Rider reviews

"I've been doing Hitch since November 22. It's a easy no nonsense way to do rideshare. The team is always there if you need anything."

H Dean

"I have had an excellent experience so far with Hitch! Drivers are always on time if not early, all the rides I have taken have been fun and relaxing so far. Hitch is excellent for anyone looking forward to saving money on long distance trips and is a great alternative to buses that do not always provide the best of experiences!"

Metolo F

"I have been using Hitch for the past 1.5 year and I'm totally loving the service. Its very affordable to go around different cities and the drivers are also friebdly. I recommend Hitch to anyone who is looking for a safe, affordable ride."

Bansari K

"Cheapest way I know to ride between cities in Texas. The pickup is on scheduled times and there are options to ride share. It's not the app if you immediately need to travel but if you plan ahead it's the best option available. Highly recommended. The app is also easy to use and I've never had a problem with drivers being late, in fact they've been early a few times."
