Booking a professional driver for the day in Christchurch means a chauffeur and vehicle dedicated entirely to your schedule, whether that's six hours exploring the peninsula or twelve covering meetings, visits and dinner across town. The price is fixed and GST-inclusive before you confirm, the chauffeur is employed and trained by us, and the vehicle you reserve—Sedan, SUV or Mini-Coach—is the one that arrives.

How does a full-day chauffeur booking work in Christchurch?

You choose your vehicle, nominate the hours you need and see the complete fixed price before booking. Your chauffeur collects you at the time and address you specify, then remains at your disposal until the booking ends—whether that's shuttling between Fendalton, the city centre and Lyttelton, or standing by while you attend appointments.

Which vehicle should I book for a day of travel around Christchurch?

The Mercedes E-Class Sedan suits up to two passengers with two suitcases and two carry-ons. The V-Class SUV takes four passengers and double the luggage. The Sprinter Mini-Coach accommodates ten passengers with ten suitcases and ten carry-ons—useful if your day involves collecting a group from Christchurch Airport, visiting Akaroa, then returning to separate hotels.

Can the itinerary change during the day, or is it locked in?

Your day unfolds as you need it to. Add a stop in Sumner, push back a departure, reroute from Riccarton to New Brighton—the chauffeur adjusts in real time because you've reserved both the vehicle and their time, not a series of separate fixed trips.

What's included in the fixed day-rate price?

The price covers the vehicle, the chauffeur's time, fuel and GST for the hours you book—no meter, no surge, no add-ons. You'll see the exact figure when you visit the booking page and enter your dates and duration; we never publish rates here because they vary by season and availability.

Who will be driving, and how do I reach them on the day?

A chauffeur employed directly by us—trained to our standard and accountable for the service. Once your booking is confirmed, you receive their contact details so any last-minute timing adjustments or pickup changes can be handled directly, without passing messages through a call centre or app.


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.
