Galveston to El Campo Shuttle

Check Rates

Texas Shuttle provides private, door-to-door transportation from Galveston to El Campo, covering roughly 85 road miles southwest through the coastal prairie of Brazoria, Matagorda, and Wharton counties. The drive typically takes about an hour and forty-five minutes. Instead of making the trip yourself or gambling on a rural rideshare, you ride in a private sedan or SUV with a professional driver who picks you up at your Galveston address and delivers you directly to your destination in El Campo.

Pickup is available anywhere on Galveston Island, including the historic Strand District, beachfront hotels along Seawall Boulevard, the cruise terminals at Pier 25, and the UTMB medical campus. In El Campo, we drop off at any address you choose, including downtown, the El Campo Regional Medical Center area, and surrounding ranch and farmland communities. Every trip is a direct private route with no shared-ride stops.

The route leaves the island north on Interstate 45, cuts west on State Highway 35 through West Columbia and Bay City, then joins US-59 into El Campo. Travelers use this route for medical appointments, family visits in Wharton County, and business travel to the area's rice and cattle operations, and early-morning or evening departures can be scheduled in either direction, including return trips from El Campo back to Galveston.

For groups and families, the vehicle is matched to your party size and luggage, from sedans for solo travelers to SUVs. Cruise passengers appreciate flat, predictable pricing quoted before the trip with no surge multipliers, and our drivers track ferry and causeway traffic to keep post-cruise pickups on schedule.

How long does the Galveston to El Campo drive take?

The route covers about 85 miles via I-45, TX-35, and US-59, typically an hour and forty-five minutes of driving under normal conditions.

Do you pick up at the Galveston cruise terminals?

Yes. We pick up at the cruise terminals, Seawall hotels, the Strand District, and any address on the island. Drivers monitor your ship's arrival and adjust pickup accordingly.

How much does a shuttle cost to Dallas TX?

It depends on the addresses you enter, if it's in the middle of the night or early morning, and the number of people. Check rates by clicking the buttons that say "Check Rates" below. There are different options under "Select Service" like "To Airport" or "From Airport" and "One Way" or "Round Trip". Choose the option called "Any Two Addresses 24/7" for non-airport transportation between any two addresses in Texas. Rates are total, not per person.

How Do I Get an Accurate Quote?

  • Step 1 - You can just type city and check rates, but we recommend entering the full address to get an accurate quote since we have special rates for certain zip codes and most pricing is mileage based. Once you fill in the addresses, click "View Rates".

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. If you don't know your flight number landing in Dallas, you can estimate the time and update the flight number and time later.

Pickup Locations

Your Texas Shuttle picks you up curbside at IAH or Hobby. For arrivals, head to the ground transportation / passenger pickup area and we'll meet you curbside. If you are in a wheelchair, stay with your attendant until your driver reaches 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.


IAH - George Bush Intercontinental — meet your driver at the lower-level curb of your arrival terminal (Terminal A, B, C, D, or E). Send your terminal letter to your driver when you land.

  • Terminal A / B / C / D / E - Lower Level Curb — exit baggage claim and head to the outer curb; your driver will tell you the exact lane.

Hobby Airport (HOU) - Lower Level Curb is on the lower level outside baggage claim. Head out the door and walk to the outer curb; we'll meet you there.
