A chauffeur-driven car in Wellington means a professional driver employed by the service, a vehicle you've chosen that actually turns up, and a price agreed before you confirm — not a gig-economy gamble. Chauffeur.co.nz has operated this way since 2002: fixed rates with GST included, no meter, no surge, and drivers trained and accountable to the company, not an app.

What's the difference between a chauffeur and a rideshare in Wellington?

A chauffeur is employed directly by the company, trained to a consistent standard, and can't decline your booking once confirmed. Rideshare drivers are app contractors who choose which jobs to accept, with variable service quality and surge pricing during peak times or bad weather.

Which vehicles are available for chauffeur service in Wellington?

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

Does the price change depending on traffic or time of day?

No. The price is fixed and includes GST, shown in full before you confirm the booking. There's no meter running, no surge multiplier during airport rushes or evening events, and no surprises when you complete the trip.

Can I book a chauffeur from Wellington Airport to the city or Hutt Valley?

Yes. Door-to-door service covers Wellington Airport to any address in the region — the CBD, Thorndon, Johnsonville, Lower Hutt, or further out. The booking system at chauffeur.co.nz shows the exact price for your specific pickup and destination.

How do I get the price for my Wellington journey?

Visit chauffeur.co.nz/book, enter your pickup and drop-off addresses, and the fixed, GST-inclusive price appears before you confirm. No account required to see the number, and it won't change once you've booked.


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.
