A car and driver for the full day in Auckland — discreet, professional, prepared

A full-day car and driver in Auckland means a chauffeur employed by us, a Mercedes booked by name, and a fixed price agreed before you confirm. The vehicle you reserve—Sedan, SUV, or Mini-Coach—is the one that arrives, driven by someone we've trained and who answers to us, not an app. It's how chauffeur.co.nz has worked since 2002.

What does a full-day booking actually include?

You have the vehicle and chauffeur at your disposal for the day—meetings across the city, a run out to the Waitākeres or Waiheke ferry, airport pickups between appointments, or simply being on hand when you need to move. The driver waits between stops, manages timing, and adjusts the route as your day unfolds.

Which vehicle should I book for a day in Auckland?

The Mercedes E-Class Sedan suits one or two passengers with standard luggage. The V-Class SUV carries up to four passengers and four suitcases plus carry-ons, useful if you're moving between hotels, offices, and Auckland Airport. The Sprinter Mini-Coach handles groups of up to ten with full luggage.

How does pricing work for a full day?

You'll see a single, GST-inclusive figure when you visit /book—no meter, no surge, no surprises. The price covers the vehicle, the chauffeur's time, and the day's driving within Auckland. Because it's fixed in advance, you know exactly what you're committing to before you confirm.

Who actually drives?

A chauffeur we employ directly. They're trained by us, wear our livery, and remain accountable to us throughout your booking. They're not app contractors who can decline or cancel; if you've booked the day, the driver is assigned and committed.

Can the itinerary change during the day?

Yes. Let the chauffeur know if a meeting finishes early, a lunch venue shifts from Viaduct Harbour to Parnell, or you need an unplanned stop at Auckland Airport. The day is yours; the driver adapts to keep you on schedule and comfortable.


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.
