A luxury driver for the day in Auckland means a professional chauffeur and premium vehicle at your disposal from morning until evening, shaped entirely around your schedule. chauffeur.co.nz has provided this service since 2002: you get a Mercedes E-Class or V-Class with one of our employed drivers, a fixed GST-inclusive price agreed before you confirm, and the freedom to plan your day without watching the clock.
How does booking a driver for the whole day actually work?
You reserve the vehicle and chauffeur through /book for a set number of hours—typically eight to twelve—and we quote a single, all-inclusive price with no meter running. Your driver arrives at the time you nominate, stays with you throughout the day, and adapts to route changes or timing shifts as they happen.
Which vehicle should I choose for a full day in Auckland?
The Mercedes E-Class sedan suits up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons, ideal for business appointments or a couple's itinerary. The V-Class takes four passengers with four suitcases plus four carry-ons, better when you're moving between Ponsonby, the Viaduct, and out to Waiheke or the west-coast wineries with friends or family.
Can I change the itinerary once the day has started?
Yes. Because you've booked the chauffeur and vehicle for the day rather than a single route, your driver adjusts to revised plans—whether that's an extra stop in Parnell, a detour to Auckland Airport, or more time at a vineyard than you'd originally allowed.
What's included in the daily rate?
The fixed price covers the chauffeur's time, the vehicle, fuel, parking, tolls, and GST—nothing is added later and there's no surge. Head to /book to see the exact figure for your date and hours; we show the full cost before you commit.
Who will be driving?
One of our own chauffeurs—employed by chauffeur.co.nz, trained to our standard, and accountable to us. They're not app contractors who can decline a job or hand it off, and the vehicle you book is the one that arrives.
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.
