Driving the American dream forward

Founder’s Story: Robert Vaughan, BEST-VIP Chauffeured Worldwide

My career in transportation began in my teens in Orange County, working alongside my father at BEST Towing and his 76 gas station. I learned the business from the ground up—pumping gas, performing oil changes, managing late-night dispatch, and participating in marketing strategy—experiences that shaped my approach to leadership, operations, and client service.

During that period, while residing above the BEST Towing office, I collaborated closely with my father and with Todd Szilagyi, our Chief Operating Officer, to define a long-term vision. From that work, we founded BEST-VIP Chauffeured Worldwide with a clear mandate: to build a purpose-driven organization where people can thrive and consistently deliver exceptional service.

We began as a single-vehicle limousine operation. Through focused investment and disciplined growth, we expanded into retail, group, and corporate transportation and assembled a premium fleet. Strategic acquisitions and a robust global affiliate network now enable us to serve clients seamlessly around the world.

Our operating philosophy places the client at the center. “BEST” is not merely our name; it is the performance standard we apply to every interaction. We provide reliable, safe, and refined travel experiences. The tenure of many clients and chauffeurs since our earliest days reflects our commitment to quality, safety, and trust.

For those new to BEST-VIP, I welcome the opportunity to earn your business. Our team is dedicated to exceeding expectations on every journey.

  • OMG, Fantastic. Spartan and Tops both sent me a note thanking us for the car service. They both commented on how nice the drivers were and that they pointed out points of interest on the ride. My drivers for my Customer Dinners were very good as well. Very professional and friendly. Great job on selecting BEST-VIP Car Service. Thank you, the car service put us over the top in terms of taking care of our Customers.

  • Thanks for providing such professional services for our Toyota New Zealand Group in Southern California this month. Outstanding service and the best drivers I have ever worked with..

  • Our program was a huge success and the ground transportation service was excellent. It was so nice to have such helpful and attentive staff when I would call dispatch with updates and questions at any hours of the day and night. It was also helpful having real-time, up-to-date manifest information at my fingertips with your mobile app! That will now serve as one of my main questions when researching other partners in other locations. Loved that! Your service was top notch and it made the ever changing and often stressful task of managing attendee transportation all that much more manageable. You all gave me the confidence I knowing that all the attendees would be taken care of!
