Chauffeur service in Istanbul
A chauffeur service in Istanbul, at its simplest, means one car and one driver assigned to you rather than shared. For a single transfer that means a vehicle waiting only for you. For a stay of several days it means the same chauffeur throughout, which is where the service starts to feel genuinely different.
Our chauffeurs are salaried employees, not gig drivers. They are background-checked, SRC-certified, uniformed and briefed on discretion before they ever collect a guest.
Assigned, not dispatched
The same chauffeur and vehicle for the duration of your booking or your visit.
Your schedule, not a meter
Point to point, by the hour, or a full itinerary planned with the desk in advance.
Local knowledge
Restaurants that need a call ahead, streets a van cannot enter, the fastest of three routes at that hour.
Discretion as standard
No photography, no questions, no conversation unless you want one. Written into every contract.
Who books a chauffeur driven car
Executives on multi-day visits who do not want to think about transport between meetings. Families who would rather have one trusted driver for a week than a stranger each morning. Guests attending weddings and events across several venues. Anyone who values knowing exactly who is driving.
Private chauffeur and driver hire in Istanbul
Driver hire in Istanbul can mean two different things: a driver who turns up in their own car, or a professional chauffeur with a company vehicle. We only offer the second. The car is ours, maintained and insured by us, and the chauffeur is on our payroll — so a private chauffeur booked with us is accountable to the same desk from the first message to the last drop-off.
You can hire a driver for a single journey, by the hour for a busy day, or for your whole stay with the same chauffeur throughout.
How it is priced
Single journeys are quoted as a fixed price per vehicle. Multi-day assignments are quoted per day with an agreed number of hours, and we tell you in advance what happens if the day runs long — no surprises after midnight.

Common questions
Yes — those are the same service under different names, and we answer to all of them. What matters is the arrangement behind the name: the car is ours rather than the driver's own vehicle, the chauffeur is on our payroll rather than a freelancer we called, and the two are assigned to you for the booking. A guest who asks for a personal driver and a guest who asks for a chauffeur driven car in Istanbul are asking us for the same thing.
Yes, and we recommend it. Tell the desk your dates and we assign one chauffeur for the period, with a briefed substitute only if illness makes it unavoidable.
Yes. Within an hourly or daily assignment the vehicle stays with you, including waiting time, parking and any repositioning.
All work in English. Arabic, Russian, German and Turkish are available within the team — request the language when booking.
