Melbourne CBD Chauffeur Services

City travel organised around your day
VHA Limos provides Melbourne CBD chauffeur services for business meetings, hotel stays, private appointments, dining and events. Travel from your home or office into the city, move between appointments, or arrange a return collection after your evening out. Your vehicle is reserved for your booking, with the route, pickup details and fare agreed before travel.
A successful city journey depends on more than the driving distance. The correct building entrance, time to come down from an office, luggage collection at a hotel and access around an event can all affect your plans. Share these details when you enquire so we can recommend an appropriate vehicle and a practical collection arrangement.
Choose a one-way transfer, a planned return journey or hourly chauffeur hire. Early-morning and late-night travel can be arranged in advance, subject to confirmed availability. For journeys beyond the city centre, explore our wider Melbourne chauffeur service.
Corporate chauffeurs for CBD meetings and executive travel
Plan your transport around the appointments that matter. VHA Limos can coordinate transfers between CBD offices, accommodation, meeting venues and Melbourne Airport, including itineraries for visiting executives, clients and colleagues. A quiet private vehicle gives you time between destinations without having to find parking or arrange a new ride at every stop.
For a meeting on Collins Street, a legal appointment around William Street or a business visit to Docklands, provide the building name as well as the street address. Large office towers may have separate pedestrian entrances, vehicle access and visitor procedures. We agree on the collection point so your traveller knows where to meet the chauffeur.
For executive assistants and travel coordinators, send the passenger’s name and contact number, your own booking contact, appointment times and any changes of vehicle or passenger group during the day. If several guests are arriving separately, identify each journey clearly rather than combining all flights and addresses into one pickup instruction.
Discuss recurring bookings, invoicing requirements and corporate arrangements with our team before confirming. Visit corporate chauffeur travel for the broader service.
One transfer, a return booking or hourly hire?
The right booking format depends on what happens between your destinations. Tell us whether the vehicle needs to remain available while you attend a meeting or whether you simply need another collection later.
Point-to-point transfers
A direct journey between agreed locations suits an office visit, hotel check-in or restaurant arrival. Tell us about additional stops before booking so the quote reflects the complete route.
Planned return journeys
Book the outward trip and return collection together when you know your schedule. Confirm the return time, address and passenger contact; a return booking does not automatically mean the chauffeur waits throughout your visit.
Hourly, as-directed hire
For a sequence of meetings, appointments or city stops, request a chauffeur for an agreed period. Confirm the minimum hire, included time, operating area and extension charges in your quotation. Changes remain subject to timing and availability.
Hotel pickups and private city transfers
Arrange a private collection from your CBD hotel, serviced apartment or residence for a meeting, airport departure, dinner or onward journey. Tell us the property name, full address and which entrance you will use. A reception address and a vehicle entrance may be on different streets, particularly at larger city properties.
Before the collection time, allow for checkout, lift access and retrieving stored luggage. Keep the nominated passenger mobile available so pickup details can be clarified if a driveway is occupied or access changes. Your chauffeur will use a suitable permitted collection point; access directly outside every doorway cannot be guaranteed.
For visitors travelling between Melbourne CBD, Southbank and Docklands, we can coordinate the journey as part of the same itinerary. These neighbouring precincts have different entrances and access arrangements, so the actual street address is more useful than a landmark alone.
Booking for another person? Include their preferred contact number and let them know the agreed pickup instructions. Explore our hotel transfer service for more accommodation travel options.
Melbourne CBD areas and pickup planning
We arrange collections across central Melbourne and nearby business, hotel and entertainment precincts. Use the locations below to help describe your journey; the final meeting point is confirmed for your booking and the access available at the time.
Collins Street, Bourke Street & Flinders Lane
For offices, shopping and dining, send the venue name and street number. Laneway venues may require a nearby collection point with vehicle access.
William Street & the western CBD
For business towers and legal appointments, allow time to leave the building and specify the visitor or passenger entrance. Tell us if the finish time may change.
Spring Street & the eastern CBD
For hotels, theatres and private functions, confirm the venue entrance and expected finish time. Plan a separate return pickup if your evening has a fixed schedule.
Southbank, South Wharf & Docklands
For accommodation, waterfront dining and conferences, provide the property or venue entrance. Large precincts can have multiple access points a considerable walk apart.
Street works, event closures and local access controls can change collection arrangements. For public city information, see the City of Melbourne. Follow the pickup instructions confirmed for your journey rather than assuming the chauffeur can wait at the nearest corner.
CBD to Melbourne Airport transfers
Combine your city stay with a private transfer to or from Melbourne Airport. For a departure, provide your terminal, flight time and airline check-in requirement, together with the hotel or office pickup address. The pickup time should allow for traffic, luggage loading and terminal access; a single advertised travel time cannot account for every journey.
For an arrival into Melbourne, share the flight number, passenger contact, destination and luggage requirements. Flight monitoring helps coordinate the collection with updated arrival information. Meet & Greet is available by arrangement, with the meeting process and waiting terms confirmed before travel.
Our dedicated Melbourne Airport transfers page explains airport travel, Meet & Greet and waiting allowances. Use the airport pickup and arrival guide to prepare for your collection, and check the official Melbourne Airport website for terminal information.
Choose a vehicle for the people and luggage travelling
A vehicle should suit the whole journey, not just the passenger count. Tell us how many adults and children are travelling, the number and approximate size of suitcases, and whether you have a pram, mobility aid or other bulky item. Available space changes when child restraints and larger bags are added.
Mercedes S-Class & European sedans
A refined choice for individual business travellers, couples and private appointments. Request an S-Class if that model matters to your booking; vehicle allocation is subject to availability and confirmation.
Mercedes GLE SUV
A comfortable option for private city journeys and smaller family groups. Discuss luggage and child-seat needs before selecting the vehicle so the arrangement is suitable.
Mercedes V-Class
Consider a people mover when travelling with colleagues, family or more luggage. Confirm the passenger seating layout and bag requirements rather than assuming every seat can be occupied with full luggage.
Mercedes Sprinter
For larger groups and coordinated event travel, ask about a Sprinter or multiple vehicles. Passenger and luggage capacity depends on the vehicle configuration confirmed for the booking.
See the VHA Limos fleet and tell us your preferred vehicle. Images show vehicle styles; the specific model and configuration are confirmed with your quotation.
Family travel and child seats
Make family travel easier by arranging the child restraints and luggage space before pickup. Rear-facing infant seats, forward-facing child seats and boosters can be requested. Provide each child’s age and any relevant height or restraint information so our team can discuss the appropriate arrangement.
Baby seats are A$15 each. The first baby seat is free only with a Mercedes V-Class booking; additional seats are A$15 each. Seats and vehicles must be requested in advance and confirmed as part of the booking. See our baby seat transfer service for further details.
If a passenger needs extra time to enter or exit the vehicle, tell us when enquiring. Describe any mobility aid and assistance needed so suitability can be checked before confirmation. Please do not assume a standard sedan, SUV or van offers wheelchair access.
Conferences, dining and evening events
Arrive together for a conference, performance, celebration or dinner, then travel home with a return plan already in place. VHA Limos can arrange city transfers and group transport for venues in and around the CBD, including the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre precinct, Southbank and Docklands.
Event transport benefits from precise instructions. Send the venue, event start and likely finish time, passenger numbers and the name of one contact for each vehicle. For several cars, identify which passengers travel together and whether everyone leaves at the same time. This helps avoid an unclear collection point or a vehicle waiting for the wrong group.
Busy events may involve temporary road closures or designated passenger zones. Your agreed collection location may differ from your arrival entrance. Keep the booking contact available and tell us promptly if the programme runs late or you need an earlier departure.
For a wedding itinerary, explore our wedding transfer service. For a private day out beyond the city, see our winery tours and discuss your planned stops.
Your CBD chauffeur quote: what to confirm
We quote for the journey you actually need. The fare depends on the pickup and destination, travel date and time, vehicle, passengers, additional stops and any period of hire. A short distance with several stops or extended waiting can require a different booking from a direct transfer.
- Itinerary: confirm every pickup, destination, stop and return collection.
- Vehicle: check the agreed category or requested model, passenger space and luggage arrangement.
- Inclusions: check GST, tolls, parking and any airport or venue access charges in your quote.
- Extras: confirm child seats, additional waiting, extra distance and hourly extensions where relevant.
- Booking terms: review payment arrangements and the cancellation or amendment terms supplied with confirmation.
For home and hotel pickups, the first 15 minutes of waiting are included, followed by A$3 per minute. For office collections, intermediate stops and hourly bookings, confirm the applicable allowance in your quotation. Airport waiting follows the separate terms on our airport transfer page.
If the itinerary changes after booking, contact us so any change to the fare, vehicle or timing can be confirmed. A submitted enquiry is a request for availability and pricing; it becomes a booking when VHA Limos confirms the arrangements.
How to book your Melbourne CBD chauffeur
- Send your journey details. Include the date, pickup time, exact addresses, passengers, luggage and preferred vehicle. Add flight details for an airport trip and child-seat needs where relevant.
- Review the proposed arrangements. Check the fare, inclusions, pickup entrance, return plan and any waiting or hire conditions. Let us know about the requirements of the person travelling if you are booking on their behalf.
- Confirm and prepare for collection. Keep your confirmation and nominated phone available. Be ready at the agreed location and advise us if your itinerary changes.
Metro pickups must be confirmed at least 3 hours before pickup. Regional Victoria collections require confirmation 6–7 hours ahead. Book earlier for major events, specific vehicle requests, child seats or multiple cars. Availability remains subject to confirmation.
Melbourne CBD chauffeur FAQs
Can I book a chauffeur for several CBD meetings?
Yes. Send the full itinerary, appointment times and expected waiting periods. We can discuss hourly hire or separate transfers and confirm the booking format, included time and extension terms that suit your day.
Can you pick me up outside my hotel or office?
Provide the building and entrance details when booking. We agree on a suitable permitted pickup point. If driveway access, road works or event restrictions prevent collection at the entrance, the meeting arrangement may need to change.
Do you provide transfers from the suburbs into Melbourne CBD?
Yes. You can request a private transfer from a Melbourne home, office or accommodation address into the CBD, with a return journey if required. Send both addresses and the travel times for an accurate quote.
Is Melbourne CBD chauffeur travel available early or late?
Early-morning and late-night journeys can be arranged as pre-booked services, subject to confirmed vehicle and chauffeur availability. Please book ahead; submitting an enquiry does not guarantee immediate dispatch.
Can I request a Mercedes GLE, S-Class, V-Class or Sprinter?
Yes. Tell us the vehicle you prefer, passenger numbers, luggage and any child seats. We confirm the available model or category and its suitability before your booking is finalised.
Can you arrange transport for visiting clients or a group?
Yes. Provide a passenger list or a clear allocation for each vehicle, the traveller contact details and the coordinator’s number. Discuss invoicing and any special requirements before confirming the itinerary.
