Difference Between A Driver And A Chauffeur
Whilst it might seem like a chauffeur is just the same as a taxi driver, the two are completely different. Whilst both will collect and take you to the destination you require, the service you receive will be completely different.
Understanding the difference between chauffeur drivers and taxi drivers, will help you to make a more informed decision about the type of service you want to choose. Below we go through a number of the main things that both services provide and how they differ from each other.
Level of Service
Taxi drivers are there to get the job done, their job exists to get you from A to B and back again if necessary. A driver will arrive when they are required to and will take you to a vehicle that is most likely their own. Whereas a chauffeur taxi driver is more than just a man behind the wheel, he’s a professional who’ll ensure you arrive on time and in a vehicle that represents you.
When you choose a professional chauffeur, he will carry luggage to and from the building for you. They’ll also provide you with a friendly and professional meet and greet service, that’s tailored around the chauffeur service you require. An eagle eyed chauffeur will be able to provide you with advice about the best things to see and do in the city you’re travelling in.
Training
Most taxi drivers will undergo initial training, and this is designed to ensure they are competent at driving and can provide a basic level of service to their customers. Once they have their driver license they are free to provide taxi services as they see fit.
Most chauffeurs taxi drivers will undergo extensive training that focuses on providing a high level of service as well as professional and safe driving. At Van Marle, all of our chauffeur drivers undergo thorough training to ensure they provide a high level of customer service to our clients.
