Private Chauffeur Tours at Your Own Pace

A chauffeured tour is a private day of sightseeing where the route, the stops and the pace are yours alone: you tell us what you want to see and how long you have, and we plan a route around it. There is no coach timetable, no group of strangers and no fixed commentary. If a village takes your fancy you stay longer; if somewhere disappoints, you move on.

The trips we are asked for most fall into a few shapes. A London tour is a circuit of the landmarks you choose, with the chauffeur dropping you close to each sight and collecting you when you are ready, which matters in a city where parking is scarce and distances between sights are longer than they look on a map. Windsor Castle and Eton make an easy half day. Further out, the Cotswolds villages, Blenheim Palace and Stratford-upon-Avon each fill a comfortable full day, and the university cities of Oxford and Cambridge reward a slower visit on foot between drives.

Before the day we agree a plan: the pick-up address and time, the places you want to see, any bookings you have made yourself such as lunch or entry tickets, and roughly when you want to be home. The chauffeur studies the route in advance, including where the car can stop near each sight, and confirms the plan with you. On the day the plan can flex — an extra stop or a change of order is part of the service — and the price is a fixed quote agreed before travel.

Which vehicle suits depends on the party. Couples and small groups usually choose the Mercedes S-Class or the Audi A6 for a quiet, comfortable day. Families and larger parties travel together in the Mercedes V-Class, with room for coats and shopping. For a birthday, anniversary or a day that is itself the occasion, the Rolls-Royce Phantom turns the journey into part of the event. Whichever you choose, the chauffeur is licensed, insured and DBS checked, and the car is yours for the booking.

A few practical notes help the day run well. Entry tickets, restaurant reservations and attraction bookings are made by you, so the times on those bookings shape the route; send them with your enquiry and we will build the driving around them. Comfortable shoes matter more than people expect, because the best parts of Oxford, Cambridge and the Cotswolds are seen on foot while the car waits nearby. If anyone in the party has mobility needs, tell us and we will plan stops where the car can pull up closest.

Tours can be booked as a half day or a full day, and we work 24 hours, so an early start to beat the crowds or a late drive home after dinner in town are both fine. Send us the date, the pick-up address, who is travelling and the places on your list, and we will suggest a route, the right car and a fixed quote before you commit to anything.

Frequently asked questions

Can we build our own itinerary?

Yes. Tell us the places you want to see and how long you have, and we will plan a realistic route with sensible stops rather than a rushed list.

Does the chauffeur act as a guide?

Our drivers know the routes and the stories along them and are happy to talk, though they are chauffeurs rather than badged guides. We can arrange a qualified guide alongside on request.

How long is a typical touring day?

Eight to ten hours including stops. Half days are available and suit a single destination such as Oxford, Cambridge or the Cotswolds.

Can you stop for lunch or photographs?

Of course. The car is yours for the day, so stops are yours to call.

Which vehicle suits a touring day?

The S500 for two, the V-Class for up to seven with room for coats and shopping. Both are quiet enough for a full day on the road.
