A chauffeur in Wellington means a trained, employed driver who arrives in the Mercedes you've booked—not an app contractor who might cancel or a vehicle that's a surprise on the day. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has run fixed-price, door-to-door transfers across the capital, from Kelburn to the airport, Miramar to the CBD, with no surge pricing and no guesswork.

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

A chauffeur is employed directly by us, trained to our standard, and accountable for every job—they don't decline trips or juggle multiple apps. The vehicle you book is the one that arrives, whether that's a Mercedes E-Class sedan or V-Class SUV, and the price is fixed before you confirm, with no surge and no meter.

Which vehicles are available for door-to-door transfers in Wellington?

You can book a Mercedes E-Class sedan (up to 2 passengers, 2 suitcases and 2 carry-ons), a V-Class SUV (up to 4 passengers, 4 suitcases and 4 carry-ons), or a Sprinter mini-coach (up to 10 passengers, 10 suitcases and 10 carry-ons). The vehicle you select is the one that turns up.

How does pricing work for a Wellington chauffeur transfer?

Every fare is a fixed, GST-inclusive price shown in full before you book—no surge, no meter, no surprises. You'll see the exact number when you enter your pickup and drop-off on the booking page at /book.

Can I book a chauffeur from Wellington Airport to the city or other suburbs?

Yes. We cover door-to-door transfers throughout Wellington, including pickups from Wellington Airport to the CBD, Lower Hutt, Porirua, or anywhere else in the region. The same fixed pricing and employed-driver model applies to every trip.

Where else in New Zealand does chauffeur.co.nz operate?

We operate in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, and Queenstown only. Each city uses the same model: employed chauffeurs, Mercedes vehicles, and fixed prices shown before you book.


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.
