Book NowAbout Hourly Chauffeur from Swift Chauffeur Worldwide
Swift Chauffeur Worldwide provides hourly chauffeur service in New York City — a booking where you pay per hour and the chauffeur stays with you for the entire duration. Your chauffeur drives you between multiple stops, waits during meetings, and adjusts the plan as your day unfolds. Hourly chauffeur rates in NYC start at $95 per hour for a Mercedes E-Class sedan, $125 per hour for a Cadillac Escalade SUV, $145 per hour for a Mercedes S-Class, and $175 per hour for a Mercedes Sprinter Van. The minimum booking is two hours for sedan, SUV, and S-Class, and three hours for Sprinter. Rates include the chauffeur, vehicle, fuel, standard tolls (FDR/airport tolls billed separately), bottled water, Wi-Fi on select vehicles, complimentary wait time between stops, and route planning. Not included: gratuity (standard 20%), parking fees, long-distance mileage beyond the NYC metro, and out-of-area tolls. Hourly chauffeur makes sense when you have three or more stops, an unclear return time, or need the chauffeur to wait between appointments. For a single A-to-B transfer with a known pickup and dropoff, point-to-point is typically more cost-effective.
