Booking a car and driver for the day in Auckland means you set the schedule—whether that's a North Shore lunch, afternoon meetings in Parnell, or a full day moving between appointments and personal stops. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has offered day hire with employed chauffeurs driving Mercedes sedans, SUVs or mini-coaches, priced as a single fixed cost you see in full before you confirm.

How does day hire pricing work?

You pay one fixed, GST-inclusive price for the full day, shown before you book—no meter running, no surge charges, no surprises. The exact cost depends on your vehicle choice and hours needed; visit the booking page to see the number for your specific plan.

Which vehicle should I choose for a day booking?

The Mercedes E-Class sedan suits up to two passengers with two suitcases; the V-Class handles up to four passengers and four bags; the Sprinter mini-coach accommodates up to ten people with matching luggage. The vehicle you book is the one that arrives, every time.

Can I change my itinerary during the day?

Yes—your chauffeur works to your schedule, so if you finish early in Newmarket and want to add a stop in Ponsonby or head out to the airport instead, you adjust as you go. The day is yours to direct, within the booked hours.

Who will be driving?

A chauffeur employed and trained directly by chauffeur.co.nz—not an app contractor who can decline or cancel. They're accountable to us, know Auckland thoroughly, and stay with you for the duration of your booking.

What's typically included in a day hire?

You have the vehicle and chauffeur for the agreed hours, moving between as many Auckland locations as your day requires—business stops in the CBD, personal errands in Remuera, pickups from Auckland Airport, or a mix of all three. The fixed price covers the service; you simply plan the route.


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.
