How it works

Just send a message.

A dedicated manager, the whole trip.

No call centre and no app. One WhatsApp thread with the same manager, from the first message to the last ride, and an answer within 15 minutes.

Plans change. That's fine.

A missed connection into HAM, an extra engineer from head office, a dinner moved to the Speicherstadt: send one message and we re-plan. No new booking, no fee for changes within the booked time.

  1. Hydrogen Expo, Tuesday, 4 people with stand material

    09:12

  2. Good morning. For 4 people with material we suggest the V-Class: Tuesday 08:00–19:00, 11 h × €140 = €1,540 incl. VAT. Shall we confirm?

    09:19

  3. Confirmed. Pick-up at the hotel lobby, drop-off at Eingang Ost.

    09:21

  4. Your chauffeur for tomorrow: name, mobile number and number plate follow this evening. In the lobby at 08:00.

    18:05

Same chauffeur, same car, one WhatsApp thread for all three days.

A day at the Hydrogen Expo with a chauffeur

From the lobby to the last dinner. One car.

  1. 08:30

    Hotel → Messe

    The chauffeur is in the lobby, coffee in hand if you like. Drop-off at Eingang Ost, the organiser's recommended entrance, before the conference opens at 09:00.

  2. 12:30

    Buyer lunch at the Alster

    Same car, same chauffeur. He waits outside the restaurant; you leave when the supply terms are settled, not when the taxi app says so.

  3. 18:00

    Halls close

    Out through Eingang Ost while the taxi rank at Eingang Mitte fills up. Laptop open by the time you pass Planten un Blomen.

  4. 20:00

    Dinner in the Speicherstadt

    The car waits outside while you host the partners you met at the stand. Back at the hotel when you say, and the same chauffeur is in the lobby tomorrow at 08:30.

We know Hamburg Messe

Pick-up where the crowd isn't.

The Hydrogen and Carbon Capture Technology World Expo fills the B halls at Messeplatz 1 with 1,000+ exhibitors and a three-day conference. The organiser sends visitors through Eingang Ost, and at 18:00 everyone heads for the taxi rank at Eingang Mitte. Your chauffeur goes where you tell them — Eingang Ost, Eingang Süd on Karolinenstraße, Dammtor station or your hotel lobby.

HAM airport → Hamburg Messe
25–35 min
Messe → Alster hotels (Vier Jahreszeiten, Fontenay, Atlantic)
10–15 min
Messe → HafenCity / Speicherstadt
15–20 min
Messe → Hamburg Hauptbahnhof
10 min
Pick-up points we use
  • Eingang Ost

    The recommended entrance for the B halls, with registration and the organiser's office.

  • Eingang Süd

    Karolinenstraße. Second registration point, away from the taxi rank.

  • Hamburg Dammtor

    For colleagues arriving by train, a short walk from Eingang Ost.

  • Your hotel lobby

    The chauffeur waits inside and carries the luggage.

The missed connection

A buyer delegation missed its connection and landed at HAM close to midnight instead of in the afternoon. The chauffeur was re-timed automatically, our desk moved the first stand meeting to later in the morning, nobody had to make a call.

The meeting that grew

Two investors at the stand became five after a panel on electrolysers. The E-Class was swapped for a V-Class within 40 minutes, and the whole group went on to dinner in one car.

Questions before you book

Cars cancelled 24 hours or more before pick-up are free of charge. Less than 24 hours before pick-up the booked price is due, as set out in our Terms of Service.
