Driver for Business Meetings
A driver for business meetings stays with you from the first address to the last, so you never look for a ride between appointments. Your bags and papers remain in the locked car, and the driver is outside when you come down. Four hours covers a morning in one district. Eight hours covers a day across the city.
How Many Hours Does a Meeting Day Need?
| YOUR DAY | BOOK | WHY |
|---|---|---|
| Two or three meetings in one district | 4 hours | The driving is short, and the car waits nearby |
| Meetings on both sides of the Bosphorus | 8 hours | A crossing at the wrong hour can use a large part of a morning |
| First meeting at nine, then dinner with a client | 8 hours, plus agreed extra time | Tell us the dinner time when you book |
| A different district every day for a week | A daily rate | We quote the week, usually with one driver |
What Should the Person Booking Tell You?
- The first address and start time
- Every address you already know, in order
- Any fixed time that cannot move, such as a flight or a board meeting
- How many people will travel, and how much luggage or display material
- Who may change the programme on the day
What Happens When the Plan Changes?
It will. A meeting ends early, a client suggests lunch in Bebek, or the next address changes in the lift. Tell the driver directly, and carry on with your day. Within the booked hours, a new order or a new address does not change the rate. If a change is likely to run past the booked hours, the driver will tell you early enough for you to decide. Our guide to moving between business districts explains where the time usually goes.
Will the Driver Wait Outside the Building?
As close as the building allows. Towers in Levent and Maslak generally have a drop-off, but not a place to wait, so your driver may hold in a nearby car park and return when you send a message. Parking fees are in the rate, and you do not need to handle them.
Common Questions
Can I Work in the Car?
Yes. Your driver will not start a conversation you do not want. If you plan to take calls, mention it, and the car will stay quiet.
Can a Colleague Join for Part of the Day?
Yes, if there is a free seat. The rate is per car, so an extra passenger costs nothing more.
Is the Rate Lower If We Finish Early?
No. The rate is for the booked block of time. That is also why a late finish within those hours costs nothing more.
