When you book a Christchurch chauffeur through chauffeur.co.nz, you're securing a trained driver employed directly by us, not an app contractor who might decline the job. Since 2002, we've provided executives and their guests with Mercedes vehicles—E-Class sedans, V-Class SUVs, and Sprinter mini-coaches—at a fixed, GST-inclusive price confirmed before you commit.
How is this different from using a rideshare app?
Our chauffeurs are employees we train and hold accountable, not gig workers responding to pings. The vehicle you book—whether a Mercedes E-Class, V-Class, or Sprinter—is the one that arrives, and your price is locked in with no surge or meter.
What happens if my guest's flight into Christchurch Airport is delayed?
Your chauffeur monitors the flight and adjusts the pickup time accordingly. Because you've booked a specific driver for the job, there's no risk of cancellation or surge pricing when plans shift.
Which vehicle should I book for a visiting executive with luggage?
The Mercedes E-Class seats two passengers and fits two suitcases plus two carry-ons. If you're collecting a small delegation or your guest is travelling with colleagues, the V-Class takes four passengers and four full cases plus carry-ons.
Can I arrange a chauffeur for a full day of meetings around Christchurch?
Yes. Quote a full itinerary—airport to Fendalton, then the CBD, then back to the hotel—via the booking tool at /book, and you'll see the complete fixed price before confirming. Our drivers handle the routing and timing while your guest focuses on the day.
Is the price really fixed, or will it change at pickup?
The price you see when you book is the final amount, GST included. No meter, no surge, no surprises—whether you're going from the airport to Merivale or out to a winery meeting in Waipara.
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.
