Chauffeur Service for Business Travel

Chauffeur service for business travelers is available in many larger cities around the world and is one of the most convenient ways to make meetings, conferences, and client lunches better. Business travelers must always be on time, and the best way to accomplish this is with a Thai chauffeur service through Drive Car Rental. We offer chauffeur services in Bangkok and Phuket and rental options in major cities across Thailand. 

Mobility in Bangkok and Phuket

Business commuting in Bangkok and Phuket can be difficult, especially during rush hour. During tourist high season from November to April, road traffic capacity is at its maximum. 

Bangkok is renowned for its heavy traffic, complex road network, and abundance of one-way streets. A local chauffeur who understands Bangkok’s labyrinth can be very helpful.

Phuket has its own difficulties because of the island’s mountainous geography. Only a few roads go across the mountain range that runs down the middle of the island, and mistiming a departure can mean thirty minutes lost to traffic. The roads that ring the island’s exterior can also be packed, especially in the popular Patong Beach tourist district.  

Swap Travel Time for Work Time

Having a private chauffeur means being able to work from the climate-controlled comfort of a Drive Car Rental vehicle while en route to meetings and conferences. Business travelers can take phone calls, send emails, and check for updates on the day’s activities. Throughout the day, this time can accumulate into several hours that would otherwise be spent in the driver’s seat.

Beyond providing more time to be present, having a chauffeur can help you be more mentally prepared on arrival. Those who drive throughout the day are subject to the mental fatigue and stress of navigating Bangkok’s streets. It’s far better to arrive relaxed and refreshed for any meetings!

Reliable Punctuality 

In the world of business, arriving late is not just seen as inconvenient; it can be seen as inconsiderate of others’ time. Late arrivals also compress agendas and reduce valuable work time for both the business traveler and their client. 

Having local, professional knowledge of the city’s layout is critical to arriving on time. Skilled drivers understand which roads to avoid at certain times of the day and which detours to use when traffic gets rough. These are secrets that only a seasoned driver in Bangkok or Phuket would know. 

Added together, these skills help drivers get clients to destinations on time, every time. This means more face-to-face time with clients to secure financing, close a deal, or chat with a business associate. 

First Impressions Matter

Many travellers ask, “Is chauffeur service worth the cost?” Of course, this depends on the customer’s budget and itinerary. For many travelling business professionals, the cost is minuscule when compared with the benefits. 

Arriving in style with a private driver in a luxury SUV sets a tone from the very moment you step out of your vehicle. It informs the client that you respect them and value their time and business. 

In Asia, business is often conducted between parties based on who one knows. Outsiders may be viewed with caution and can be kept at arm’s length until they prove themselves. A private luxury vehicle can go a long way towards easing concerns about doing business with a foreigner.

We also offer a variety of vehicles to rent. We have electrics, SUVs, sedans, luxury vehicles, and more. Those who book early receive an early bird discount. To ensure the best selection of vehicles and rates, those arriving in the tourist high season are encouraged to book as far in advance as possible.
