Hourly chauffeur hire: a car and driver for as long as you need

How hourly hire works

Choose the number of hours when you book, from three up to twelve, and the fare shows straight away. The car and driver are yours for that block. You can make as many stops as you like inside it, change the plan on the day and leave the car for an hour without worrying about where it goes.

Hourly hire is charged by the hour rather than by distance, because what you are paying for is the car being held for you, not the kilometres it covers. It is the same rate in every city, set by the vehicle you choose.

When hourly hire is the better choice

A day of meetings across a city. A roadshow with several stops. A night out across a few venues. Visitors who want to see a city without working out how to get between things. A site visit with waiting time at each end. A family day with luggage, children and no wish to be tied to a timetable.

If you are making a single trip from A to B, a general transfer is the simpler option. If you will make three or more stops, or you do not know how long each one will take, hourly hire is easier to plan around.

Making the most of your hours

Tell us the rough plan when you book, with the first pickup and any fixed times, and your driver will arrive ready. On the day, keep the driver informed about the next stop and they will plan the route and where to wait. If a meeting runs over, the car is still there.
