A Wellington chauffeur service for executives and their guests means an employed driver in a guaranteed Mercedes—E-Class sedan, V-Class people-mover, or Sprinter mini-coach—not an app contractor who may decline your booking. Chauffeur.co.nz has operated this model since 2002: fixed GST-inclusive pricing with no surge or meter, and drivers trained and accountable to the company, not a platform.

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

A chauffeur is an employed driver trained and accountable to the company, arriving in the specific Mercedes vehicle you've booked. Rideshare connects you to independent contractors using their own cars, who can decline trips and whose availability fluctuates with demand pricing.

Which vehicle should an executive book for airport transfers from Wellington Airport?

The Mercedes E-Class sedan suits one or two passengers with two full-size suitcases plus two carry-ons. For a group of up to four executives or an executive travelling with guests, the V-Class carries four passengers and four suitcases plus carry-ons.

How is pricing structured for Wellington executive chauffeur service?

Every fare is a fixed, GST-inclusive price shown in full before you confirm the booking—no meter, no surge, no surprises. The exact figure for your route appears at /book when you enter your pickup and destination.

Does the chauffeur service cover Wellington suburbs like Kelburn or Oriental Bay?

Yes, the service covers Wellington Airport, the central city, and surrounding suburbs including Kelburn, Oriental Bay, and other Wellington addresses. The same fixed-price, employed-driver model applies regardless of route.

Can I be sure the vehicle I book will actually arrive?

The vehicle you book is the vehicle that arrives—if you reserve the E-Class, V-Class, or Sprinter, that's what pulls up. The driver is employed by the chauffeur, not a gig worker who might cancel or substitute a different car.
