Hourly chauffeur hire gives you the vehicle and the chauffeur for a block of time, with unlimited stops anywhere inside Istanbul. Waiting, parking, fuel and tolls are all inside the hourly rate.
It is the natural choice for meeting days, property viewings, shopping across Nişantaşı and the Grand Bazaar, medical appointments, and any itinerary that is likely to change while you are living it.
Unlimited stops
Inside Istanbul, stop as often as you like. There is no per-stop charge and no re-quoting mid-day.
Waiting is included
The chauffeur waits at each stop with the vehicle. You are not paying twice for the same hour.
Minimum four hours
Blocks of four, six, eight or twelve hours. Extend on the day at the same hourly rate.
Any vehicle class
From E-Class to Sprinter — hourly hire is available across the whole fleet.
When hourly beats point-to-point
Three separate transfers in a day usually cost more than a four-hour block, and they leave you waiting for each new car. If your day involves a meeting, a lunch and a return to the hotel, hourly is both cheaper and calmer.
The exception is a straight airport run with nothing in between — for that, a fixed point-to-point price is the better deal and we will tell you so.
Beyond roughly six hours the arithmetic changes again and a full day chauffeur in Istanbul becomes the cheaper booking: eight or ten hours are quoted as a block, the chauffeur stays with you between stops, and nothing is re-priced because the day ran long.
Outside the city
Hourly rates cover journeys inside Istanbul. For Bursa, Sapanca, Şile, Edirne or Çanakkale we quote a fixed intercity price instead, including tolls, ferry crossings and the chauffeur's expenses.
Common questions
In practice yes, but without the rental paperwork. You do not sign a rental agreement, leave a deposit or take on any liability for the vehicle — you book a block of hours and a chauffeur-driven car is at your disposal for them. Guests who search for hourly car hire with driver, hourly chauffeur hire, or how to rent a car with a driver in Istanbul all end up on this service. The one difference worth knowing: a rental desk hands you keys and a stranger, we assign a vehicle we own and a chauffeur we employ.
