Our clients would say so, when we turn up at 3am for a drive to Heathrow airport from Derby in 1 of our spacious Mercedes Benz E-class saloons or V-class MPV’s.
As full time Derby chauffeurs, we may not be seen as luxury by all our clients, but with a stunning fleet of Mercedes Benz vehicles that includes 3 NEW Mercedes Benz V-class MPV’s added in 2024, we are certainly a luxury experience to most of our clients compared to their own experiences of taxi services previously used.
Quality, affordability, experience and a knowledge of the extensive UK motorway network, airports, cruise terminals and cities UK wide is an highly preferred by clients using Derby Chauffeurs VIP, Est 2007.
Our Derby chauffeur drivers don’t provide taxis until we get a Derby chauffeur or Derby airport transfer in to complete, this ensures cars and MPV’s are kept clean for their next booking, and they may have 2 bookings per day. Cleanliness of vehicles is an important factor not only to our clients, but to our drivers and the company they represent every day they work. Most of our work focuses on long distance travel from Derby to Heathrow airport, Gatwick airport, London City airport, Manchester airport, Stansted airport, Luton airport, Birmingham airport, central London, Dover cruise terminal, Southampton cruise terminals, Liverpool cruise terminal, Bristol Portbury cruise terminal and Tilbury Docks cruise terminal.
Many people do not own a Mercedes Benz, or may not have been a passenger in 1 until we pick them up, then they feel very special and comment how much of a luxury it is to be chauffeured from A to B by someone else for a change.
Corporate clients are no different from a Mr & Mrs Smith, looking for cost effective airport transfers from an experienced company who provide a professional service 24/7 365 days a year, that usually a company like us at Derby Chauffeurs VIP, licensed by our local council authority, vehicles and drivers licensed and approved by our local council authority, insured to the highest level with public liability insurance too, VAT registered, so corporate and business clients know we are a serious and legitimate Derby chauffeur company they can trust in.
Without a doubt, Derby to Heathrow airport or Heathrow airport to Derby or Derbyshire is our biggest request, its long distance and for tired passengers arriving in the UK, comfort is important, as is a chauffeur meeting them at arrivals to offer a helping hand with luggage while guiding them to their car for a 2 to 3 hour journey depending on day and time of travel.
Gatwick airport from Derby can take 3 to 4 hours, sometimes 5 hours on a Fri rush hour, especially if there are traffic incidents, thankfully our chauffeurs utilise the latest Sat Nav technology to pre-check routes or receive updates to the route they are on, ensuring we do our best to get clients to their chosen destination on time. Accidents do unfortunately happen daily on routes so its very important that chauffeur drivers usually know alternative options to divert too.
Derby to Southampton cruise terminals and Dover cruise terminal are probably our longest runs we do frequently, cruising is growing in popularity and these people are frequently elderly and do not like to drive such long distances on unfamiliar roads, and its the reason our Mercedes Benz V-class MPV’s are well in demand. Additional luggage is often taken, and cruises are often for groups of 4 or more, so lots of luggage.
