A professional driver in Auckland means a chauffeur employed and trained by us, not an app contractor who might decline your booking. Since 2002, chauffeur.co.nz has provided door-to-door service across the city with a Mercedes fleet, upfront fixed pricing, and drivers accountable to one company — not a gig platform.
What's the difference between a professional chauffeur and a rideshare driver in Auckland?
Our chauffeurs are employed and trained by chauffeur.co.nz, answerable to us for every journey. Rideshare relies on independent contractors using their own vehicles who can decline trips. You book a specific Mercedes — Sedan, V-Class, or Sprinter — and that's what arrives.
How does pricing work for door-to-door transfers in Auckland?
Every fare is a fixed, GST-inclusive price shown in full before you confirm — no surge multipliers, no ticking meter. Visit /book to see the exact figure for your route, whether it's Parnell to Auckland Airport or Takapuna to the Viaduct.
Which vehicles are available for professional chauffeur service?
Three Mercedes options: the 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. The vehicle you book is the one that arrives.
Where in Auckland does the service operate?
We cover all of Auckland — CBD, North Shore, eastern suburbs, west, and south — plus Auckland Airport. This is a dedicated point-to-point chauffeur service, not a tour operator, so we focus on door-to-door transfers within the region.
Can I rely on the driver actually showing up?
Yes. Because our chauffeurs are employed by us, they're rostered and accountable for your booking. There's no app-style system where drivers cherry-pick jobs or cancel last minute — your transfer is a commitment we keep.
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.
