From brief to journey

The journey, step by step.

A clear sequence helps passengers and organisers know what information is needed and how the travel is planned.

    Define the hire

    Outline the starting point, expected hire period, number of passengers and the broad area of travel.

  2. 02 / 04

    Agree the framework

    Share known appointments and stops, plus where flexibility or standby time is likely to be required.

  3. 03 / 04

    The chauffeur and vehicle remain assigned for the agreed period, travelling between destinations as your schedule develops.

    Close the itinerary

    Confirm the final destination and any changes to the expected end time with sufficient notice to review availability.

Practical information

Before you travel.

The right details in advance make it easier to plan the vehicle, collection and timing around your requirements.

01

Hire period

Provide an estimated start and finish time. If the day may run longer, mention this when outlining the journey.

02

Stops and coverage

List known locations and indicate whether the route stays in Edinburgh or extends farther across Scotland.

03

Standby needs

Explain where the vehicle should wait and whether you expect the driver to remain available between appointments.

Good to know

Hourly hire allows the itinerary to evolve within the agreed arrangement; extensions and material changes depend on availability and should be discussed rather than assumed.
