An executive chauffeur in Wellington means a professional you can count on: employed by us, driving the Mercedes you've booked, at a fixed price you see upfront. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has provided point-to-point service across the capital—airport runs, meetings in the CBD, transfers to Lower Hutt or the Wairarapa—without surge pricing, meters, or the uncertainty of a contractor who might cancel.

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

A chauffeur is our employee—trained, accountable, and assigned to your booking—while rideshare drivers are app contractors who can decline or cancel. You also book a specific vehicle (Mercedes E-Class, V-Class, or Sprinter), and that's the one that arrives, with a fixed GST-inclusive price locked in before you confirm.

Which vehicles are available for executive transfers in Wellington?

The Mercedes E-Class sedan seats up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons. The V-Class takes up to four passengers with four suitcases and four carry-ons. For larger groups, the Sprinter accommodates ten passengers and ten full-size bags plus carry-ons.

How does pricing work for door-to-door chauffeur service?

You see the full, GST-inclusive fare before you book—no meter, no surge, no surprises. Visit chauffeur.co.nz/book, enter your pickup and drop-off (say, Wellington Airport to Thorndon, or Te Aro to Martinborough), and the system shows the exact price for the vehicle you choose.

Can I book a chauffeur for a meeting pickup in Wellington's CBD?

Yes. Point-to-point service covers any address in Wellington—Parliament precinct, Lambton Quay offices, the waterfront, or out to Petone and beyond. Enter both addresses when you book and the guaranteed vehicle will be there at the time you set.

Is chauffeur.co.nz available outside Wellington city?

Within the Wellington region, yes—Porirua, Upper and Lower Hutt, and the Kāpiti Coast are all served. We operate in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, and Queenstown only, so longer-distance transfers outside the greater Wellington area depend on your specific route.


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.
