Seat Sherpa Carpool

Seat Sherpa is long-distance rideshare for California and Nevada: Bay Area to Los Angeles, LA to Las Vegas, San Diego, Sacramento and the drives in between. Find a driver already making the trip, book an open seat, and split the cost of gas.

It’s carpooling done right — friendlier than a bus, cheaper than flying, greener than driving alone.

HOW IT WORKS
Drivers post trips they're taking anyway across California and Nevada: SF Bay Area, Los Angeles, San Diego, Sacramento, Fresno, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, Palm Springs, Lake Tahoe and Las Vegas. You pick a seat, pay securely, and agree on a pickup spot in chat. At pickup you read the driver your 4-digit code. That starts the trip and releases the payment.

SAFETY FIRST
Every driver verifies a phone number, uploads a driver's license and confirms identity through Stripe. Riders see the driver's photo, trip count and reviews before booking, can filter for women drivers, and can block anyone. Cancel free up to 24 hours before departure. If the driver cancels, you get 100% back.

DRIVING ANYWAY?
Post your trip in two minutes and riders cover a share of your gas. Deposits go straight to your bank. Rental cars welcome.

Seat Sherpa is cost-sharing carpooling, not ride-hailing. Book in the app or in your browser at seatsherpa.app.
