About Hourly Charter from Swift Chauffeur Worldwide
Swift Chauffeur Worldwide offers hourly charter service in New York City with a straightforward proposition: you book a chauffeur and vehicle by the hour, and they stay with you for the confirmed booking window. Hourly charter is the right booking type for multi-stop days — investor meetings across Midtown, shopping errands on Madison Avenue, or an evening of restaurant-hopping from SoHo to Williamsburg. Rates start at $85 per hour for a Mercedes E-Class sedan, $95 per hour for a Cadillac Escalade SUV, $125 per hour for a Mercedes S-Class, and $150 per hour for a Mercedes Sprinter Van. The minimum booking is two hours for sedan, SUV, and S-Class, and three hours for the Sprinter. Standard quotes include the chauffeur, vehicle, fuel, standard tolls, bottled water, and wait time between scheduled stops. Hourly charter is as-directed within the reserved window: you can update routing, add reasonable stops, or request an extension through your chauffeur or dispatch line when availability permits.
