As Directed Chauffeur Hire

Stay in control of the day, with a professional chauffeur ready for each next stop.

As directed

A Chauffeur Who Follows Your Schedule

As directed hire keeps a private chauffeur with you for a period of time, rather than a single A-to-B transfer. You decide the order of stops, waiting time and changes as the day unfolds.

Share your start point, the hours you need and any known destinations. We confirm the vehicle, the chauffeur and a clear quotation. Extra stops can be added as you go, so the itinerary does not have to be fixed before you travel.

The loveliest way to get from Heathrow to Oxford! Drivers Ali and Mohsin were so kind and courteous. Easy to book and communicate with — getting the driver’s phone number in booking details is so helpful. Thank you for starting my journey off well!

I booked a taxi for 4am in the morning with less than 24hrs notice. They were professional, kind, and courteous. Ray, my driver was a gentleman and treated me with respect and kindness and arrived early. I received a text message on his arrival. I was unexpectedly upgraded and the service remained 5 star.

I’m impressed by the service provided. We ordered a transfer for 3.00am to Heathrow airport, and they were very punctual, friendly and responsive. Highly recommend.
