How does hourly chauffeur booking work in Auckland?

You reserve a vehicle and driver for a set number of hours, and they remain available for multiple stops or waiting time throughout that period. The clock starts when your chauffeur arrives at your first pickup location, and the fixed price covers the entire booking window with no meter running.

Which vehicle should I book for hourly use around Auckland?

The Mercedes E-Class sedan suits up to two passengers with two large bags, the V-Class handles up to four passengers with four large bags, and the Sprinter mini-coach accommodates up to ten passengers. Each vehicle you book is the exact model that arrives, so capacity is guaranteed.

Can I add stops during my hourly booking in Auckland?

Yes, hourly hire is designed for flexible itineraries across Auckland — whether that's meetings in the CBD, a stop in Parnell, then out to the North Shore. Your chauffeur is employed by us, trained to your schedule, and available for the full duration you've booked.

How do I know the chauffeur will be on time?

Punctuality has been the foundation of the service since 2002, with employed drivers who are accountable directly to chauffeur.co.nz rather than app contractors who can decline jobs. The vehicle is dispatched with buffer time built in, and your chauffeur's phone number is confirmed before pickup.

Where can I see the hourly rate for Auckland?

The complete fixed price — GST-inclusive, with no surge and no meter — is shown in full at /book before you confirm. Rates vary by vehicle type and duration, but you'll always see the exact total before committing to the booking.
