Matchday travel should be smooth, timely, and enjoyable — especially when you’ve booked a professional chauffeur.
Whether you’re heading to Twickenham Stadium, Wembley, or Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, understanding what to expect helps you make the most of your journey.
This guide explains matchday chauffeur etiquette, how to prepare, and what defines a first-class experience with VVS Chauffeur Drive.
What to Expect from a Professional Sports Chauffeur
1. Arrive on Time, Relaxed, and Prepared
Your chauffeur’s job is to handle every detail — timing, route, and parking — so you can focus on the event.
Still, it helps to:
- Confirm your pick-up time the day before
- Be ready at your location to maintain the schedule flow
- Allow extra minutes for stadium security or entry queues
Your chauffeur will plan around traffic updates and adjust timings for road closures near the venue.

2. Respect the Vehicle
Chauffeur cars are kept in immaculate condition. To maintain that standard:
- Avoid eating meals in the car unless pre-arranged
- Keep personal items neatly stored
- Close doors gently — your chauffeur can assist
- Avoid muddy shoes or clothing on the interior
These small courtesies reflect respect for the service and ensure a pleasant ride for everyone.
3. Communicate Clearly with Your Chauffeur
Professional chauffeurs value clarity.
If you have specific plans, such as a pre-match lunch or post-game dinner, please let your driver know in advance.
You can also ask your chauffeur to:
- Adjust the temperature or music volume
- Plan a different return time
- Suggest local stops near the stadium
Open communication makes your matchday experience smoother and more enjoyable.

4. Matchday Pick-up and Drop-off Etiquette
Chauffeurs often operate under stadium restrictions, with specific zones for arrivals and departures.
To make things seamless:
- Confirm your preferred meeting point in advance
- Allow extra time for post-match traffic
- Keep your chauffeur updated if your plans change
Your driver will track live stadium updates to ensure they’re waiting at the right time and place.
5. Expect Professionalism Throughout
A matchday chauffeur is more than a driver — they represent reliability, discretion, and precision.
Expect:
- A well-presented chauffeur in uniform
- A spotless, comfortable vehicle
- Help with luggage or event materials
- Calm and courteous conduct, even during busy traffic
At VVS Chauffeur Drive, these standards define every matchday journey.

6. Tipping and Appreciation
Tipping is optional but appreciated when the service exceeds expectations.
In London, clients typically offer 10–15% for exceptional matchday service, though it’s entirely your choice.
7. Enjoy the Ride
The best part of hiring a chauffeur is peace of mind.
While others struggle with parking and crowds, you can relax, prepare for the match, or celebrate a win in comfort.
👉 Book your sports chauffeur service for the next event — whether it’s rugby at Twickenham or Formula 1 at Silverstone — and let VVS Chauffeur Drive take care of your journey.
