Private driver and chauffeur service in Bern

Provide the exact hotel or address so the chauffeur can plan the most practical drop-off. Much of Bern’s Old Town is a pedestrian zone with limited vehicle access, so hotels along the arcaded lanes are approached via agreed access routes and the chauffeur brings you as close to the entrance as the city allows.

After the airport transfer, Driveguard can keep a private driver and vehicle at your disposal in Bern for meetings at the Federal Palace or the embassies, appointments in the Wankdorf business district, events at BERNEXPO, sightseeing, shopping and multi-stop itineraries. The private chauffeur and limousine service in Bern also covers onward journeys to Thun and Lake Thun, Interlaken, Gruyères, Gstaad and the Emmental, as well as intercity transfers from Bern to Zurich, Basel or Geneva.

Major holidays and special events may carry a supplement, communicated via email after the booking request. Bookings cancelled more than 24 hours before pickup can be cancelled without a fee. Later cancellations and no-shows are charged according to the Terms and Conditions.
