A chauffeur-driven car in Christchurch means a fixed-price transfer in the Mercedes you've chosen, driven by a professional we employ directly. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has operated without surge pricing or meters—the GST-inclusive rate you see when booking is what you pay, whether you're crossing town from Fendalton to the airport or heading out to Lyttelton.
Which vehicles can I book for a private transfer in Christchurch?
You can choose a Mercedes E-Class sedan for up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons, a V-Class for up to four passengers with four suitcases, or a Sprinter mini-coach for up to ten passengers with ten suitcases. The vehicle you book is the one that arrives.
How does fixed pricing work for point-to-point transfers?
Every route shows a single GST-inclusive price before you confirm—no meter running, no surge multiplier, no surprises. You'll see the exact number when you enter your pick-up and drop-off on the booking page, and that figure stays locked regardless of traffic or time of day.
Who will be driving the car?
A chauffeur employed and trained by us, not an app contractor. Our drivers work directly for chauffeur.co.nz, which means they're accountable to our standards and won't decline your booking mid-process.
Can I book a chauffeur-driven transfer from Riccarton to Christchurch Airport?
Yes—any point-to-point journey within Christchurch is bookable online, including suburb-to-airport runs, hotel transfers, or trips out to Sumner or New Brighton. Enter both addresses to see the fixed price and vehicle options.
Do you operate chauffeur services outside Christchurch?
We serve Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Queenstown only. If your journey starts or ends in one of those four cities, you can book it through chauffeur.co.nz with the same fixed pricing and employed-driver model.
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.
