WHAT PEOPLE SAY

We are very glad to have used North Valley Driving School and new owner Greg to drive with our twins in Solano County. Greg is a great instructor, shows up on time, and my kids think he is very nice and calm. I’m very impressed with his customer service and would highly recommend his driving school!

Ryan Y, Dixon CA

My driving instructor was great, he kept me safe, helped me enjoy my hours with encouragement and small talk, this school helped me feel prepared and exited to drive despite my initial nervousness. Thanks NVDS!

Jaden P, Chico CA

My son just finished driving lessons here and they were amazing. Took him driving in the mountains, practiced freeway on/off all the way to Oroville, parallel parking, etc. Best part was he got all of his lessons done in a couple days. Very nice, professional guy.

Kristi V, Chico CA
