When an executive or their guest needs reliable transport in Christchurch, a professional chauffeur service delivers what rideshare cannot: employed drivers, guaranteed vehicles, and accountability. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has provided fixed-price transfers across the city and to Christchurch Airport, using a fleet of Mercedes sedans, V-Class SUVs, and Sprinter mini-coaches driven by chauffeurs trained and employed in-house.
What makes a private driver different from rideshare for business travel?
A private chauffeur is employed directly by the service, trained to corporate standards, and cannot decline your booking. The vehicle you reserve — whether a Mercedes E-Class sedan or V-Class — is the one that arrives, and pricing is fixed before you confirm, with no surge or meter.
Can I book a chauffeur for airport transfers and city meetings on the same day?
Yes. Whether it's a morning pickup from Christchurch Airport followed by meetings in the central city or Riccarton, or a full day moving between Fendalton, the CBD, and back to the terminal, you book each leg separately at a fixed rate. Check /book for exact pricing on each route.
Which vehicle suits an executive travelling with a colleague or guest?
The Mercedes E-Class sedan accommodates up to two passengers with two full suitcases and two carry-ons — ideal for solo executives or a pair. For larger groups or families joining on business travel, the V-Class seats up to four passengers with four suitcases and four carry-ons.
Is the driver accountable if something goes wrong?
Yes. Every chauffeur is employed and trained by chauffeur.co.nz, not a gig-economy contractor behind an app. If an issue arises, you're dealing with a company that has operated since 2002, not an algorithm.
How do I see the cost before committing?
Visit /book, enter your Christchurch pickup and destination, and the full GST-inclusive price appears before you confirm. No surge pricing, no meter, no surprises — the number you see is what you pay.
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.
