Here at Concierge Limousine in Los Angeles we are very proud of our service and work very hard to ensure all our clients receive the kind of transport experience they deserve, and that is accomplished through using our highly trained and experienced chauffeurs. Many people tend to interchange the term driver and chauffeur as though they mean the same thing, but the reality is somewhat different, and explaining that explains the kind of service we provide.

The major difference between a driver and chauffeur is training, chauffeurs have extensive training in multiple vehicle types that enable them to provide safe, efficient and enjoyable transport at all times in all conditions. The training is focused on driving to suit the passengers and their experience, and this is the core of the difference between a driver and a chauffeur when you are a passenger in their car.

As a passenger in a chauffeur driven car, the car is driven to maximize your experience, to avoid bumps and jolts and let you enjoy a calm, luxurious journey. A driver is there to get you from A to B, a chauffeur gets you where you want to go, but is there to ensure your needs are met. Opening the doors for you, loading baggage, going a scenic route if you wish to, the chauffeur is providing a transport experience to enjoy, rather than just transport.

Chauffeurs are also highly professional in all they do, pride in the service that they provide comes naturally from the hard work involved to pass the rigorous training, and your chauffeur will always look the part, smartly uniformed, discrete and trustworthy in everything they do. Our chauffeurs are also skilled in many areas, and are able to offer assistance in numerous tasks that may come up in your journey.

We believe that it is the chauffeur’s dedication and training, pride in the service and their driving skill that really make a journey special, and while many will argue the fact, one trip with a professional chauffeur and you will know there is a difference between them and a driver as well.
