Every number below is computed from the same rate card the booking widget uses, framed as all-in, and rounded to the nearest $10. The table shows the other pickup and drop-off pairs people ask about.
| Route | Business Sedan | First Class SUV | Sprinter Van | Distance · timing |

All-in estimates, with gratuity, tax & card processing included, rounded to the nearest $10. Tolls or special access fees, if any, are confirmed at booking. Mercedes S-Class is available on request.
Miles are road distances from a routing engine and times are free-flow minimums. Traffic, weather and event congestion add to them, and final confirmation accounts for your exact addresses and stops.
Can you do Atlanta to Augusta and back in one day?
Yes, and it is the format most Masters day-trippers choose. A same-day return is roughly 300 miles of driving, which is about six hours behind the wheel before any traffic. An hourly booking keeps the chauffeur and vehicle with you for the whole block, so the car waits in Augusta instead of returning to Atlanta empty. You are billed for the block, not for each leg.
The hours you buy decide how long you stay. At 8 hours, driving takes most of the day and leaves a short window on the ground, which suits a business meeting or a hospital appointment. At 10 hours you get a few hours in Augusta. At 12 hours the time on the ground is closer to half the day. Leave Atlanta early, because the return leg is when I-20 traffic is hardest to predict.
| Hourly day | Business Sedan | First Class SUV | Sprinter Van | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 hours | $950 | $1,160 | $1,880 | a business or medical appointment |
| 10 hours | $1,190 | $1,460 | $2,360 | a half day on the ground |
| 12 hours | $1,430 | $1,750 | $2,830 | a full Masters day |
Hourly rates are $120/hr for the Business Sedan, $150/hr for the First Class SUV and $240/hr for the Sprinter Van, with a 3-hour minimum. All-in estimates, with gratuity, tax & card processing included, rounded to the nearest $10.
One-way or hourly: which should you book?
The Augusta to Atlanta car service return is simply the second half of an hourly day, or a separate booking if you went one way first. Book one-way if you are staying overnight in Augusta, Lake Oconee or Aiken and do not need the car again until you head home. Book hourly if you are returning to Atlanta the same day, because the car stays with you. If you are staying a few nights and want transfers at both ends plus local runs, tell us the dates when you call and we will quote the legs together. We do not publish multi-day rates because they depend on how many local runs you want.
What should you know about getting to the Masters from Atlanta?
Published schedules put the 2027 Masters tournament rounds on Thursday, April 8 through Sunday, April 11, with practice days earlier in the week beginning Monday, April 5. Check masters.com for the final dates and your own badge conditions. Detailed Drivers does not sell tickets, badges or hospitality packages. We handle the ground transfer from Atlanta and nothing else about the tournament. That makes this Atlanta to Masters transportation in the narrow sense of the drive, with the ticket and the schedule on your side.
The tournament runs its own traffic plan around Augusta National on Washington Road. The 2025 patron parking map published on masters.com routes arrivals from I-20 East through Exits 195 and 196 (Wheeler Road) or Exit 200 (Alexander Drive), marks a taxi lot, a rideshare lot and a pedestrian route to the entry gates, and warns that temporary turn restrictions and road closures apply during the tournament. It also marks a left turn onto Berckmans Road as prohibited in the morning. The map does not name a separate hired-car or limousine lot, and the 2027 plan may differ.
What that means for you: your chauffeur follows the posted plan for the current year, and we confirm the exact drop-off and pickup point with you closer to the date rather than guess it now. Agree a pickup window and a phone number for your party before you walk in, because cell signal and crowds make it hard to improvise afterward.
Leave Atlanta early
Build a buffer for I-20 and for the final approach to Washington Road. Our chauffeurs plan the departure backward from your target arrival, not forward from a free-flow estimate.
Decide the return before you leave
The return window is the hard part of a Masters day. Fix a pickup time, keep a margin, and accept that the last leg home will run longer than the morning drive.
Stay-overs change the math
If you sleep in Augusta, Lake Oconee or Aiken, a one-way transfer is simpler than an hourly day. You skip the long return on tournament evening.
Book early for April
Masters week is the busiest stretch for this route. Vehicles are reserved in advance, so lock in the date once your plans are firm.
For the full planning picture, read our Masters Tournament transportation guide. Corporate hosts coordinating guests can use the Masters corporate hospitality transportation guide.
Is a car service better than Uber, a taxi, a flight or driving yourself to Augusta?
| Option | What it means on the Atlanta to Augusta run | Best fit |
|---|---|---|
| Detailed Drivers | Reserved chauffeur, confirmed vehicle, ATL flight tracking, set engine price, no surge, and the option of a car that waits all day. | Masters visitors, executives, families, groups. |
| Uber Black | On-demand, and a 149-mile intercity ride is a long request for a driver to accept. Availability is uncertain, and the return from Augusta is not something you can reserve in advance. | Short rides inside one city. |
| Taxi | Not practical for an intercity run of this length, and there is no reserved return. | Short local trips. |
| Flight or bus | A flight to Augusta Regional or an intercity bus adds airport or station time on both ends, plus a ground leg at the other side. | Solo travelers with no luggage and fixed schedules. |
| Driving yourself | About three hours each way on I-20, then tournament traffic and parking logistics in Augusta, with nobody left to relax on the ride home. | Travelers who know the route and want to drive. |
Where else does the Atlanta to Augusta route go?
Atlanta to Augusta Regional Airport (AGS)
The airport is about 156 miles from Hartsfield-Jackson, $990 in the Business Sedan and $1,230 in the First Class SUV. People use it when a flight arrives in Atlanta and the final destination is Augusta, or when a group is leaving Augusta on a different itinerary than the one they arrived on. The booking starts in Atlanta, because we run this as a transfer from Atlanta rather than a local Augusta pickup.
Atlanta to Lake Oconee for a Masters stay-over
The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds, Lake Oconee is at 1 Lake Oconee Trail in Greensboro, about 88 miles from ATL, $610 in the Business Sedan and $760 in the First Class SUV. It is closer to Atlanta than to Augusta National, so guests who stay there add a second drive east on tournament days. We can quote that second leg together with the Atlanta transfer.
Atlanta to Aiken, South Carolina
Downtown Aiken is about 172 miles from ATL via I-20 East, $1,070 in the Business Sedan and $1,340 in the First Class SUV. The route crosses into South Carolina near Augusta, so the same drive serves Masters visitors staying across the state line and travelers heading to the Aiken area for other reasons.
Other long-distance routes from Atlanta
Chauffeured intercity work is a regular format for us out of Atlanta. If your trip points north instead, see the Atlanta to Nashville route or the Atlanta to Charlotte route.
Why else do people ride from Atlanta to Augusta?
The Masters is the best-known reason, but Augusta is a regional hub, and the interstate between the two cities carries steady year-round traffic. These are the trip types we expect from the corridor, based on what Augusta is known for.
Hospital and university visits
Augusta University and the Medical College of Georgia draw patients, families and visiting faculty from Atlanta. A reserved car with a waiting chauffeur makes a day of appointments simpler than a three-hour drive and a parking search.
Military and family travel
Fort Gordon sits just outside Augusta. Families traveling for ceremonies or visits can book the First Class SUV or the Sprinter Van and travel together instead of splitting across cars.
Corporate and site travel
The Savannah River Site, near Aiken, and other employers in the Augusta area generate business travel from Atlanta. Executives can use the ride to work, and companies can bill it through a corporate travel account in Atlanta.
Weekend and celebration trips
Golf weekends, family reunions and milestone birthdays work well as one-way transfers with a return a few days later. Tell us the dates and the group size and we will pick the vehicle.
How do groups get from Atlanta to Augusta?
A Sprinter Van carries up to 14 passengers and 12 bags. A one-way run from ATL to Augusta National is $1,850, and an 8-hour group day is $1,880. A full van means one arrival time and one pickup time for the whole group.
Use the First Class SUV for parties of four to six, with 6 bags. It is $1,180 one way from ATL to Augusta National. Use the Business Sedan for one to three passengers, $950 one way. A single sedan for two people is sensible, and a Sprinter for two is not, so we will tell you if you are booking more vehicle than you need.
If your party is larger than 14, we coordinate more than one vehicle with synchronized departure times. Read the Sprinter van rental in Atlanta page for the vehicle details, then call (888) 420-0177 with the headcount.
How do you book the Atlanta to Augusta transfer?
1. Reserve
Use online reservations or call (888) 420-0177 with the Atlanta pickup, the Augusta destination, the date and the time you need to arrive.
2. Choose a format
One-way for an overnight stay, or an hourly day of 8, 10 or 12 hours for a same-day return with the car waiting.
3. Confirm
You receive the vehicle, the departure window and a chauffeur contact. For Masters week, we confirm the drop-off and pickup plan for that year closer to the date.
4. Ride
The chauffeur meets you at the pickup point, tracks your flight if you are arriving at ATL, and drives I-20 East. We are a reserved service, not an on-demand app, so advance booking is required.
When should you book?
Book as soon as your dates are firm, and especially for Masters week in April. Vehicles are confirmed in advance, and a Sprinter Van is the first thing to go when a group is planning around a single weekend. Outside April, a few days is usually enough, though earlier is safer for the Sprinter Van and for early-morning departures.

A one-way transfer from ATL Hartsfield-Jackson to Augusta National is $950 in the Business Sedan, $1,180 in the First Class SUV and $1,850 in the Sprinter Van (up to 14 passengers).

Tolls or special access fees, if any, are confirmed at booking.
The route is about 149 miles, almost all of it on I-20 East, and the free-flow drive is about three hours. Atlanta rush hour on the I-20 and I-285 side of town, a crash on the interstate, or Masters-week congestion near Washington Road will add to that, so we plan the departure with a buffer rather than quoting a promise.
Yes, as an hourly day with the same chauffeur and vehicle waiting. The round trip is roughly 300 miles of driving, which is about six hours behind the wheel before traffic. An 8-hour day is $950 in the Business Sedan and $1,160 in the First Class SUV, a 10-hour day is $1,190 and $1,460, and a 12-hour day is $1,430 and $1,750.

The tournament controls access around Augusta National and posts a traffic and parking plan each year. The 2025 patron parking map on masters.com shows a taxi lot, a rideshare lot and a pedestrian route to the entry gates, and it warns of temporary turn restrictions and road closures during the tournament. It does not name a separate hired-car lot. Your chauffeur follows the posted plan for the current year, and we confirm the drop-off and pickup point with you closer to the date.
We can run Atlanta to Augusta Regional Airport (AGS), about 156 miles, at $990 in the Business Sedan and $1,230 in the First Class SUV. This is a transfer that starts in Atlanta. We do not keep vehicles or staff in Augusta, so a pickup in Augusta is booked as the return leg of an Atlanta trip.
