A private transfer in Christchurch means a dedicated Mercedes, an employed chauffeur, and a fixed price agreed before you travel. Chauffeur.co.nz has operated across the Garden City since 2002, connecting homes, hotels, the airport, and every address in between without meters or surge pricing. The vehicle you book is the one that arrives.
What vehicles are available for private transfers in Christchurch?
You can book a Mercedes E-Class Sedan for up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons, a V-Class for up to four passengers with four suitcases, or a Sprinter mini-coach for groups of up to ten with matching luggage. Each vehicle is specified when you book, and that's what arrives.
How does pricing work for point-to-point journeys around Christchurch?
Every transfer is priced as a single fixed amount, GST-inclusive, with no meter and no surge. The full price is shown before you confirm the booking at chauffeur.co.nz/book, so there are no surprises when you travel.
Who will be driving my private transfer?
Your chauffeur is employed directly by chauffeur.co.nz, trained in-house, and accountable to the company — not an app contractor who can decline the job. This ensures consistency and reliability across every journey.
Can I book a transfer from Christchurch Airport to Merivale or Sumner?
