Hiring a chauffeur for business travel and meetings

A chauffeur is a productivity tool as much as a luxury. The car is a quiet place to take a call, prepare for a meeting or simply arrive composed. These are the ways businesses use it best.

Arrivals and departures

An airport pickup with flight tracking means a visiting executive, client or speaker lands, meets a driver and gets to the meeting without any logistics. See airport transfers.

A day of meetings

Hourly hire keeps one car and driver with a person or small team for a block of time, with unlimited stops. There is no re-booking between meetings and no waiting for dispatch. See hourly hire.

Roadshows and multi-stop days

For a day with several stops, share the itinerary in advance. The driver can plan the route and where to wait, and the schedule stays on track even if one meeting runs over.

Teams and delegations

An Executive Van with captain seats facing a table is a moving meeting room. For larger groups, a Mercedes Sprinter takes up to 12 passengers with luggage, so the team arrives together.

What to tell the driver

  • The first pickup time and address, and any fixed times later in the day.
  • The names of anyone being collected and how to recognise them.
  • Whether the passenger wants quiet or a briefing on the route.
  • Any accessibility, luggage or child seat needs.

Accounts and invoices

If you book regularly or for a team, send a message and tell us what you need. Larger or recurring requirements are priced by a person.
