LOCALLY OWNED EXPERTISE
Discover New Zealand, Privately and Personally
Exclusive Driver offers private luxury tours and chauffeur transfers throughout Christchurch and the South Island. Whether you are seeking a refined day tour, a multi-day journey, or a seamless private transfer, your experience is entirely yours.
Based in Christchurch, we specialise in personalised travel without the crowds. You travel with one professional driver in one luxury vehicle for the duration of your journey.
There are no tour bus schedules to follow and no signage drawing attention. Just extraordinary landscapes experienced at the right pace.
CURATED JOURNEYS
Remarkable Experiences
New Zealand is best experienced without rush or noise. Our private journeys are thoughtfully designed to reveal both the iconic and the unexpected, allowing time to truly absorb each setting.
Private Day Tours From Christchurch
Our South Island day tours depart from Christchurch and are designed for depth rather than distance. From alpine scenery and high country stations to coastal towns, wildlife encounters and boutique wine regions, each journey is thoughtfully curated.
Travel at your own pace. Pause for a longer lunch. Take the scenic detour. Linger where the view asks you to stay.
Every day is shaped around you.
Multi Day South Island Tours
This is not about racing through a country.
It is about settling into it.
Our private multi-day tours from Christchurch and Queenstown balance iconic landscapes with quieter discoveries. From Aoraki Mount Cook and Lake Tekapo to the West Coast, Milford Sound and beyond, every route is carefully refined.
Whether two days or thirteen, your itinerary flows naturally with every detail managed discreetly behind the scenes.
THOUGHTFUL TRANSFERS
Private Chauffeur Transfers Across the South Island
We believe transfers should feel like part of the journey.
Arrive relaxed and inspired with private chauffeur transfers between Christchurch, Queenstown, Lake Tekapo, Aoraki Mount Cook, Te Anau and Milford Sound.
Unlike standard transport services, we offer the option to include scenic stops along the way. A transfer becomes an experience rather than simply transport.
We specialise in private transfers for individuals, couples and small groups who value comfort, discretion and time.
