Hourly Chauffeur Hire or Point to Point: Which Fits Your Trip?
Two ways to book the same car — and a simple rule for choosing between them.
Every reservation we take is one of two things: a transfer from A to B, or a car and chauffeur held for a block of time. Choosing right is mostly about how certain your schedule is.
Point to point
One pickup, one destination, a flat rate quoted in advance. Airport transfers, hotel to dinner, cruise terminal runs. There is no time minimum, and the price does not change if traffic is bad — that risk sits with us, not with you.
Hourly / as directed
The vehicle and chauffeur stay with you. You decide the stops as the day goes: a meeting that overruns, an extra showing, a detour for dinner. Sedans carry a three-hour minimum and SUVs a four-hour minimum, billed from pickup to release.
The simple rule
Two stops or fewer and a known schedule → point to point. Three or more stops, or any uncertainty about timing → hourly. Wine tours, wedding days, roadshows and shopping days are always hourly; the flexibility is the entire product.
What is added on top
- Extra stops on a point-to-point trip: from $10 (sedan) / $20 (SUV).
- Late-night pickups between 10:30 p.m. and 3:59 a.m.: $10.
- Major holidays: $30.
- Car seats: $10 each. Tolls and gratuity are itemised on the invoice.
If you are not sure which one your trip is, send us the itinerary through the quote form and we will price it both ways.
