Denton to Alvarado Shuttle

Traveling between Denton’s historic downtown and the quiet town of Alvarado? Texas Shuttle offers a private, door‑to‑door shuttle that makes the journey feel like a smooth glide through North Texas. The straight‑line distance between the two points measures about 56 miles, but the road routes add a few extra miles, resulting in a typical drive time of 76 to 105 minutes—perfect for business trips, airport transfers, or weekend getaways.

Our drivers start by picking you up in the neighborhood you choose—whether it’s the campus‑adjacent streets of the University of North Texas, the vibrant Oak Street entertainment district, or the family‑friendly South Lakes area. From there, we head south on I‑35 E, a corridor that threads through the Denton‑Lake Dallas corridor, giving a quick glimpse of the Denton County Courthouse and the historic Denton Square.

After crossing the I‑35E/US‑287 interchange near the Dallas‑Fort Worth Metroplex, the route shifts onto US‑287 South. This highway carries you past the rolling prairie lands of Wise County, through the small community of Lake Dallas, and offers a brief view of the Lake Ray Roberts shoreline before entering the pastoral outskirts of Denton County.

Continuing on US‑287, you’ll pass the bustling Dallas‑Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) perimeter, where many travelers appreciate a timely stop at Terminal A or B. If your itinerary includes a flight, our team monitors the flight status and can adjust the pickup window so you never miss a connection. The final stretch follows FM 1450 into Alvarado, a town renowned for its historic square, the Alvarado Library, and the nearby Tejas County wildlife preserves.

  • Local expertise: Our drivers know every shortcut and the best places to avoid rush‑hour congestion.
  • Comfortable ride: Climate‑controlled vehicles with roomy seating ensure you arrive refreshed.
  • Personal service: From the moment you book until you step off in Alvarado, we handle your luggage and coordinate with any flight updates.

How long does the shuttle take during peak traffic?

During typical rush‑hour periods, the trip can extend toward the upper end of the 105‑minute range. Our drivers use real‑time traffic data to choose the quickest lane, and we keep you informed of any delays as they happen.

Can I be picked up at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport?

Yes. If you’re arriving on a DFW flight, let us know your airline and arrival terminal. We monitor the flight and will adjust the pickup time accordingly, ensuring a smooth transition from the terminal to your destination in Alvarado.

What if I have oversized luggage or a sports equipment case?

Our shuttle vehicles are equipped with ample cargo space, so larger suitcases, golf bags, or even a small mountain bike can be accommodated without issue.

What are the benefits of using our service?

Door to door shuttle service is included on all our trips. Usually trips in Texas are non-stop in a nicer vehicle. Texas Shuttle can pick you up Dallas, or your home anytime 24/7. We normally take you straight there, which is very different from other companies that leave you at a bus stop in Texas, and stop and wait repeatedly. We also don't pack you in with 8-54 people you don't know.

Does it cost anything to change my reservation?

You can change the date and time of your reservation at no cost. If you don't know the exact address, you can enter the city for now and reserve it, then give us the full address later.

Pickup Locations

Your Texas Shuttle picks you up where it says Prearranged at DFW or Ground Transportation at Love Field. If you are in a wheelchair, do not allow your attendant to leave you anywhere except Prearranged at DFW. The signs are easy to see, and they are always at the curb.
Security won't allow drivers to wait or walk more than 15 feet away from their vehicle, so good communication is essential. Turn on your cell phone and take it off airplane mode and silent, so your driver can call or text you. If you don't recognize the number, it's probably your driver.


DFW - Prearranged Limo is located at the lower level of each terminal. Please choose the closest one to your gate and let your driver know when they call or text you.
