A proper chauffeur service in Christchurch means a driver employed and trained by the company, a guaranteed vehicle, and a price locked in before you confirm—none of which you'll find with a rideshare app. Chauffeur.co.nz has operated this way since 2002: you book a Mercedes E-Class, V-Class or Sprinter, that's what arrives, and the fare includes GST with no surge.
What makes this different from Uber or Ola in Christchurch?
The driver works directly for chauffeur.co.nz, trained and accountable to the company, not an independent contractor who can decline your booking. You also reserve a specific Mercedes model—Sedan, SUV or Mini-Coach—and that exact vehicle is guaranteed to arrive.
How does pricing work for a Christchurch chauffeur?
