A chauffeur meets you inside Auckland Airport's arrivals hall, holding your name, then drives you directly to your address—on your timeline, no shared ride, no meter running. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has offered fixed-price airport transfers in Mercedes E-Class sedans, V-Class people-movers and Sprinter mini-coaches, with the vehicle you reserve guaranteed to arrive.

Where exactly does the chauffeur meet me at Auckland Airport?

Your driver waits in the arrivals hall landside, past customs and baggage claim, holding a name board. If your flight's delayed or early, the pickup adjusts automatically—flight tracking is standard, and there's no extra charge for waiting within reason.

Which vehicle should I book for my group and luggage?

The Mercedes E-Class sedan suits up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons. The V-Class takes four passengers and four suitcases plus four carry-ons. For larger groups—up to ten passengers with ten checked bags—the Sprinter mini-coach is available, and whichever you book is what arrives.

How does fixed pricing work for an airport transfer?

You see the full GST-inclusive price before you confirm the booking—no surge multipliers, no meter, no surprises if traffic is heavy on the Southern or Northwestern motorway. Visit the booking page to get the exact figure for your pickup and destination postcodes.

Who's driving—an app contractor or an employed chauffeur?

Every driver is employed and trained directly by chauffeur.co.nz, not a gig-economy contractor free to decline your job. That means accountability, consistent service, and someone who knows the fastest route from the airport to Ponsonby, Parnell or wherever you're headed.

Can I book a chauffeur for departures as well as arrivals?

Yes. Whether you're leaving from the city, the North Shore or further out in West Auckland, the same fixed-price, flight-tracked service applies. Your chauffeur collects you at your address with enough buffer for check-in, and the vehicle choice—Sedan, V-Class or Sprinter—stays yours to pick.


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.
