A full-day chauffeur in Christchurch means the vehicle and driver stay with you from morning collection through to your final stop, moving entirely to your schedule. You decide the route—whether that's meetings across the city, a run out to Akaroa, or simply having transport on standby while you work through appointments—and the price is fixed and shown in full before you confirm.
Which vehicles are available for a full day in Christchurch?
You can book the Mercedes E-Class sedan for up to two passengers, the V-Class for up to four, or the Sprinter mini-coach for groups of up to ten. Each vehicle comes with luggage capacity to match, and the one you book is the one that arrives.
How does pricing work for a day hire with a chauffeur?
The rate is fixed and includes GST, with no meter and no surge—you see the full cost at chauffeur.co.nz/book before you commit. It covers the vehicle, the driver's time, and the flexibility to change plans during the day without renegotiating.
Can I add stops or change the itinerary during the day?
Yes. Because the chauffeur and vehicle are at your disposal for the hours you've booked, you direct where and when you go. If you finish early at one appointment or want to add a stop in Merivale or Sumner, you simply let the driver know.
Who will be driving?
Every chauffeur is employed directly by chauffeur.co.nz, trained in-house, and accountable to the company—not an app contractor who can decline the booking. The same driver stays with you for the duration of your hire.
Does a full-day booking work for trips outside Christchurch itself?
Absolutely. Many clients use the day to reach Akaroa, wineries in Waipara, or the Port Hills, then return to the city or finish at Christchurch Airport. The vehicle remains yours for the time booked, regardless of distance within reason.
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.
