Private Chauffeur to Auteuil Racecourse

Jump racing at the edge of the Bois de Boulogne, done properly — drop-off at the gates, a chauffeur on call through the card, and a guaranteed car after the last race. From your hotel, your home or straight from CDG and Orly, for racegoers, owners, box guests and Grand Steeple weekend visitors.

Book your chauffeur ↗

Auteuil is the temple of French jump racing — steeple-chases and hurdles run over famous obstacles like the rivière des tribunes, the water jump right in front of the stands. The racecourse sits at the southern tip of the Bois de Boulogne, by porte d'Auteuil in the 16th, wrapped in trees and hemmed in by Roland-Garros next door: on race days the surrounding car parks saturate, the porte d'Auteuil interchange clogs, and no taxi cruises the Bois. Your chauffeur drops you at the entrance before the first race and is standing at the agreed gate the moment the last one is run — even when an autumn card ends at dusk.

A chauffeur who knows race days at Auteuil

Private chauffeur opening the car door for guests arriving at Auteuil racecourse

The right way in — via porte d'Auteuil from the périphérique or through the 16th from central Paris, chosen on the day's traffic, and rerouted when Roland-Garros locks up the sector in late May.
Drop-off at the entrance, avenue de la Porte-d'Auteuil side — no car park queue, no long walk through the Bois in race-day shoes.
Central Paris in 15–20 min, CDG in 45–60, Orly in 35–45 — pickup timed to the first race you want to see.
Late return guaranteed — after the last race, the winner's enclosure or a final glass overlooking the water jump, your car is at the gate, lights on in the November dusk.

To the gates of Auteuil — at a fixed price

Most of our Auteuil rides start in three places. From central Paris — the Champs-Élysées hotels, the triangle d'or, Saint-Germain — it is a 15-to-20-minute run to porte d'Auteuil, and your chauffeur arrives with margin so you are trackside before the first race. From Paris-CDG, count 45 to 60 minutes: we track the flight, meet you in arrivals with a name sign, and can loop past your hotel to drop luggage before continuing to the course. From Orly, the A106 and the southern périphérique deliver you to porte d'Auteuil in 35 to 45 minutes — Auteuil is the closest of the Paris racecourses to Orly, and the exit is practically at the gates.

Every fare below is flat and all-inclusive — tolls, parking and waiting time — and confirmed at booking. A couple in the grandstand facing the rivière takes a Business Class; a box of six shares a Business Van with room for coats, binoculars and the racecards; owners and their guests arrive in First Class. On big jump meetings, the return is scheduled with the outbound ride, so the end of your day is already solved before it begins.

All-inclusive fixed fares — tolls, parking and waiting time included. Short local rides stay at the class minimum (never below); longer trips are billed per km, always at least the minimum. Get your exact price in seconds ↗

The Grand Steeple — and every other jump meeting of the season

The Grand Steeple-Chase de Paris, in late May, is the summit of French jump racing: nearly 6,000 metres over Auteuil's biggest obstacles, the grandstands full, and the whole porte d'Auteuil sector under pressure — because the Grand Steeple weekend regularly collides with the Roland-Garros fortnight a few hundred metres away. Two crowds, one interchange. We run all weekend — airport pickups for owners and guests flying in, staggered hotel collections for groups, drivers briefed on the day's closures around the stadium, and a fixed return the moment the last race is run. One rule from experience: book several days ahead; on Grand Steeple Sunday, the pre-booked cars are the only ones that exist in the west of Paris.

The rest of the jump season runs in two acts — spring from March to early July, autumn from September to December — with Sunday cards, the great hurdle races and steeple-chase trials on the road to the Grand Steeple. Autumn meetings finish at dusk, which is exactly when an unbooked ride home from the edge of the Bois becomes a problem. Regular racegoers keep it simple with a chauffeur on hourly disposal — €79/h in Business Class, €109/h in a Business Van, €150/h in First Class, 2-hour minimum: the car waits through the card, holds your coats and winnings between races, and leaves whenever you do.

For hospitality boxes and corporate race days, our event service coordinates several cars and vans under one booking — one contact, staggered pickups, a single grouped return. Owners and connections who want the quietest possible day take First Class, with a chauffeur used to paddock timing and discreet exits. And if the jumps are only half your programme — flat racing across the Bois another day — see our ParisLongchamp page, or talk to us directly for a multi-car programme quoted per itinerary.

Auteuil Racecourse Chauffeur FAQ

How do I get to Auteuil racecourse for a race day?

Auteuil sits at the southern edge of the Bois de Boulogne, by porte d'Auteuil in the 16th. Public transport gets crowded on race days and taxis do not cruise the Bois, so a pre-booked chauffeur is the simplest answer: pickup at your hotel, home or airport, drop-off at the entrance, scheduled return after the last race. From central Paris, count 15 to 20 minutes.

Is there parking at Auteuil on race days?

The car parks around the racecourse saturate fast — and the whole sector locks up when a big meeting overlaps with Roland-Garros in late May. With a chauffeur you skip parking entirely: drop-off at the entrance, driver on call, car waiting at the agreed gate when racing ends.

Can I book a chauffeur for the Grand Steeple-Chase de Paris?

Yes — the Grand Steeple weekend, in late May, is our biggest date at Auteuil. We coordinate cars all weekend from hotels, private addresses and airports, including multi-car bookings for groups. Book several days ahead: the date often collides with Roland-Garros next door.

How much is a transfer from CDG to Auteuil racecourse?

€119 in Business Class, €154 in a 7-seat Business Van, €199 in First Class — flat and all-inclusive, with flight tracking and a name sign in arrivals. Count 45 to 60 minutes depending on traffic.

Will my chauffeur wait and drive me back after the last race?

Yes — the return is scheduled with the outbound ride at a fixed price, with no surge pricing at the edge of the Bois. Autumn cards finish at dusk; your car is at the gate. If your day may stretch, take the car on hourly disposal and keep it fully flexible.

Can you handle groups for a day at the jumps?

Yes — 7-seat Business Vans for a box of friends or clients, and several coordinated cars under one booking for larger parties, with staggered pickups and a single grouped return. Corporate race days are quoted per programme.
