Convenient and flexible hourly hire divided into 15-minute segments. Your personal chauffeur is at your beck and call every second of the way. Helping with luggage, advice and much more. Transparent pricing with no hidden extras keeps you in control. A bespoke service for any occasion. Your concierge on wheels.
As directed hire gives you a chauffeur and vehicle for a set number of hours rather than a single trip from one address to another.
Your chauffeur stays with you for the full booked period. You can add stops, change the order of your day or keep the car waiting outside a meeting that runs late. None of these changes adds a charge while you’re within your booked time.
A point-to-point transfer ends when you reach your destination. When you book an as-directed chauffeur in Sydney, the car and driver remain on standby until your booked hours finish.
A morning of site visits or an evening across several venues can be handled from one booking. Your chauffeur sends a notification on arrival and stays in contact as plans shift throughout the day.
Our hourly fleet covers every group size, from a solo executive to a party of 14 travelling together.
Customised service with a dedicated private chauffeur. Choose your preferred chauffeur for every ride. Exceptional service and elegance.
You pay a fixed hourly rate 24/7, regardless of time or traffic conditions, with any parking or toll charges billed at cost.
Hire duration starts when the car is booked and ends when your chauffeur reaches your destination, with extra time billed in 15-minute increments.

Half-day and full-day hire suits executives with back-to-back meetings and teams responsible for moving visiting delegates.
Common bookings include board meeting transfers, conference shuttles between hotel and venue, investor roadshows and client dinners. Because the Mercedes Sprinter keeps a whole delegation in one vehicle, timing across a crowded schedule becomes easier to manage.
Business clients can also set up an account and invoice billing for repeat travel through our corporate chauffeur service.
Hourly hire also works for days built around an occasion.
You can book a private driver by the hour in Sydney for a Hunter Valley winery visit or a drive through the Blue Mountains with our private tours.
