A chauffeur changes what a car is for. Instead of a vehicle you drive, it becomes a space you work in, arrive from, or simply sit back in while somebody else deals with the traffic — and the car still matters, because it is the first thing anyone sees. Veloce runs chauffeur-driven hire from our Cape Town base in Green Point and from Melrose Arch in Johannesburg, across the same fleet we rent self-drive: executive sedans, luxury SUVs, people carriers for a group travelling together, and the supercars and exotics when the occasion calls for one.

The briefs repeat themselves in a good way. An airport collection where the flight lands late and somebody needs to be there anyway. A day of meetings across a city where parking is the worst part. A wedding where the couple should not be driving. A corporate programme, a brand activation, a media shoot, a milestone birthday, a matric dance arrival. Some of these want an understated sedan and a driver who disappears into the background, others want the car to be the point. Tell our team the occasion, the route and how many people are travelling, and we can advise on which car fits the day.

Chauffeur-driven hire is quoted as a flat package by event rather than by the day, because the shape of the work varies so much — a single transfer and a twelve-hour programme are not the same booking. The quote covers the car, the driver and the waiting time in between, so there is nothing to settle at the end of the evening. Collection and delivery are arranged around your schedule in both cities, including the airports. Send through the date, the pick-up point and roughly how the day runs, and we will come back with the car options and the cost.
