When a driver is better than separate taxis
A dedicated driver keeps one contact across meetings, restaurants, hotel changes and practical errands. It also lets the route be ordered before the day rather than explained repeatedly.
A direct airport or hotel transfer remains better for one simple point-to-point journey. Choose the chauffeur when availability and waiting are part of the service.
Hourly, half day or full day
- Hourly: short sequence of stops, with a two-hour minimum
- Half day: a concentrated morning or afternoon program
- Full day: a working day or city itinerary with several stops
- Multi-day: consecutive full days with the published discount threshold
What to include in the schedule
- Start time and pickup pin
- Every known stop and appointment
- Expected waiting at each location
- Passenger changes during the day
- Luggage or equipment carried
- Final drop-off and any airport deadline
