The Square Mile, in First Class
The City of London — the "Square Mile" — is where the capital began and where its business still beats. Founded by the Romans as Londinium around AD 47, it grew into the medieval home of the great guilds, survived the Great Fire of 1666, and rose again under Sir Christopher Wren, whose St Paul's Cathedral has crowned the skyline ever since. Today, glass towers stand beside Wren churches and Roman walls, and the world's deals are done in its streets. Moving through it deserves a chauffeur service in London as composed and precise as the City itself.
First Class Chauffeurs offers exactly that: a vetted personal chauffeur, a luxury car suited to the occasion, and a service built around your schedule rather than ours. Whether you are in the City for meetings, a roadshow, sightseeing or a hotel stay, every detail is handled with discretion.
Business in the Square Mile
The City is built for business, and so is our service. For business meetings, board sessions and multi-stop financial roadshows, your chauffeur keeps every appointment to the minute while the car serves as a discreet mobile office between Bank, Bishopsgate and Liverpool Street. For arriving delegations and clients, a professional chauffeur sets the right tone from the first handshake — and with a personal chauffeur booked by the hour or the day, your itinerary stays entirely in your hands.
Where Our City Chauffeurs Take You
Beyond the markets, the Square Mile holds two thousand years of history — best explored at the weekend, when the streets fall quiet. See St Paul's Cathedral and its famous Whispering Gallery, the Tower of London and the Crown Jewels, the medieval Guildhall, the Victorian splendour of Leadenhall Market and the modern icon of the Gherkin. For a fuller route through the capital's landmarks, our London sightseeing tours take it all in, with your chauffeur handling parking, waiting and timing throughout.
Airport Transfers and Hotels
For airport transfers to and from Heathrow, Gatwick or nearby London City Airport, we monitor your flight and offer optional Meet & Greet for a seamless arrival. The City and its surrounds also hold some of London's most distinctive hotels; through our hotel booking service we can arrange your stay as an independent provider, and our concierge service can secure priority restaurant reservations and event access across the Square Mile.
The Fleet for the City
The right car completes the impression. The Mercedes-Benz S-Class seats up to three passengers in serene comfort and is the executive standard; the all-electric BMW i7 adds silent, sustainable motoring well suited to the City's clean-air streets. For delegations or groups, the Mercedes-Benz V-Class carries up to seven, while the Range Rover Autobiography brings commanding presence for up to four. For client entertaining and grand arrivals, nothing rivals the Mercedes-Maybach or the Rolls-Royce Ghost. Every car is impeccably maintained and driven by a professional chauffeur trained in discretion. International visitors can settle in cryptocurrency, and Long Day Saving applies on journeys of ten hours or more.
