Hourly & As-Directed Chauffeur

Book by the hour and the vehicle waits. Four separate transfers in a day cost more and work worse than a chauffeur who knows where you are going next.

How hourly works

A minimum block — usually three hours for sedans and SUVs, longer for limousines and coaches — then billing in fifteen-minute increments at the same rate with no penalty for running over. The chauffeur follows your itinerary as it changes and keeps the desk informed if the day runs long.

Typical days

  • A day of meetings across a city, with the chauffeur waiting at each
  • A property viewing tour with an agent in the car
  • A shopping day with the bags kept in the vehicle
  • Sightseeing with a chauffeur who knows the drop-off at each attraction
  • A wedding day from the hotel to the ceremony, the photographs and the reception

Also booked as: hourly chauffeur service, chauffeur by the hour, as directed car service.
