Private Driver Hire

Your private driver in Switzerland — by the hour, within a day

Hire a professional chauffeur for 3 to 12 whole hours within a single day. We handle the driving, parking, tolls and navigation — you focus on business, sightseeing or family.

By-the-hour flexibility

Book from 3 up to 12 whole hours in one day. Adjust your route during the booked time as needed — ideal for meetings, shopping and unpredictable schedules.

One chauffeur for your day

The same chauffeur stays with you for the whole booking — learns your route preferences and keeps your luggage with you between stops.

Professional discretion

Conversations and itineraries are treated as confidential as standard practice; we don't offer separate NDA or confidentiality contracts.

Common use cases

• Business day — meetings across Zurich, Zug or Basel in a single booked day. • Wedding driver for the day — ceremony, photos and dinner. • Family sightseeing day — you explore, your chauffeur drives and parks. • Medical appointments — Zurich, Basel or Lausanne clinics with door-to-door comfort. • Ski day trips — transfer from Zurich or Geneva to Verbier, Zermatt or St. Moritz within the same day.

How it differs from a taxi or ride-hailing

A taxi is transactional — one trip, one fare. A private driver is booked by the hour for your day: professional dress code, a Mercedes, and briefed on your schedule in advance, rather than hailed on the spot.

Prices

Your estimated price is shown in our calculator based on vehicle class and hours booked (3 to 12 whole hours), with free pickup waiting of 15 to 60 minutes depending on the pickup type and paid waiting beyond that shown per minute. Requesting a return transfer within 15 hours of the outbound pickup gets 50% off the return fare.

Frequently asked questions

Is a private driver in Switzerland worth it?

For anyone who values time and reliability within a single day — yes. Especially for multi-stop business days or airport runs where public transport is less flexible.

Can I book for a whole day?

Yes — hourly disposal runs from 3 up to 12 whole hours in one day; it does not cover overnight or multi-day arrangements.

What about the driver's rest hours?

Swiss tachograph rules limit driving hours per day, and we plan bookings to comply, which is why bookings are capped at 12 hours within a single day.

Do you provide cross-border driving?

Yes — to Italy, France, Germany, Austria and Liechtenstein, within the same booked day. Please mention destinations at booking so we prepare accordingly.

How do I pay?

Each booking is paid individually online in advance by card, TWINT or Apple Pay, and you receive a receipt — paying the driver directly is not available.
