Which ride type is right for me?
Which ride type is right for me?
Updated yesterday

You can choose from several ride types, depending on your specific needs. Each is best suited for a different kind of journey.


One way

One way is your standard A-to-B transfer. This is the best option for a simple one-off journey. You can add a stop along the way if needed, but by-the-hour may be a better fit if you need to stop more than once.

  • simple and straightforward

  • request an extra stop in the "special requests" if needed

You can generate a quote by following these simple steps.


By the hour

By the hour bookings allow you to reserve a chauffeur for 2 hours or more. The added flexibility of an on-call chauffeur means you can go wherever you need within the duration. These services come with a set amount of included distance in your quote, so they are best suited for trips within the city.

By the hour is also a good choice if you are going to an event and aren't sure when it will end. Book a comfortable duration so that you can take your time, with a chauffeur waiting for you.

  • offer the most flexibility

  • provide an itinerary up-front, or decide as you go

  • limited distance included (20 km per hour booked)

*To reserve a chauffeur for multiple days, please place multiple bookings.

*Chauffeurs can be reserved by-the-hour for a maximum of 24 hours. However, in many cities there are regulations that limit the number of hours a chauffeur can work consecutively. For safety reasons, longer by-the-hour bookings may require a chauffeur-swap part way through the service.
