An executive chauffeur in Christchurch means a professional driver employed by the service, arriving in the Mercedes you've booked, at a price agreed before you confirm. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has operated without surge pricing, without meters, and without the uncertainty of whether an app contractor will accept your trip.
What makes this different from using a rideshare app in Christchurch?
The driver works directly for chauffeur.co.nz — trained, accountable, and unable to decline your booking once confirmed. The vehicle you reserve is the one that arrives, whether that's the Mercedes E-Class sedan or V-Class SUV, and the price is fixed and inclusive of GST before you book.
Which vehicles are available for executive transfers in Christchurch?
Three Mercedes options: the E-Class sedan seats up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons; the V-Class handles up to four passengers with four suitcases and four carry-ons; and the Sprinter mini-coach accommodates up to ten passengers with corresponding luggage.
Does the fixed price apply to Christchurch Airport pickups and city-to-city trips?
Yes. Whether it's a collection from Christchurch Airport to Merivale, a transfer to Lyttelton, or a longer point-to-point trip within the South Island, the price shown at /book is the full amount — no tolls added, no surprises.
How far in advance should I book an executive chauffeur in Christchurch?
Booking ahead is recommended, particularly for early-morning airport departures or arrivals during busy periods. The system shows live availability, so you'll know immediately whether your preferred time is open.
Are chauffeur services available outside Christchurch?
chauffeur.co.nz operates in four cities: Christchurch, Auckland, Wellington, and Queenstown. Point-to-point transfers between South Island locations can be arranged through the booking system where coverage allows.
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.
