By the hour: a car at your disposal in Ville-d'Avray
Life here is a triangle — Versailles, Sèvres, Paris — and a chauffeur on hourly hire drives the whole of it: €79/h in Business Class, €109/h in a Business Van, €150/h in First Class, 2-hour minimum, the car staying with you between every stop. A morning of appointments in Versailles and errands in Sèvres; a lunch at the Étangs de Corot with guests collected in Paris beforehand; an afternoon that ends at the Cité de la Céramique and a school pickup on the way home. For households, we set up regular drivers for the school run and activities, so the same vetted chauffeur greets your children every day.
The other rhythm is the commute. Ville-d'Avray sits on the Ligne L, and the train is honest work at midday — but the first departure is no help for a 7am flight, and the last one turns an evening at the opera into a logistics problem. Many of our regulars book the car exactly there: down to Gare Saint-Lazare or straight to the office when the day starts early, and back up the hill after a dinner in Paris, when the forest road is dark and empty. It is also the town of Corot's ponds and of Boris Vian's childhood — visitors who come for the landscapes pair the morning here with an afternoon at the château de Versailles, one car for the whole loop.
For a wedding at the town hall, a reception in the parc de Saint-Cloud or a gala in Paris, our event service coordinates several cars and drivers in matching standard. And residents who run companies do what their neighbours in Saint-Cloud and Boulogne-Billancourt do — open a business account for monthly invoicing and priority cars; corporate terms are quoted per account.
