When you need a car and driver by the hour in Wellington, chauffeur.co.nz delivers punctual service with your choice of Mercedes E-Class, V-Class or Sprinter. Every booking shows a fixed, GST-inclusive rate before you confirm—no surge pricing, no meter running—and the vehicle you reserve is the one that arrives.
How does hourly chauffeur service work in Wellington?
You book online at /book, selecting the vehicle that suits your passenger and luggage count, then specify your pick-up point and the hours you need. Your chauffeur remains at your disposal for the duration, whether you're moving between Thorndon meetings, touring the Miramar Peninsula, or making stops across the city.
Which vehicle should I choose for an hourly booking?
The Mercedes E-Class seats up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons; the V-Class takes four passengers with four suitcases and four carry-ons; the Sprinter accommodates ten passengers with ten suitcases and ten carry-ons. Choose based on your group size and luggage—what you book is what arrives.
What does the fixed price include?
Your quote at /book covers the chauffeur's time, the vehicle, GST, and all standard running costs for the hours you select. There's no meter, no surge multiplier, and the figure shown before you confirm is what you pay.
Are the drivers employed or app contractors?
Every chauffeur is directly employed by chauffeur.co.nz, trained in-house and accountable to the company. They can't decline your job or cancel at the last minute the way app-based contractors sometimes do.
Can I use hourly service for Wellington Airport runs?
Yes, hourly bookings work for any itinerary—whether that's a Wellington Airport transfer followed by city errands, a loop through Kelburn and Oriental Bay, or a full day moving between the waterfront, Weta Workshop in Miramar, and back to your hotel.
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.
