Why our rates are higher than taxis or rideshare
SLS is not a taxi service. Our chauffeurs are full-time employees, not subcontractors. They are trained in protocol, multilingual, and dressed in suits. The vehicles are owned, not rented; they are insured for VIP transport, washed and detailed before each booking, and equipped beyond OEM standards for executive comfort. We carry full Swiss commercial transport licensing, professional chauffeur insurance covering both passengers and luggage, and we are GDPR-compliant with a written NDA available for sensitive transports. Taxis cannot match these standards at any price.
Frequently asked questions
Are these prices final, including taxes?
Yes. Every quoted price is all-inclusive of Swiss VAT, motorway tolls, fuel, chauffeur time, and 60 minutes of wait time. The price displayed is the price you pay, with no booking fees, payment surcharges, or “service” add-ons.
Why is the Sprinter “on request” and not a fixed rate?
The Mercedes Sprinter is configured for groups of up to 17 passengers. Pricing depends on configuration (executive vs. minibus seating), distance, and whether the booking includes overnight or multi-day continuous availability. We provide a written quote within hours; the floor for any Sprinter booking is CHF 280/hour or per-leg.
Do you charge extra for early-morning or late-night transfers?
No. Our rates apply 24/7. Unlike many taxi services, we do not impose night surcharges, weekend surcharges, or holiday surcharges. The price quoted at booking is the price billed.
Is gratuity included or expected?
Gratuity is not included and is at your full discretion. Our chauffeurs are properly compensated as full-time employees and never expect a tip. If you wish to recognise excellent service, 5–10% is customary in Switzerland.
Can you provide a written quote for a multi-day or event programme?
Absolutely. Multi-day, event, and recurring corporate programmes are quoted in writing with a fixed total. We work regularly on Watches & Wonders, Art Basel, WEF Davos, Geneva Motor Show, and Polo Gold Cup Gstaad. Contact us with your dates, vehicle category, and rough programme — we typically respond with a quote within 4 working hours.
Do you accept cryptocurrency?
For private clients and on prior arrangement, we can accept BTC and ETH at the day’s mid-market rate via Bitcoin Suisse settlement. This is not a default option; please mention at booking if required.
