A full-day chauffeur in Christchurch gives you a Mercedes and a professional driver for whatever your schedule requires—meetings across the city, a string of appointments, or a day exploring the Banks Peninsula at your own pace. The vehicle you reserve is the one that arrives, with pricing locked in before you confirm, and a driver employed and trained by chauffeur.co.nz rather than an app contractor.

Which vehicles are available for a full day booking in Christchurch?

You can book the Mercedes E-Class Sedan for up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons, the V-Class for up to four passengers with four suitcases and four carry-ons, or the Sprinter mini-coach for up to ten passengers with ten suitcases and ten carry-ons. The vehicle you book is the one that shows up.

How does pricing work for a day hire?

You'll see a fixed, GST-inclusive price before you confirm—no surge, no meter, no surprises. The exact figure depends on your vehicle choice and itinerary, and you'll find it when you step through the booking tool at chauffeur.co.nz/book.

Can the itinerary change during the day?

Yes. Your driver works to your schedule, so if you finish early at one stop or want to add a detour—say, out to Akaroa or a winery in Waipara—you can adjust on the day within reason. The chauffeur is there to adapt to how you actually travel.

Who will be driving?

You'll have a chauffeur employed directly by chauffeur.co.nz, trained in-house and accountable to the company. They're not gig-economy contractors who can decline a job or juggle multiple apps—they work for us, and they know Christchurch.

What kind of trips suit a full-day booking?

Back-to-back meetings across Riccarton, the CBD and Christchurch Airport; a family day visiting Lyttelton, the Gondola and Sumner; or a relaxed drive through the Port Hills and out to Akaroa. Any itinerary where you want a vehicle and driver on hand, rather than booking separate point-to-point legs.


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.
