A dedicated driver turns getting around Ghana from a task into a non-event — for executives, families and visitors alike. Here’s how personal and chauffeur hire works, and what it costs.
There’s a reason so many people in Ghana — residents and visitors alike — choose to have a driver rather than drive themselves. A dedicated personal driver turns transport from a daily effort into something you simply don’t have to think about: the car arrives, you get in, and someone who knows the roads, the traffic and the city takes care of the rest. This guide covers hiring a personal driver or chauffeur in Ghana — who it suits, what’s included, and how it’s priced.
Personal driver hire means a dedicated professional driver with a vehicle, assigned to you for the period you need — a day, a week, or on an ongoing monthly basis. Unlike a one-off trip or transfer, the driver and car are at your disposal for your schedule: errands, meetings, school runs, nights out, trips out of town — whatever your days require. It ranges from a practical everyday driver to a full chauffeur service for executives and VIPs.
You get a professional, experienced driver and a clean, maintained vehicle suited to your needs — from a comfortable saloon to an SUV or a prestige Land Cruiser for executive use. The driver brings local knowledge of routes, traffic and the city, handles the parking, and adapts to your schedule. Fuel and any out-of-town travel are accounted for in the arrangement; we set it all out clearly so there are no surprises.
Personal driver hire is priced by the vehicle and the period. A day with a driver starts from the with-driver daily rates on our rates page (a saloon around GH₵ 900, an SUV around GH₵ 1,300), and — importantly — weekly and monthly arrangements bring the daily cost down, just as with any long-term hire. For an ongoing driver, we quote a monthly rate matched to your expected use.
