Frequently asked questions about the VIP chauffeur service
What is the difference between a security driver and a chauffeur?
A chauffeur gets you to your destination. A security driver plans the route, stops and drop-off points as part of the protection plan, keeps an eye on the surroundings and coordinates arrival and departure with the close protection team.
Is the chauffeur service also available without close protection?
The VIP chauffeur service is part of the protection plan and is usually combined with escort protection or close protection. We will discuss with you what suits your occasion.
Does DERLO handle airport transfers?
Yes, for example between Cologne Bonn Airport or Düsseldorf Airport, your hotel and your appointment, with a coordinated arrival and short walking distances.
Which vehicle do you drive?
As a rule, we drive the client's own vehicle. If none is available, we agree with you in advance which vehicle suits the occasion and the number of passengers.
How much does the VIP chauffeur service cost?
That depends on the duration, the routes, the times of day and whether it is combined with close protection. After the consultation you receive a fixed quote.
Who plans the journeys?
Marc Derlich plans the journeys and the protective escort as one, so that route, arrival and escort are aligned. He brings complementary experience from several driver safety training courses.
