Private family chauffeur service
Chauffeur Travel Built Around Your Family
Rumiancev Drive provides private chauffeur services for families living in London, visiting the United Kingdom or requiring regular travel over an extended period. We support everyday journeys, airport transfers, boarding school collections, education visits, appointments and carefully planned travel with children.
For regular bookings, we aim to provide continuity with the same chauffeur wherever the confirmed schedule and availability allow. When one chauffeur cannot safely cover the complete programme, a small familiar team may be assigned to provide dependable coverage.
One principal chauffeur or a small consistent team wherever schedules and availability allow.
Arrangements for individual journeys, weekly routines or extended family requirements.
Clear collection details, family contacts and agreed handover arrangements for younger passengers.
Family chauffeur services
Travel for Everyday Routines and Important Family Plans
Each arrangement is planned around the confirmed schedule, passengers, destinations and practical requirements.
Regular Family Chauffeur Service
Ongoing chauffeur support for families requiring regular travel in London and across the UK, with one principal chauffeur or a small familiar team assigned wherever possible.
Boarding School Transfers and Weekend Travel
Collections for weekends, exeats, half terms and holidays, with return journeys to school, London homes, airports and other agreed destinations.

Multi-stop itineraries for school viewings, open days, campus tours, admissions meetings and accommodation visits across London and the UK.

Hourly Chauffeur Service for Families

Family Days Out and Special Occasions
Private chauffeur travel for family days out, celebrations, graduations, weddings, dinners and occasions involving several family members or more than one vehicle.
Continuity wherever possible
Familiar Chauffeurs for Your Family
Family chauffeur service is different from arranging an isolated transfer. When journeys are regular, the chauffeur becomes familiar with the family’s usual addresses, schools, preferred routes, collection points and practical travel requirements.
We aim to provide continuity with the same chauffeur wherever the confirmed schedule and availability allow. This can make everyday travel calmer and more comfortable, particularly for families with children or several journeys during the same week.
When one chauffeur cannot safely cover the complete schedule, another familiar chauffeur may assist. We aim to keep the team involved as limited and consistent as reasonably possible.
Long-standing relationships
Trusted Through Different Stages of Family Life
Some families have trusted Rumiancev Drive since 2011. Over time, their requirements have changed from school collections and weekend travel to university visits, airport transfers, appointments and journeys for adult family members.
We work to understand how each family travels and to provide a dependable arrangement that can continue as routines and responsibilities change.
Personal schedules, family addresses, school information and travel arrangements are treated with discretion and shared only where operationally necessary.
Regular and extended bookings
How Long-Term Family Service Works
Service can be arranged for several days, a number of weeks, several months or an ongoing period. Before the arrangement begins, we review the required days, expected daily hours, regular destinations and likely journeys outside London.
Extended bookings are planned around agreed service hours and an expected itinerary. They do not provide unlimited mileage or continuous 24-hour chauffeur availability.
Additional hours, late-night travel, significant itinerary changes and additional mileage are agreed separately. More than one chauffeur may be assigned where schedules overlap or one driver cannot safely cover the full programme.
- Agreed service dates and days of the week
- Expected daily start and finish times
- Regular home, school and appointment addresses
- Planned airport and regional journeys
Boarding school travel
Weekend Collections, Returns and School Holidays
We arrange regular and occasional journeys between boarding schools, London homes, airports and other agreed destinations throughout the school year.
Collection can be planned after school on Friday or following Saturday lessons, depending on the individual school timetable. Return travel can be arranged after weekends, exeats, half terms and holidays.
Vehicle selection is based on the passenger and everything travelling with them, including suitcases, school bags, sports equipment and other term-time belongings.
- Friday or Saturday boarding school collections
- Return journeys after weekends and holidays
- Connections between schools, homes and airports
- Vehicle planning around school luggage
Education itineraries
School Visits, Universities and Summer Programmes
Families visiting from overseas may need to see several boarding schools, colleges or universities during the same trip. We can plan transport around school tours, open days, admissions meetings, campus visits and accommodation viewings.
An itinerary may include airport collection, travel to a London hotel, several regional visits, waiting during appointments and a final return to London or the airport.
Travel can also be arranged for summer schools, language programmes, sports camps and other holiday activities, subject to confirmed dates, addresses and handover instructions.
- Boarding school and university visits
- Open days, interviews and accommodation viewings
- Multi-day education itineraries across the UK
- Summer schools, language programmes and camps
Children travelling without a parent
Clear Collection, Communication and Handover Arrangements
As parents ourselves, we understand how important clear communication and carefully agreed handovers are when a child is travelling without a parent.
Before accepting the booking, we review the passenger’s age, complete route, collection instructions and the identity of the responsible adults involved. The chauffeur will not release a child to an unknown or unconfirmed person.
Our chauffeur service does not replace airline, school or legal safeguarding procedures. The family remains responsible for checking the requirements of the airline, school, camp or organisation involved.
Child seats
Child Seat Requests Must Be Confirmed in Advance
Tell us before the journey when a child seat or booster seat is required. Include the child’s age and, where helpful, their approximate height or weight.
Child seats are subject to advance confirmation and availability. Not every vehicle carries every type of child seat as standard.
- Request the seat before the journey
- Provide the child’s age and approximate size
- Wait for confirmation of the appropriate seat
Passengers and luggage
The Vehicle Is Selected Around the Complete Journey
Passenger numbers alone do not determine the vehicle required. Suitcases, cabin bags, pushchairs, sports equipment and school belongings must also be considered.
Provide the number of adults and children, the approximate amount of luggage and details of any additional equipment so that the correct Mercedes-Benz vehicle can be confirmed.
- Number of adults and children travelling
- Suitcases, cabin bags and school luggage
- Pushchairs, sports equipment and additional items
