A private chauffeur service for touring from Christchurch means a Mercedes you've chosen, a driver employed and trained by us, and a fixed price agreed before you leave. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has operated in Christchurch with the same principle: the vehicle you book is the one that arrives, driven by someone accountable to our standards, not an app.
What vehicles are available for touring from Christchurch?
You can book the Mercedes E-Class Sedan for up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons, the V-Class SUV 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. Each vehicle is specified on our /cars page, and the one you select is guaranteed to arrive.
How does pricing work for a day of touring around Christchurch and the surrounding region?
Every booking shows a fixed, GST-inclusive price in full before you confirm—no surge, no meter, no surprises. The exact figure depends on your itinerary and vehicle choice, and you'll see it at /book when you enter your details.
Who will be driving during the tour?
Your chauffeur is employed directly by us, trained to our standards, and accountable to our team—not a contractor who can decline the job or work through an app. That employment relationship is how we maintain consistency across every booking since 2002.
Can I tour from Christchurch to Akaroa or the Port Hills with a private chauffeur?
Yes. Whether you're heading to Akaroa Harbour, the Port Hills lookouts, or north to Kaikoura, a chauffeur service gives you the flexibility to set your own itinerary and timing without the constraints of a bus schedule. You travel at your pace, in the vehicle you've chosen.
Is the service available for pickup from Christchurch Airport to begin a tour?
Christchurch Airport pickups are part of every itinerary. Whether you're starting a tour directly from the terminal or being collected from your accommodation in Fendalton or Merivale, the same fixed-price, no-surge model applies, and your chauffeur will be waiting as arranged.
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.
