Chauffeur Services, Hourly Travel and Events

We serve all five NYC boroughs, Long Island, Westchester County, the Hamptons, New Jersey (including Jersey City, Hoboken, and Princeton), Connecticut (including Greenwich, Stamford, and New Haven), and the broader Tri-State area.

Yes. Rear-facing infant seats, forward-facing toddler seats, and booster seats are available on request ($25 per seat). Specify your child's age and weight when booking and the seat is professionally installed before arrival.

Service animals are accommodated; please note this when booking so dispatch can prepare. If you are traveling with a pet that is not a service animal, mention the pet and carrier size when booking (or call 347-321-9929) so we can confirm vehicle suitability in advance.

Share any required in-vehicle amenities such as Wi-Fi or charging when booking so our team can confirm the vehicle configuration for your trip; Wi-Fi should not be assumed on every booking without confirmation.

For point-to-point service, one pickup and one drop-off is standard. For multi-stop trips, hourly (As Directed) service is the better option. Your chauffeur stays with you for the duration.

Modifications to time, pickup location, or destination are free if made at least 24 hours before the scheduled pickup. Changes within 24 hours are accommodated when possible but may be subject to availability. See our cancellation policy for details.

Yes, hourly as-directed service is available with a 3-hour minimum. Rates are $120/hr for an Executive Sedan, $144/hr for an Executive SUV, $165/hr for a Luxury SUV, and $200/hr for a Luxury Sedan. The chauffeur and vehicle stay with you for the full booking, moving between stops on your schedule rather than running one fixed route. Book online at chauffeurservice.nyc/book, by phone at 347-321-9929, or by email.

The minimum is 3 hours. Rates start at $120/hr for an Executive Sedan, $144/hr for an Executive SUV, $165/hr for a Luxury SUV, and $200/hr for a Luxury Sedan. Sprinter vans are custom-quoted per trip rather than billed at a published hourly rate. Once the 3-hour minimum is met, additional time can be added on the spot as your day runs, subject to chauffeur and vehicle availability.

Yes. Hourly bookings can be extended on the spot if your day runs longer than planned, subject to vehicle and chauffeur availability at that time. There's no separate wait-time clock on hourly service the way there is for airport or point-to-point trips - extra time is simply added to the booking at your hourly rate. Extensions aren't guaranteed if the chauffeur has another booking immediately after yours.

It depends on timing and distances. Hourly service (3-hour minimum, from $120/hr) makes sense if the meetings are close together or your schedule could shift, since the same car and chauffeur wait between stops. Point-to-point trips can work out more economically if the meetings are spread far apart with long gaps in between. Call 347-321-9929 or email us and we can compare both against your actual addresses.

We don't publish specific insurance carrier names or coverage limits here. For a certificate of insurance to support a production or corporate booking, contact us directly at 347-321-9929 or info@chauffeurservice.nyc, or raise it when setting up a corporate account, and we can address what documentation your production or company requires ahead of the booking date.

Yes, hourly as-directed service works well for a shopping day - the chauffeur waits with the vehicle between stops, and bags can be kept secured in the car rather than carried store to store. Rates start at $120/hr for an Executive Sedan, 3-hour minimum. An SUV suits more shopping bags than a sedan if you're planning several stops between SoHo and Fifth Avenue.

Yes, hourly as-directed service covers this - the chauffeur and vehicle stay with you across both boroughs for the full booking, 3-hour minimum, starting at $120/hr for an Executive Sedan. Because viewing schedules can shift or run over, hourly billing generally suits a multi-stop itinerary better than point-to-point trips. Extensions are available on the spot if the day runs long, subject to availability.

Yes, a 4-hour sightseeing booking fits within hourly as-directed service, which has a 3-hour minimum. Rates run from $120/hr for an Executive Sedan up to $200/hr for a Luxury Sedan, depending on vehicle class. The chauffeur follows your itinerary and stops as directed rather than a fixed route, and time can be extended on the spot if you want to keep going, subject to availability.

Yes, hourly as-directed service is used for production days, with a 3-hour minimum and rates from $120/hr for an Executive Sedan up to $200/hr for a Luxury Sedan; Sprinter vans for crew or equipment are custom-quoted per trip. For a certificate of insurance or other production paperwork, contact us at 347-321-9929 or info@chauffeurservice.nyc ahead of the shoot day.

Yes, hourly as-directed service works well for a day involving multiple medical appointments, with a 3-hour minimum and rates from $120/hr for an Executive Sedan up to $200/hr for a Luxury Sedan. The chauffeur waits between appointments and drives directly to each stop rather than needing to be rebooked each leg. We don't publish specific accessibility-equipment details here; mention any mobility needs when booking at 347-321-9929.

Yes, this is a common use of hourly as-directed service - the chauffeur waits with the vehicle through dinner and any stops before or after, billed at the hourly rate for your vehicle class, 3-hour minimum, from $120/hr for an Executive Sedan. Gratuity is optional and never built into the quoted fare, added at your discretion if you choose to tip.

Yes, on hourly as-directed bookings the chauffeur remains with the vehicle at each stop, ready to depart when you are, rather than leaving and being redispatched. This is the core difference from point-to-point service, which is priced and scheduled as a single trip from pickup to drop-off. The car and chauffeur are reserved for your itinerary throughout the full hourly booking.

We don't publish the specific start/stop timing methodology here. Hourly bookings are billed by the hour at the rate for your vehicle class, from $120/hr for an Executive Sedan up to $200/hr for a Luxury Sedan, 3-hour minimum. Whether billing begins garage-to-garage or at your pickup address can vary by booking; ask at 347-321-9929 or when booking online so it's confirmed upfront.

A full day is typically billed as hourly as-directed service at the applicable rate: $120/hr for an Executive Sedan, $144/hr for an Executive SUV, $165/hr for a Luxury SUV, or $200/hr for a Luxury Sedan, 3-hour minimum. An 8-hour day in an Executive Sedan, for example, works out to roughly $936 before tolls or any New Jersey surcharge. The exact total depends on hours and vehicle chosen.

Tolls are included in our flat-rate airport quotes, but hourly as-directed bookings are billed at the stated hourly rate, and tolls incurred during the booking, plus any parking required while the chauffeur waits, are added to the total. A $20 New Jersey surcharge applies if the itinerary crosses into New Jersey. Ask at booking about your planned route so costs are clear upfront.

Yes, dispatch operates 24/7 including weekends and holidays, and hourly as-directed service is available on the same schedule. Pricing does not surge for holidays, weather, or high demand once a booking is confirmed - you pay the standard hourly rate for your vehicle class. Certain high-demand dates may require booking further in advance, which would be disclosed to you at the time of booking.

Hourly as-directed service covers the same territory as our other service: all 5 NYC boroughs, Long Island (Nassau and Suffolk), Westchester County, the Hamptons, New Jersey statewide (with a $20 surcharge), and Connecticut's Gold Coast including Greenwich and Stamford. Longer regional trips, such as to Boston, Washington DC, or Philadelphia, are handled as long-distance service and priced per trip rather than hourly.

"As-directed" means the chauffeur and vehicle are reserved for a block of time - a 3-hour minimum - and follow your instructions for where to go and when, rather than running one fixed route between two points. It's billed hourly by vehicle class, from $120/hr for an Executive Sedan to $200/hr for a Luxury Sedan, and can be extended on the spot if your plans change, subject to availability.

We recommend booking as soon as your venue and timeline are set, ideally several weeks to a couple of months out for peak wedding-season Saturdays, since NYC weekend vehicle availability books up fastest. Shorter-notice requests can sometimes be accommodated depending on the date and vehicle class needed. Call 347-321-9929 or book online at chauffeurservice.nyc/book to check availability for your date and lock in your vehicles.

Yes. We route multi-stop guest shuttles between the hotel, ceremony and reception, coordinating timed round trips or a standing shuttle loop depending on guest count and schedule. The Executive Sprinter, seating up to 14, works well for group shuttles, with executive sedans and SUVs for smaller parties. Share your guest count and timeline at booking so we can size the right vehicle mix and departure windows.

Wedding transportation is typically booked on an hourly as-directed basis with a 3-hour minimum: Executive Sedan $120/hr, Executive SUV $144/hr, Luxury SUV $165/hr, Luxury Sedan $200/hr. Sprinters for guest shuttles are custom-quoted per trip based on headcount and stops. Final cost depends on the vehicle mix, hours reserved, and any New Jersey surcharge. Call 347-321-9929 or book online at chauffeurservice.nyc/book for an exact quote.

We don't publish a fixed deposit schedule here since wedding bookings vary by vehicle mix and hours reserved. Deposit and payment details are confirmed when you book, whether by phone at 347-321-9929, by email at info@chauffeurservice.nyc, or online at chauffeurservice.nyc/book. Our standard cancellation policy applies once the booking is confirmed, so ask about the specific payment terms for your date at that time.

Our standard policy applies: a full refund or credit with 24+ hours' notice, a 50% fee at 12-24 hours, 75% at 2-12 hours, and the full fare under 2 hours or for a no-show. Because wedding dates are high-demand, some Saturdays may require longer advance notice to cancel without penalty; this is disclosed when you book. Ask at booking for the specific terms on your date.

Yes. We can coordinate a full wedding-day fleet, including getting-ready pickups, ceremony and reception transport, guest shuttles, and a getaway car, under one booking with a single point of contact for timing. Vehicles and hours are scheduled around your actual day-of timeline rather than a single point-to-point trip. Share your full schedule when booking so we can plan vehicle assignments and staging for each leg.

Yes, we regularly handle cross-river wedding routes. A flat $20 New Jersey surcharge applies on top of the base fare for the New Jersey leg. Exact pricing depends on the specific Manhattan and New Jersey addresses and the vehicle class booked, so we can't quote a flat figure here. Call 347-321-9929, email info@chauffeurservice.nyc, or book online at chauffeurservice.nyc/book for a route-specific quote.

Yes, we build photo-location stops into the day's routing, including spots like Central Park or DUMBO, with the chauffeur waiting on-site between stops. Because timing, traffic and staging vary by exact location, let us know your planned photo stops and shot-list timing when booking so we can plan hold times and routing around them rather than treating it as a single fixed drop-off.

Yes, we serve all the major regional airports: JFK, LaGuardia, Newark, Teterboro, Westchester, Long Island MacArthur, Philadelphia, and Stewart, so out-of-town guests can be picked up regardless of which one they fly into. Every pickup includes complimentary flight tracking, so timing adjusts automatically to actual arrival. Manhattan flat rates apply for JFK, LaGuardia and Newark; other airports and destinations are quoted per trip.

Our largest single vehicle is the Executive Sprinter, seating up to 14, which is custom-quoted per trip based on your route and headcount. For larger guest lists we can run multiple sprinters or pair sprinters with sedans and SUVs on a rotating shuttle schedule. Tell us your total guest count and pickup points when booking so we can size the right vehicle combination for the day.

Vehicles booked hourly as-directed simply extend past the ceremony's scheduled end, subject to availability, with no separate wait-time clock the way airport pickups have. For point-to-point pickups, 15 minutes is complimentary before additional wait time is billable. If you expect the day may run long, booking extra hourly time upfront, or flagging the possibility at booking, helps us hold the vehicle and chauffeur for you.

Our wedding fleet includes the Executive Sedan (Mercedes E-Class or BMW 5 Series), Executive SUV (Chevrolet Suburban or GMC Yukon XL), Luxury SUV (Cadillac Escalade ESV), Luxury Sedan (Mercedes S-Class or BMW 7 Series), and the Executive Sprinter for guest shuttles, seating up to 14. Vehicle choice depends on wedding-party size, photo plans, and whether a guest shuttle is also needed.

We don't guarantee a specific individual vehicle by make, model or VIN ahead of time, since fleet assignment depends on availability on your date; we do confirm the vehicle class, for example Luxury Sedan or Luxury SUV, at booking. If seeing the exact car matters to you, ask at booking by calling 347-321-9929 and we'll let you know what can be arranged for your date.

Yes, a dedicated getaway vehicle for the couple at the end of the night is a common add-on to a wedding booking. It can be scheduled as a separate pickup timed to your reception's end or booked as part of a continuous hourly reservation that runs through the send-off. Let us know your planned exit time when booking so the vehicle is staged and ready.

Yes, we coordinate directly with wedding planners and day-of coordinators on routing, timing and vehicle counts, and are glad to have them as the point of contact for logistics if the couple prefers. Planners can request quotes and confirm schedules at 347-321-9929 or info@chauffeurservice.nyc the same way a couple would, and multiple people can be looped in on the booking details for one wedding.

Open alcohol consumption in transit is a matter of local law and driver discretion rather than a fixed policy we publish here, so whether champagne is appropriate can depend on the vehicle, the route, and passengers' ages. Ask your chauffeur or raise it when booking so expectations are clear in advance. Note that smoking is not permitted in the vehicle at any time.

Yes, we provide the same hourly as-directed chauffeur service for prom and quinceañera transportation as we do for weddings, using the same vehicle classes, from executive sedans to sprinters for larger groups. Rates follow our standard hourly pricing with a 3-hour minimum. Call 347-321-9929 or book online at chauffeurservice.nyc/book to reserve a vehicle and confirm timing for a prom or quinceañera date.

Reasonable decoration such as "just married" signage or ribbon is generally fine as long as nothing is affixed in a way that damages the vehicle's paint, glass or interior. Magnetic or removable decorations are the safest choice. Let us know what you're planning when booking so the chauffeur can help with setup and make sure it's removed before the vehicle returns to service.
