When business brings you to Christchurch, a dedicated car and driver means you control the day's rhythm without watching the clock or hailing rides between meetings. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has provided employed chauffeurs and a Mercedes fleet—E-Class sedans, V-Class SUVs, and Sprinter mini-coaches—with fixed, GST-inclusive pricing confirmed before you book.
How does booking a car and driver for the full day work in Christchurch?
You book the hours you need through /book, nominate your first pick-up point and time, then direct your chauffeur as the day unfolds—between the CBD, Riccarton offices, the airport, or client sites across the city. The vehicle you reserve is the one that arrives, and the same chauffeur stays with you for the duration.
What vehicles are available for executive travel in Christchurch?
The fleet includes the Mercedes E-Class sedan for up to two passengers with two large cases and two carry-ons, the V-Class for up to four passengers with four cases, and the Sprinter mini-coach for groups of up to ten. Every vehicle is confirmed at booking—no substitutions.
Is pricing metered or does it change during the day?
All pricing is fixed and GST-inclusive, quoted in full before you confirm. There's no meter running, no surge, and no surprises regardless of traffic or timing. Visit /book to see the exact cost for your itinerary and hours required.
Who drives, and can they decline a job once booked?
Your chauffeur is employed directly by chauffeur.co.nz—trained in-house and accountable to the company, not an app contractor free to cancel. That means reliability for early airport runs, tight schedules between Christchurch Airport and the central city, or back-to-back appointments across town.
Can I change the itinerary once the day is underway?
Yes. You direct your chauffeur in real time—add a stop in Merivale, shift a meeting location, or extend the booking if your schedule runs over. The fixed-rate structure and dedicated driver give you that flexibility without renegotiating fares mid-trip.
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.
