The Guru Take
Not with Uber. Limos and Sitbaq can.
With most rideshare services like Uber and Lyft, you cannot specify a driver. This means that once a trip has ended, you have to make another request, and you have no idea who will pick up the fare next.
There are rideshare services like SITBAQ that does allow you to specify the same drivers you like!
UPDATE 2017: Uber now supports multiple destination, where you can enter up to 3 stop locations along the way. This feature it meant to be used to run small errands and pick up additional passengers. They encourage users to make the stops very short, say only 3 minutes at each stop, to be courteous to the drivers.

or you can just ask the driver and pay him off.
Yes, Sitbaq can handle this. There is a few ways currently.
1. If you have a referral code from a driver and you use it to sign up you will have the driver pre-loaded in the app. This way you can request the driver for both rides.
2. Once you take a ride you can request the same driver again. So you can actually take the first ride and then add that driver as a favorite, then request that driver again.
This is the way it works right now. In the future, we will make it easy to book a return ride from the first ride.
