A private chauffeur
in Leiden.
A chauffeur who stays with you in Leiden: from the LUMC to a lecture on the Rapenburg, lunch on the Nieuwe Rijn, a laboratory tour on the Bio Science Park and dinner in Oegstgeest — one car, one chauffeur, and no search for a space under the Lammermarkt.
The car stays with you. So does the chauffeur.
Leiden is small on foot and awkward by car. The canals divide it, the bridges and one-way streets decide the route, and the institutions that bring people here — the hospital and the science park by the station, the university along the Rapenburg, the museums on both — are far enough apart in the rain. A chauffeur on hourly hire, from €65 per hour, waits at each stop, keeps the coats and the conference bags on the back seat, and knows the nearest point a car may stand to every door you name.
The bookings we see most are programmes rather than rides: a pharma delegation moving between two companies on the Bio Science Park, the LUMC and a hotel; a visiting professor with the Academiegebouw in the morning, the Old Observatory after lunch and a dinner at the Stadsgehoorzaal; a family with tickets for Naturalis, the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden and the Lakenhal in one day. One chauffeur for the whole programme means one person who knows the order of the day and where the car should be next.
Beyond the city the same car goes to Keukenhof, the dunes at Katwijk, the beach at Noordwijk or the museums of The Hague. A loop that begins and ends in Leiden runs by the hour, 40 kilometres included per hour; a day that finishes in Amsterdam, Rotterdam or at Schiphol is quoted as one fixed amount. Corporate bookers get invoicing on account and status updates for every guest they book — chauffeur en route, guest in the car, safely arrived — through the corporate chauffeur service.
A delegation’s day between laboratories, the hospital and a lunch in the centre, with one V-Class or two sedans moving together and one line to dispatch.
Academiegebouw, Hortus botanicus, the Old Observatory and Museum Boerhaave in one afternoon — the chauffeur waits at the Rapenburg end while you walk the last hundred metres.
Keukenhof at opening, lunch on the beach at Noordwijk, the dunes at Katwijk on the way back — a loop out of Leiden and back that runs by the hour, planned the night before with the chauffeur.
Naturalis in the morning, the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden after lunch, the Lakenhal if legs allow — the car carries the pushchair and the coats between them.
Twenty minutes down the A44 to the Mauritshuis, the Peace Palace or an embassy on the Lange Voorhout, the chauffeur waiting, and back to Leiden for dinner — see The Hague.
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 — Leiden to Schiphol from €137, or to any other address — are quoted as one fixed amount at booking.

Yes, as long as the day starts and ends in Leiden. Lisse, Katwijk and Noordwijk are all a short drive away, well inside the kilometres included in a morning or an afternoon by the hour, and the chauffeur waits at the gardens or the beach for as long as you are there.
Yes — waiting is what hourly hire is for. The chauffeur stays close to the Bio Science Park and is at the entrance when you message, with the car warm and the bags where you left them.
Yes. Send the week’s programme to dispatch on WhatsApp — the arrival at Schiphol, the hotel, the daily addresses, the dinners — and it comes back as one quote covering the lot. A stay of several days is always costed on its own merits, and both the booker and the guest get the status messages.
Daily. Amsterdam is about forty-five minutes up the A4, Rotterdam a little under an hour down it, and both are quoted as one fixed amount per car when you book. Our city-to-city page lists the longer routes.
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.
