WEF Davos Chauffeur Service
The authority in transport during the World Economic Forum
For one week a year, Davos becomes the centre of the world. The World Economic Forum gathers heads of state, executives and delegations in an alpine valley where every movement is constrained by security zones, time slots and sheer volume. Swiss Limo has operated here for years: a dedicated chauffeur, mastered journeys and total discretion.
This page is the entry point to our WEF operation — from the transfer out of Zurich Airport to on-site logistics, taking in the right vehicles, the hotels we serve and the questions organisers actually ask. 'World Economic Forum Transportation' and 'Davos VIP Transportation' are facets of it, handled here rather than scattered.
Access zones & accreditation
During the Forum, central Davos is regulated: badges, checks and mandated drop-off points. Our chauffeurs know the setup and operate within it, in coordination with your security and accreditations. (Vehicle-access details to confirm each edition.)
Time slots & punctuality
During WEF week every minute counts and traffic thickens. A dedicated chauffeur, scheduled around your agenda with anticipated margins: your meetings hold.
World Economic Forum Transportation
A multi-vehicle operation for delegations: hotel ↔ congress shuttles, airport meet-and-greet, coordinated waiting and real-time redeployment. Run as an operation, not an isolated ride.
Davos VIP Transportation
Executives, public figures, families: absolute confidentiality, experienced chauffeurs, top-tier vehicles. The service stays invisible until it is needed.
Roadshow & multi-day
Investors and teams on a roadshow: several vehicles, several days, one point of contact. Routes and slots planned in advance.
Book very early
Demand soars during the WEF and the regional fleet is reserved months ahead. Book early to secure your vehicle and chauffeur — the first rule of January.

Frequently asked questions
Allow 1 h 50 to 2 h 15 outside peak times for 150 km. During WEF week, plan extra margin for checks and traffic. We set departure to your agenda and track your flight.
Zurich (ZRH) is the main airport — the most direct to Davos. Geneva is possible but markedly further. For private jets, several regional aerodromes can be considered (see below).
During the WEF, central Davos is regulated: badges, checks and mandated drop-off points. Our chauffeurs operate within this, in coordination with your security and accreditations. Vehicle-access details are set by the authorities each edition and must be confirmed.
As early as possible — ideally several months ahead. The regional fleet books up very early and demand outstrips supply in January. Booking late risks having no vehicle at all.
Mercedes S-Class saloon for 1–3 passengers, V-Class van for delegations, Mercedes-Maybach for the highest level of comfort, and Sprinter for large groups. The vehicle is chosen by passenger count and luggage volume.
Yes. For investors and teams on a roadshow, we deploy several vehicles over several days with a single point of contact, planned routes and dedicated chauffeurs.
Yes. Davos has no airport; arrival is via a regional aerodrome then road, or by helicopter depending on conditions. Heliport / aerodrome options (e.g. Samedan) and their feasibility depend on weather and clearances — to confirm case by case.
Yes. Our chauffeurs operate in French, English and German, and we cover further languages subject to availability — an asset for the Forum's international clientele.
Yes. Help with luggage, skis and bulky gear; the V-Class van or Sprinter is chosen when volume requires it. Child seats on request.
Indicatively and per transfer during WEF week: from 750 CHF in E-Class, 950 CHF in V-Class, 1000 CHF in S-Class and 1400 CHF in Maybach; Sprinter on request. For full-day hire: from 1150 CHF (E-Class) to 2490 CHF (Sprinter). These are estimates to confirm by period, route and duration.
Yes. Beyond point-to-point transfers, we offer a dedicated chauffeur by the hour or day — the best fit during the Forum, where movements come back to back.
Confidentiality is absolute: experienced chauffeurs used to public figures and delegations, no communication about movements, coordination with your security teams.
Yes, every address in Davos Platz and Davos Dorf, including the Steigenberger Grandhotel Belvédère, the AlpenGold Hotel (ex-InterContinental), the Hard Rock Hotel Davos, the Waldhotel and the Schatzalp.
No. The chauffeur service requires no badge. Vehicle access to the regulated zones, however, depends on the edition's rules (vehicle badges, stickers, drop-off points): we set every pickup to what the setup allows.
We align in advance: security contact, programme, pickup points and access constraints. Our chauffeurs are used to protected movements and follow your team's instructions throughout the assignment.
Checks add journey time, especially at peak hours. We build those margins into the schedule; keep badges and documents at hand to smooth the passage.
An early hotel departure, drop-off at the Congress Centre or the first meeting, repositioning through the day as your agenda unfolds, evening receptions, a late return. With full-day hire, the vehicle follows your rhythm with nothing to renegotiate per ride.
Yes. On at-disposal hire, the chauffeur waits nearby and repositions within the perimeter rules. You step out of your meeting, the car is there.
Yes, the operation runs 24/7 during Forum week. Receptions, dinners and late nights are part of the schedule just like daytime meetings.
Your dates, passenger count, flights (numbers and times), hotels, the provisional programme and, where relevant, your security team's contact. With that, we build the operation and the quote in one exchange.
Yes, that is the norm at the WEF. A single coordinator follows your programme and redeploys vehicles in real time when a meeting overruns or a slot slips.
Yes — our most frequent counterpart during the WEF: one thread, an itemised quote, written confirmations and a coordinator reachable all week.
Yes. Several dedicated vehicles and chauffeurs, one consolidated schedule and one coordinator: each principal has their car, you have a single point of contact.
During Forum week taxis are saturated and unfindable at critical hours, with no standby between meetings. A dedicated chauffeur guarantees the vehicle, the timing and continuity across the whole day.
The train is reliable but involves a change (usually at Landquart), luggage handling and the last mile in Davos under WEF constraints. The private transfer is door-to-door, timed to your flight, and lets you work en route.
Parking is near impossible, the perimeter is regulated, the alpine roads are wintry and your days are already full: driving yourself costs time and attention. A chauffeur turns journeys into useful time.
In arrivals, with a name board, after tracking your flight. For private-jet arrivals, pickup is FBO-side, coordinated with your handler.
We track the flight in real time and adjust the pickup, with no supplement for the flight delay itself. The chauffeur is there when you land, not at the theoretical time.
Yes. Regional legs (Klosters 12 km away, St. Moritz ≈ 70 km) slot into the week's schedule, with the same chauffeur and the same point of contact.
They are set out in black and white on the quote. During the WEF, with the fleet blocked for your dates, terms are stricter than the rest of the year — hence the value of confirming a realistic programme early.
