is on board, and every booking is all-inclusive. Prices are given on quote, matched to your vehicle, the number of hours and the distance.

Occasions we cover in the 13th

Weddings

Couples marrying in the 13th say their civil vows at the Mairie du 13e on Place d'Italie, a handsome town hall facing the roundabout. We collect you and your family from home, hold the car through the ceremony, and drive on to the reception, the photo session or a dinner across the river. The chauffeur handles the schedule so you never have to watch the clock.

Nights out and Paris by night

The 13th has become one of the liveliest corners of the city after dark. The Docks, home to the Cité de la Mode et du Design on the Quai d'Austerlitz, draws crowds to its riverside terraces, and the MK2 Bibliothèque cinema complex sits just beside the library. From here the illuminated bridges, Notre-Dame and the Left Bank are minutes away by limousine, champagne poured while your chauffeur takes the scenic route.

Birthdays, hen and stag parties, proms

For a birthday or a hen or stag celebration, the Hummer H2 or the Navigator turns the journey itself into the event. Students from the universities around the arrondissement, including the Paris Rive Gauche campus, book our cars for graduation balls and proms. Tell us the addresses and the timing; we build the run around them.

Corporate travel

The Rive Gauche district has grown into a genuine business hub, with the Station F startup campus and the offices lining the new avenues near the François Mitterrand library. For client roadshows, conference transfers or executive pickups, the Mercedes V-Class and the Chrysler 300C offer quiet, professional travel with a chauffeur who understands discretion.

Airport transfers: Orly and CDG

The 13th is one of the better-placed arrondissements for the airports. Orly sits just to the south, reached in roughly twenty-five to forty minutes depending on traffic, straight down through Porte d'Italie and the A6. Charles de Gaulle, north of the city, is usually a forty-five to sixty-minute drive. Your chauffeur tracks your flight, waits at no extra charge if you are delayed, and helps with the luggage. For arrivals, we meet you inside the terminal and bring you back to your address in the 13th with the champagne on ice if the occasion calls for it. The V-Class is the practical pick when suitcases are involved; the stretch limousines are there when you want to arrive in style.

Getting around the district

Whatever brings you here, we know how the 13th moves. Gare d'Austerlitz, the main-line station on the northern edge, connects the arrondissement to the southwest of France and we handle station transfers to and from it. The RER C and Metro line 14 reach the Bibliothèque François Mitterrand, and lines 5, 6 and 7 converge on Place d'Italie, but a private car with a chauffeur spares you the changes and the stairs, and takes you door to door.

From the Manufacture des Gobelins and its tapestry workshops to the vast Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital campus, from the Asian restaurants of the Quartier Asiatique to the bookshop-lined esplanade of the national library, the 13th rewards visitors who take the time to explore it. Let us do the driving.
