A private driver for touring Wellington means a chauffeur employed and trained by us, driving the Mercedes you've booked—Sedan, V-Class or Sprinter—at a fixed price you see in full before you confirm. Since 2002, we've operated without surge pricing or meters, and the vehicle you reserve is the one that arrives.

What vehicles are available for a private touring driver in Wellington?

The Mercedes E-Class Sedan seats up to 2 passengers with 2 suitcases and 2 carry-ons, the V-Class takes 4 passengers with 4 suitcases and 4 carry-ons, and the Sprinter accommodates 10 passengers with 10 suitcases and 10 carry-ons. Every vehicle is Mercedes, and whichever you book is what turns up.

How does pricing work for a full-day tour around Wellington?

You'll see the complete GST-inclusive price before you book—no meter, no surge, no surprises. We don't publish dollar figures here; head to /book, enter your itinerary and vehicle choice, and the fixed cost appears immediately.

Who actually drives on a Wellington touring day?

A chauffeur we employ directly—trained by us, accountable to us, not a contractor who can decline the job or toggle an app off. They know Wellington and the wider region, from the Wairarapa to the Kapiti Coast.

Can I tour outside Wellington city itself?

Yes. Common routes include the Remutaka hill country, Martinborough wine region, or coastal runs to places like Castlepoint. Just outline your itinerary when you book so the fixed price reflects the full journey.

Do I book by the hour or by the route?

You book the vehicle and route; we return a single fixed price that covers the entire itinerary. There's no hourly meter ticking over—just the total you've agreed to, shown in full at /book before you confirm.


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.
