A private chauffeur
in Haarlem.
A chauffeur by the hour in Haarlem: the Frans Hals Museum after breakfast, lunch on the Spaarne, the dunes at Bloemendaal in the afternoon and the Philharmonie at eight — the same car and the same person, and never a garage.
The car stays with you. So does the chauffeur.
Haarlem is a city you walk and a city you cannot park. The streets inside the old canals are narrow and mostly closed to through traffic, the garages sit at the edge of the centre and fill early on a concert night, and the best addresses — the Grote Markt, the Spaarne quays, the lanes around the Grote Kerk — are precisely the ones no car reaches. Hourly hire solves this the simple way: the chauffeur drops you at the right corner, waits where a car may wait, and is back when you message. Coats, shopping and museum bags stay on the back seat.
The days we drive here: a couple with a table on the Spaarne and a concert afterwards; a family with a morning at Teylers, a picnic in the Haarlemmerhout and the beach at Bloemendaal aan Zee until the light goes; a visiting director hosted between the Waarderpolder, a lunch in the centre and a dinner in Heemstede; golfers on their way to the Kennemer in the dunes. Companies that host in Haarlem tend to run it on an account: one number for dispatch, an invoice at the end of the month and a status line for each guest they have put in a car — see hourly chauffeur and corporate chauffeur service.
An hour of Business Class costs €65 here, an hour of Van Class €80 and an hour of First Class €100. Two hours is the shortest booking, each of those hours carries 40 kilometres — more than Haarlem, the dunes and back use up — and the clock starts and stops in the city. A day that begins in Haarlem and ends at a hotel in Amsterdam or a dinner in The Hague is quoted as one fixed amount instead, and so is the whole of a race weekend at Zandvoort.
Frans Hals in the morning, Teylers after lunch, the organ in the Grote Kerk in between — three doors within a few hundred metres and a car waiting at the edge of the pedestrian centre with the coats.
Down the Zeeweg through the dunes to Bloemendaal aan Zee, or via Heemstede to Zandvoort, with the towels in the boot and dinner back in Haarlem at eight — an afternoon that starts and ends in the city, so it runs on the hourly rate.
The Philharmonie, the Stadsschouwburg on the Wilsonsplein or the Patronaat: dropped at the door, collected on the agreed street when the last song ends, home to Heemstede or Bloemendaal in a quiet car.
Half an hour by the A5 or the Haarlemmerweg for a board meeting, the chauffeur waiting on the Gustav Mahlerlaan, and back to Haarlem for dinner — one fixed quote for the round trip.
The Kennemer Golf & Country Club lies in the dunes at Zandvoort, a short drive west: clubs in the boot, the chauffeur waiting through the round, lunch at the clubhouse and back through Haarlem — see Kennemer golf chauffeur.
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 — Haarlem to Schiphol from €68, or to any other address — are quoted as one fixed amount at booking.

Two hours. Business Class opens at €65 an hour, and every one of those hours carries 40 kilometres and whatever waiting the day needs — in a centre this closed to cars, the waiting is most of what you are paying for. The booking has to begin and finish in Haarlem; a day that ends somewhere else gets a fixed quote instead.
Not on the square itself, which is pedestrian, but close enough. The chauffeur waits at the nearest legal spot and comes back to the corner you agreed on when you send a message — that is the whole point of hiring by the hour in a centre like this one.
Yes, as long as the booking starts and ends in Haarlem. The drive through the dunes is a few kilometres each way and sits comfortably inside the 40 kilometres included per hour. A day that ends in Zandvoort or Amsterdam is quoted as one fixed amount instead.
Yes. Put the guest’s name and mobile number in the booking and your own details underneath as the booker. The confirmation goes to both of you, and so does each step after it: chauffeur en route, guest in the car, safely arrived. Dispatch stays on one number for you throughout, which matters when the pickup is a pedestrian corner near the Grote Markt.
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.
