Why Go Hourly? The Beauty of Total Flexibility
Let’s be honest: business trips rarely go exactly to plan. A quick coffee catch-up turns into a two-hour lunch, a meeting runs late, or a sudden opportunity pops up across town. If you’re relying on standard point-to-point transfers, you’ll spend half your day stressing about changing bookings or finding a taxi.
That’s where Elimo.ch’s “As-Directed” (hourly) chauffeur service comes in to save the day. Think of it as having your own personal driver and luxury car entirely at your disposal. Whether you’re bouncing between pitches around Zurich’s Paradeplatz, visiting embassies in Geneva, or navigating the busy streets during the WEF in Davos, this service gives you the ultimate freedom to just get things done.

Common Questions (Q&A)
What if my schedule changes at the last minute?
No problem at all! Since the car is booked for you, you don’t need to rebook anything. Just tell your chauffeur where to go next. They use live GPS to find the fastest route, so even if a meeting moves from Rue du Rhône to the other side of town, we’ve got it covered.
Is it safe to leave my laptop and bags in the car?
Absolutely. One of the best perks of booking by the hour is that you don’t have to lug your bags to every meeting. Your chauffeur stays with the vehicle the entire time, keeping a close eye on your laptops, luggage, and sensitive documents.
Can I mix an airport pickup with an hourly booking?
Yes, we do this all the time! We can pick you up from Zurich Airport (ZRH) or Geneva Airport (GVA)—tracking your flight so we’re there the moment you land—and then seamlessly transition into your hourly booking for the rest of your busy day.
