What vehicles are available for hourly bookings in Auckland?

Three Mercedes options are available: the E-Class sedan for up to three passengers and three bags, the V-Class for up to seven passengers and six bags, or the Sprinter mini-coach for groups of up to sixteen.

How does hourly pricing work?

The price is fixed and GST-inclusive for the time you book, with no surge charges or meter running. You’ll see the full cost before confirming your booking at /book, and that price won’t change regardless of traffic on the Harbour Bridge or delays in Parnell.

Can I book a chauffeur for a few hours to run errands?

Yes, hourly bookings suit multiple stops perfectly—whether that’s appointments in Remuera, shopping at Sylvia Park, or collecting visitors from Auckland Airport between commitments. The vehicle and chauffeur stay with you for the duration you’ve booked.

Who will be driving?

You’ll have a chauffeur directly employed and trained by chauffeur.co.nz, not an app contractor. They’re accountable to the company and won’t decline your job or hand it off to someone else.

What’s guaranteed when I book by the hour?

The specific Mercedes vehicle you book—sedan, V-Class, or Sprinter—is the one that will arrive. Your chauffeur remains with you for the entire period, and the price you see at booking is the price you pay.


Fixed prices, NZD, GST-inclusive. No surge, ever. The vehicle you book is the vehicle that arrives, driven by a chauffeur we employ — trained by us and accountable to us, not an app contractor who can decline the job. The chauffeur — since 2002.
