We are often asked how much is a chauffeur service. For a company like FYSLA Chauffeurs, it can sometimes be difficult to provide general prices as every journey is unique. Here we break it down for you and try to give you a rough guide.
how is a chauffeur service different to a taxi?
To first understand how we price journeys, we need to address the obvious. Chauffeur services do cost more than a standard taxi. But there's a very good reason for this.
When booking a journey through FYSLA, you are benefitting from an experience like no other.
Our cars are all luxury Mercedes vehicles, some equipped with reclining leather seats, WiFi, televisions and more.
You'll also get the fully personalised chauffeur service. Think of your driver like an assistant during the day. They'll take you where you need to go safely and in style.
what are the different costs?
Costs for a chauffeur service can vary depending on a range of factors, including:
The type of car chosen - Costs can differ depending on fuel costs for the car, unique features inside the vehicles and the number of passengers
The length of the journey - It goes without saying that the length of the journey will affect the price. Remember, you're not just paying for the fuel, you're also paying for the driver's time
Any wait time - Sometimes our chauffeurs are asked to wait at the destination and also provide a return journey. This can happen during concerts or events, for example
Any additional fees incurred - Prices can differ if additional fees have to be paid by the driver, including toll roads and airport drop off fees
Are there any hidden costs?
When quoting for a chauffeured journey, at FYSLA we ensure there are no hidden costs. All pricing is agreed in advance. If fuel costs increase considerably between the date of booking and the journey date, we will communicate this in advance to ensure you are fully aware before the journey takes place.
Can you pay for a permanent driver?
Some individuals, families and companies choose to have a permanent driver instead of paying for a one-off journey. FYSLA can make arrangements for a regular chauffeur service which would be priced accordingly.
Does a chauffeur charge by the hour?
Generally the cost of a chauffeur service is based on the full trip and not priced by the hour. This is due to all the different factors which go into planning your journey, as explained above.
How much is a chauff
eur service?
As a rough ballpark figure, you can expect to pay anywhere from £150 upwards for a chauffeur driven service, as a one off or return trip. For full time chauffeur services, this is generally charged on a contracted or salaried basis and tends to start from £30,000 upwards per annum.
