HOSTED FROM THE MOMENT YOU LAND
Derby begins the moment you arrive. Your driver are introduced, not assigned. Even dressed distintively so you can find them easily in a crowd!
Every member of our team is local. Each serves as a brand ambassador for the city, and are personally invested in your experience. Vehicles appear when expected. Traffic patterns, closures, and timing are accounted for in advance. Your schedule remains protected from the unpredictability of Derby Week.
You move through the city with calm assurance. Timing feels intuitive and Movement feels efforless.

STRUCTURED. EFFORTLESS. STILL PERSONAL
Even in group settings, our drivers remain hosts.
Red Rose Express is easy to find and impossible to miss. Find the Red. Built for groups and designed for Derby Week, our team moves with foresight, accounting for traffic patterns, street closures, venue access and timing long before your group ever feels it. Your host understands the rhythm of the city and ensures guests move confidently between stops without confusion or delay.
Professional. Organized. Exceptionally Smooth

STEP BEYOND THE GRANDSTANDS
Derby is more than race day.
These are the moments that transform a Derby trip into a Kentucky experience.
