A Wellington private driver at your disposal means you book the vehicle and the professional for the day, then direct the itinerary as you go. The chauffeur has provided this service since 2002: you choose a Mercedes E-Class Sedan, V-Class or Sprinter, the price is fixed and GST-inclusive before you confirm, and the driver is employed and trained by us, not sourced from an app.
How does a full-day private driver booking actually work in Wellington?
You reserve the vehicle and chauffeur for a set number of hours through the booking page, receive a fixed GST-inclusive price with no surge or meter, then on the day you direct the driver to each destination as your plans unfold. The vehicle you book is guaranteed to arrive, and the chauffeur remains at your disposal for the duration.
Which vehicle should I choose for a day around Wellington?
The Mercedes E-Class Sedan suits up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons. The V-Class accommodates up to four passengers with four suitcases and four carry-ons. The Sprinter mini-coach carries up to ten passengers with ten suitcases and ten carry-ons. All three are available for full-day hire.
Can I change the itinerary during the day, or do I need to lock it in beforehand?
You're free to adjust plans on the day itself. Whether you decide to add a stop in Martinborough, extend time in the city, or head out to the Wainuiomata coast, you simply tell the driver and the day adapts. That's the point of having a private chauffeur at your disposal.
What does the fixed price for a full day cover?
The price shown before you book includes the vehicle, the chauffeur's time for the agreed hours, GST, and no hidden fees or surge pricing. For the exact figure and to compare durations, visit the booking page. There's no meter running and no surprises.
Is the driver someone employed by the chauffeur, or a contractor who might cancel?
Every driver is employed directly by the chauffeur, trained in-house and accountable to the company. You're not relying on an app contractor who can decline the job or arrive in an unvetted vehicle. The same standard applies across Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Queenstown.
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.
