Which ride type is right for me?
Updated over 4 months ago

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.
