A private chauffeur
in Groningen.
A chauffeur who stays with you in Groningen: from the Hoofdstation to the UMCG, from Zernike to a lunch on the Vismarkt, an afternoon at Europapark and dinner behind the Martinikerk — one car, one contact, and no parking to solve inside the Diepenring.
The car stays with you. So does the chauffeur.
Groningen is compact, but its institutions sit on its edges — the hospital to the east of the old town, the campus on the northern ring, the offices and the convention halls to the south — and the historic heart between them is closed to most traffic. A chauffeur on hourly hire waits at each stop, keeps coats, bags and laptops on the back seat between meetings, and knows which access streets are open at which hour. You walk out of the door and the car is there.
Much of our work in the city is with groups on a programme: a delegation touring the energy companies and the Eemshaven, a visiting committee at the university, a medical team at the UMCG for a week. One chauffeur for the whole stay learns the names, the hotel and the order of the days. Hourly hire starts at €65 per hour and must begin and end in Groningen; a day that ends in Leeuwarden, Zwolle or at Schiphol is quoted instead as one fixed amount, stops included.
Companies that book regularly get invoicing through a corporate account and a direct line to dispatch. When you book for a colleague or a guest, the confirmation and each status update — chauffeur en route, guest in the car, safely arrived — go to you both, so nobody in the north or at head office has to ask where the car is. The corporate chauffeur service page explains how accounts work.
Consultations overrun and results take time. The chauffeur waits nearby, drives the family back to the hotel and returns for the patient, on the hour or by message, with the waiting part of the hourly rate.
A researcher’s day: a seminar on the campus, a meeting at the Academiegebouw, the Groninger Museum in the gap and dinner on the Vismarkt, with one car moving between the ring road and the edge of the centre.
From a hotel in the city out along the N46 to the port, the car waiting at the gate while the group tours the site, and back for dinner. It starts and ends in Groningen, so it can run by the hour.
Dropped at the door, collected at the door, no walk to the Europapark platform and no taxi rank after the final whistle.
The fortress village of Bourtange, the seal centre at Pieterburen, the Lauwersmeer or the Wadden dyke — a loop out of Groningen and back, planned with the chauffeur the evening before.
Hourly hire starts at 2 hours, includes 40 km per hour and begins and ends in the same city. For days that cross into other cities we prepare one fixed quote instead.
Point-to-point rides — Groningen to Schiphol from €684, or to any other address — are quoted as one fixed amount at booking.

Two hours, from €65 per hour in Business Class, €80 in Van Class and €100 in First Class, with 40 kilometres included in each hour. The booking has to start and end in Groningen; a loop out to the Eemshaven and back qualifies, a one-way ride to Leeuwarden does not and is quoted as a fixed ride instead.
Yes, and it is the arrangement we recommend for delegations in Groningen. Send the programme — arrival at Schiphol, the hotel, the site visits, the dinners — to dispatch on WhatsApp and you receive one fixed quote for the whole stay. Multi-day arrangements are always quoted individually.
Yes. On hourly hire the waiting is part of the booking, not an extra: the chauffeur stays close to the Hanzeplein and returns to the entrance when you message. For very long waits we agree a plan with you in advance so the car is where it is useful.
Yes, around the clock, subject to a car and chauffeur being available in the north at that hour. Bookings made within twelve hours of the pickup carry a short-notice surcharge of ten percent; everything else — the fixed price, the free cancellation up to one hour before pickup — is unchanged.
As one fixed all-in amount, agreed before the car moves: Schiphol transfers at a fixed rate per class, hourly hire from €65 per hour, and other point-to-point rides quoted per kilometre. Taxes are included and there is no surcharge for paying by card.
