Step 1
Check the prices from at least 3 Chauffeur companies.
Most Chauffeur Company websites offer you an instant quote (Usually in less than 30 seconds)
As you book and pay in advance, the price you see is the price you pay, avoiding extra charges on the day for added on extras such as toll roads, waiting time, parking etc.
Step 2
Visit the licence Checker page to ensure you are travelling with a bona fide Company. Most importantly, the Licence checker information page contains links to the relevant Licensing authorities ‘’Public Register search for Licensed Private Hire Operators, Drivers, and Vehicles’’.
