How much does a chauffeur for your own car cost in Prague?

An hour with Jiří Horčička at the wheel of your car is CZK 750 (about €31), with a four-hour minimum. A full day (10 hours) is CZK 7,000; multi-day trips are CZK 6,500 a day. Prices are fixed and agreed in advance, with no meter and no deposit. The full list is on the rates page.

Do you have a car of your own?

No. Jiří Horčička drives his clients’ own cars only. You pay for the person at the wheel, not for a car you already own. No suitable car? I’ll help you arrange a short-term rental in your name.

Will you cover for our personal driver?

Yes. When your driver is ill or on holiday, I step in — from a single day to several weeks, in your car and keeping to your routine. No one around you need notice a stand-in.

What cars can you drive?

I drive clients’ cars from compacts to full-size limousines, manual and automatic. I have experience with an S-Class, a Porsche and their like, and I treat the entrusted car as it deserves — from parking to a smooth drive.

How is the car handed over?

I come to you, take the keys and the car, and we agree where the drive ends and where to return the car — home, to the garage, to the family. I return it in the state it was handed over.

What if I don’t have a car?

Then I’ll help you arrange a short-term rental in your name; leave the driving and the whole programme to me. I offer no car of my own.

Can you drive me to the airport and return the car home?

Yes. I drive you to the airport in your car and return it wherever you say. On arrival I wait in the hall, help with luggage and bring you home in your car — so the car never sits for days in an airport car park.

Is a private chauffeur the same as a taxi?

No. Carrying passengers, I drive under the passenger-vehicle taxi regime — I hold a road-transport licence and a taxi-driver’s permit, but with no meter: the price is agreed in advance. You book a specific person, not an anonymous ride.

Can you come today?

Subject to availability, yes. A same-day booking carries a 20% surcharge; otherwise a day’s notice is ideal. I confirm every booking in writing with a fixed price.

How is discretion guaranteed?

Confidentiality is standard and an NDA is signed on request. I do not talk about clients, photograph them, or mention them in marketing. Discretion is part of the service, not an extra.

How is payment handled?

By card, bank transfer, or cash in koruna or euro. Companies receive an invoice with 14-day terms. New clients pay in advance or on the spot. There is no deposit to pay.

What are the cancellation terms?

Free more than 48 hours before the booking, 50% between 24 and 48 hours, 100% under 24 hours. No deposit is paid in advance.

Why choose one chauffeur over a company?

Because you know the name and face of your driver in advance, and on the day you book Jiří Horčička has no other client. One person, one responsibility, no dispatch desk or rotating drivers.
