The term black car service is widely used in the United States and other international markets to describe a pre-booked premium vehicle with a professional driver. In Manchester and across the UK, the same style of private travel is more commonly known as a chauffeur service or chauffeur-driven car.
Get Chauffeur Service provides this type of pre-arranged travel using luxury Mercedes vehicles for international visitors, business travellers, private clients and passengers requiring airport, full-day or long-distance journeys from Manchester.
Every journey is arranged in advance around the passenger, collection point, destination and itinerary rather than operating as an on-demand taxi service.
Mercedes S-Class and V-Class vehicles provide a choice for executive travel, families, groups, additional luggage and longer journeys throughout the UK.
The vehicle is driven by a professional chauffeur, with the journey planned around punctuality, discretion and a consistent private travel experience.
So whether you normally search for a black car service, private car service or chauffeur service, the underlying service is essentially the same: a premium vehicle and professional driver reserved specifically for your journey.
Our black car service is provided using luxury Mercedes vehicles selected around the number of passengers, luggage requirements and type of journey. The Mercedes S-Class is suited to executive and private travel, while the Mercedes V-Class provides considerably more space for families, groups and passengers travelling with additional luggage.
The long-wheelbase Mercedes S-Class is our flagship option for one or two passengers requiring discreet executive or private chauffeur travel.
Rear passengers benefit from reclining heated and cooled seats, privacy glass, electric rear blinds, air suspension and a quiet cabin suited to business journeys and longer-distance travel.
Luggage space is best suited to approximately two small or medium cases, so passengers travelling internationally with larger amounts of baggage may find the V-Class more appropriate.
The Mercedes V-Class provides significantly more passenger and luggage space while retaining the comfort and presentation expected from a premium chauffeur service.
It is particularly useful for families, small groups, airport arrivals, touring itineraries and international visitors travelling with several suitcases.
Conference-style seating, sliding doors, Wi-Fi and charging facilities also make the V-Class suitable for business groups and longer journeys across the UK.
Passenger numbers alone do not always determine the most suitable vehicle. For airport collections and longer UK journeys, the amount and size of luggage should also be considered before booking.
If you provide the number of passengers, approximate luggage and journey details when requesting a quote, we can advise whether the S-Class or V-Class is the more practical option.
A professional black car service is more than simply providing a vehicle between two addresses. The journey is arranged in advance, with the booking, chauffeur, vehicle and itinerary coordinated around the passenger before travel begins.
Your collection time, passenger details, destination and any important journey requirements are confirmed before travel, helping avoid uncertainty on the day of the booking.
The chauffeur arrives for the pre-arranged collection and remains focused on the passenger's itinerary, whether the booking is a single journey, several appointments or a full-day arrangement.
Booking and journey notifications can help passengers or the person arranging the travel know when the chauffeur is en route, has arrived and when the journey is complete.
Private chauffeur travel provides a discreet environment for business or personal journeys, while hourly and full-day bookings can allow the itinerary to adapt where plans change during the day.
For international visitors and business travellers in particular, having the journey arranged before travel can provide a clearer point of contact and greater continuity than organising separate vehicles throughout the day.
If somebody else is arranging the journey on behalf of the passenger, booking details and travel updates can also be coordinated around the person responsible for the itinerary.
For visitors travelling to Manchester from the United States, Canada, the Middle East and other international markets, the phrase black car service may be more familiar than the British term chauffeur service. The booking can be arranged before leaving home, with the vehicle, passenger details and itinerary confirmed in advance.
Airport collections can be arranged around the passenger's flight details, terminal, luggage requirements and onward destination before arrival in Manchester.
Collections can be arranged from Manchester hotels for business appointments, restaurants, sporting events, sightseeing or onward travel outside the city.
Families and groups travelling internationally should provide passenger numbers and approximate luggage requirements so an appropriate Mercedes vehicle can be allocated.
Manchester can also be the starting point for longer journeys to London, Edinburgh, the Lake District, North Wales and other destinations across Britain.
International bookings can be arranged in advance using your flight details, hotel, passenger numbers, luggage and approximate itinerary. If plans are still being finalised, the main journey details can be provided first and additional stops confirmed later where the booking allows.
Visitors looking for more general information about arriving, staying and travelling around Manchester can also use our dedicated international visitor guide.
Black car travel is pre-arranged rather than requested on demand. Providing a few key details allows the journey, vehicle and chauffeur requirements to be planned before the day of travel.
Provide the travel date, collection point, destination and approximate collection time. For multi-stop or full-day bookings, a rough itinerary is enough to begin with.
Tell us how many people are travelling and the approximate amount of luggage. This is especially important for airport collections, families and longer UK journeys.
A tailored quote can then be provided based on the journey, time required, vehicle and any waiting or additional stops included within the itinerary.
Once confirmed, the booking is recorded with the agreed journey details. Travel notifications can then keep you informed around the chauffeur's arrival and completion of the journey.
For full-day hire, evenings, business schedules and multi-stop journeys, you do not need every detail confirmed before requesting a quote. An approximate itinerary allows the booking to be assessed initially, with reasonable adjustments made as your schedule develops.
For a straightforward point-to-point journey, simply provide the collection, destination, date, time, passenger numbers and luggage requirements.
