A day of back-to-back meetings
Three appointments, a meeting in the suburbs, a business lunch. Your chauffeur waits at every stop, and the time in between stays yours. Wi-Fi on the move for your emails, quiet for your confidential calls.
Your chauffeur, your car, your time. Absolute discretion, punctuality written into the contract, transparent pricing. From a single business meeting to a tour lasting several days, one Parisian maison orchestrates every journey. English-speaking chauffeurs as standard.
“Contemporary luxury isn't about the car. It's about silence, precision and availability.” From €95/h in a premium Mercedes.
A chauffeur and Mercedes booked by the hour, in Paris and the Île-de-France region: €95/h in an E-Class, €135/h in a 7-seat V-Class and €165/h in an S-Class, with a 3-hour minimum; 4-hour (€380 in an E-Class) and 8-hour (€720) packages. 40 km are included per hour booked.

Pay by card when you book (companies can pay by bank transfer within 30 days of invoice). Cancellation follows our terms and conditions: 80% is refunded if you cancel more than 48 hours before pick-up.

More human than the ride-hailing platforms, more approachable than the established institutions, more exacting than the rest. The discretion of a butler, the precision of a watchmaker, the convenience of an app.
Precellence began with a simple observation. On one side, standardised ride-hailing services built for volume; on the other, traditional firms that are rigid and inward-looking. What was missing was a contemporary maison for private chauffeur service: one where precision meets elegance, where discretion is practised rather than proclaimed, and where modernity never comes at the expense of service. A French maison, built for Paris first and open to London, Istanbul and the world.
It comes down to three words: chauffeur, car, time. A trained chauffeur, briefed on your requirements and assigned to you for the whole booking. A Mercedes under four years old, with a leather interior, Wi-Fi, water and chargers. And time that we protect rather than count. An hourly chauffeur is about rhythm first, minutes second.
Every hourly booking begins with a conversation with a real person: about your day, your stops, your constraints and your expectations. We then assign the chauffeur whose profile best matches your request — languages, experience, preferred sector, familiarity with protocol. Before you arrive, they receive a written brief with addresses, names and preferences. When you arrive, everything is ready. You get in, get to work and get on with your day.
Contemporary luxury isn't something you announce; it's something you notice. Your chauffeur at the pick-up point fifteen minutes early — a contractual commitment. Two direct numbers: your chauffeur, and a single point of contact for all your requests. A proper VAT invoice, and support during the day. The freedom to extend, change or reschedule without fuss. And no chatbot: a real person answers, during the day.
You're not booking hours — you're booking a day that works. Here are the six situations behind most of our hourly bookings.
Three appointments, a meeting in the suburbs, a business lunch. Your chauffeur waits at every stop, and the time in between stays yours. Wi-Fi on the move for your emails, quiet for your confidential calls.
The Triangle d'Or, Le Marais, Saint-Germain. Your chauffeur drops you off, waits, and is ready to go again when you are. Your purchases stay safe in the boot. A whole day in Paris at your own pace, with no parking to worry about.
Town hall, church, drinks reception, dinner. A matching fleet, chauffeurs in formal attire, everything coordinated through a single point of contact. Your most important day, without the logistics. A firm quote, with payment at the time of booking.
You're flying in from London, New York, Riyadh or Istanbul. Your English-speaking chauffeur meets you at CDG, drives you between appointments, takes you to dinner in the evening and back to your hotel afterwards. Multilingual, fully briefed, entirely self-reliant.
Fashion Week, the Croisette in Cannes, the big Paris event weeks: several vehicles deployed, a single point of contact for all your requests, a separate briefing for each fashion house. Absolute confidentiality (NDA on request).
An artist on tour, a travelling seminar, a holiday across several cities. One chauffeur, several days, several cities. Coordination of travel between cities included.
Contemporary luxury isn't shy about its prices: it stands by them. Here is our complete rate card for an hourly chauffeur. No surcharge, day or night, at weekends or on public holidays.

No grey areas. Here is everything our packages include, the complimentary extras available on request, and any supplements that may apply.
Online, a chauffeur at your disposal is booked by the hour (3 hours minimum), by the half-day or by the day; a week or a month is priced on quote. For a week, a month or a recurring assignment, a dedicated chauffeur is arranged on quote: we agree the vehicle, the hours per day and the mileage with you, then the price is confirmed in writing before you pay. This arrangement is not bookable online.
What a chauffeur at your disposal includes: blocks of 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 or 12 hours, 40 km included per hour, extra hours at the same hourly rate, per started hour; fuel and tolls included. For example, an 8-hour day: €720 in an E-Class, €1,010 in a V-Class, €1,255 in an S-Class.
Beyond the driving, your Precellence chauffeur and our team act as a discreet extension of your own concierge. Here is what we take care of, at no extra cost, within the reasonable scope of a day.
Tailored suggestions (Michelin-starred restaurants, hidden gems, palace hotels), a direct call to the maître d'hôtel, confirmation of your time.
We deal directly with your hotel's concierge — Plaza Athénée, Le Bristol, Le Ritz, Le Crillon, Peninsula, Mandarin Oriental, George V, Lutetia. Luggage collection and delivery to the reception desk, return airport transfers coordinated with the hotel.
Avenue Montaigne, rue Saint-Honoré, Faubourg Saint-Germain: your chauffeur drops you at the door and waits while you shop. On request, we let the boutique know you are on your way.
Gifts collected from the great maisons and delivered to your home or hotel, flowers delivered on your behalf — all while you are in meetings.
A scenic drive past Notre-Dame, the Île Saint-Louis and the Pont-Neuf, a discreet tour of the palaces of Paris, or a sunset photo stop at the Eiffel Tower. Your chauffeur plans the route around your mood.
The opera, Roland-Garros, Longchamp: your chauffeur takes you there, waits and brings you back, with timings arranged with your assistant.
All of these services are included in your hourly package, within what a typical day reasonably involves. No hidden commission on bookings made in your name.
It's the first thing a discerning client asks. Here is our answer: a transparent look at how we work, rather than stock photos.
A valid professional private-hire licence, a clean criminal record and checked references.
A confidentiality agreement (NDA) signed on request. In-house training in the codes of luxury service: bearing, a respectful distance, protocol, dealing with the press, the art of silence.
For every hourly booking, we choose a chauffeur to match your request: languages (English for all; Spanish, Arabic, Turkish, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian on request), preferred sector (palace hotels, executives, events, families) and experience.
Before you arrive, your chauffeur receives a detailed brief: passenger name, addresses, times, stated preferences and any particular constraints. Nothing is left to improvisation at pick-up.
On request, the same chauffeur for your entire stay — or all year round for companies. They get to know your habits, your regular stops and your pace.
Each model is chosen for a specific purpose. All our vehicles are under four years old, checked before every booking and equipped with Wi-Fi, water and chargers.

The benchmark for business travel by the hour. Comfort, discretion, versatility. Ideal for days of back-to-back meetings, executive travel and airport pick-ups.

The ultimate VIP experience. Reclining rear seats, touchscreen, advanced sound insulation. For international travellers and occasions where image matters.

Family holidays, teams on the move, delegations. Facing seats and room to work. Generous luggage space for longer stays.

Sustainable travel, absolute silence, unrestricted access to the Paris low-emission zones. Electric restraint as a form of refinement, not a compromise.

For occasions where the car is part of the show: a prestige wedding, a product launch, a VIP arrival. Quoted individually according to model, duration and time of year.
High-end events are where we excel. A single point of contact for all your requests, and a separate briefing for each fashion house.
For the most important day of all. Several vehicles coordinated, chauffeurs in formal attire, routes planned in advance. Cars can be dressed with fabric ribbons or discreet rosettes. A firm quote, with payment at the time of booking.
From €1,200 for 4-6 hours
At the busiest times of year: up to 20 vehicles running at once and a single point of contact for all your requests. Absolute confidentiality, NDA on request. A separate briefing for each fashion house.
