Hourly Chauffeur Service in Boston

Book the chauffeur rather than the trip. The car waits, your bags stay in it, and the day runs on your schedule instead of on a dispatcher's.

Rates How it works

Hourly & As-Directed Service in Boston, MA

Boston is small enough to walk and slow enough to drive that the two often take the same time. Logan is minutes from downtown through the tunnels and an hour from downtown when the tunnels back up, which is the single fact that governs every Boston airport booking. The Seaport, Cambridge and Longwood each have their own traffic logic and none of them is the same as downtown's.

What "as directed" actually means

You reserve a block of hours — three is the usual minimum, four in some markets — and inside that block the vehicle is yours. You do not name the stops in advance, you do not re-book between them, and the chauffeur waits at the kerb or in a nearby garage while you are inside. Luggage, samples, coats and shopping stay in the car.

It is the most flexible product we sell and, past about four separate movements in a day, the cheapest. Four point-to-point transfers across a business day almost always cost more than a five-hour as-directed block, and they leave you waiting for a car between each one.

What this means in Boston

Marathon Monday closes a twenty-six mile corridor through eight towns and the city centre. Any booking that day is planned around the route rather than around the map.

Life sciences drives the weekday work: Kendall Square, the Longwood Medical Area, the Seaport and the 128 corridor. Add the university calendar — move-in, parents' weekends, commencement — and Cape Cod and Newport in the summer, and the year has a very clear shape.

A typical as-directed day in Boston

Most hourly bookings here move between these districts, and the route is built against the real traffic profile for the date rather than an average.

The chauffeur identifies the drop-off point, the loading dock and a legal wait or nearby garage for each building before the day starts. On a dense downtown day that preparation is most of the value.

Questions

Hourly & As-Directed in Boston

What is the minimum hourly booking in Boston?

Three hours in most US markets. Inside the block the vehicle is yours: unlimited stops, luggage stays aboard, and the chauffeur waits rather than leaving between them.

Is hourly cheaper than separate transfers in Boston?

Past about four separate movements in a day, almost always — and it removes the waiting between them. The desk will compare both for your itinerary before you book.

What happens if we run over in Boston?

Overtime is billed in fifteen-minute increments at the same hourly rate. There is no penalty rate and no re-booking.

Where does the car wait between stops?

At the kerb where the building allows it, or in a nearby garage where it does not. Marathon Monday closes a twenty-six mile corridor through eight towns and the city centre. Any booking that day is planned around the route rather than around the map.

Travel Center · powered by BookingWorldwide.net

Book the flight, the hotel and the car in one place

Ground transportation is one line of a trip. The Travel Center covers the rest — flights, hotels, resorts, activities, packages and car rental — so the chauffeur is timed to the arrival that was actually booked, not the one somebody remembered.
