New York to Montauk is the longest of the Hamptons runs — 120 miles all the way to "The End" of Long Island — and the one most worth handing to a chauffeur. After the LIE and Route 27, the last stretch to Montauk is a beautiful drive best enjoyed from the back seat.
The route and the timing
The path is the LIE (I-495) east to Sunrise Highway, Route 27, straight to the harbor and the lighthouse. Summer Fridays eastbound are the slow window; plan 2h 45m to 3h 45m depending on the day and time. The broader Hamptons run shares the same corridor through the villages to the west.
Montauk trips pair with our wine tour and event services, and many start with a flight met at JFK. The Cadillac Escalade and Suburban handle the luggage; groups take a Sprinter van.
Comfort for the whole distance.
