Professional Drivers and Chauffeurs, Screened and Insured
Getting there is easy; arriving well is a craft. Imperial Hospitality Services provides licensed, background-screened professional drivers and chauffeurs across the Greater Houston area — for a single evening, a wedding weekend, or a standing weekly schedule. Every driver passes motor-vehicle-record checks and our hospitality training before their first assignment, and every engagement is covered by our commercial insurance.
Not sure which service fits? Our guide to choosing between a chauffeur and a driver walks through the difference.
Occasions We Drive
Business & Corporate Travel
Airport transfers, client visits, and multi-stop days with a consistent, vetted driver who knows Houston traffic and your preferences. See five ways chauffeur services simplify business travel.
Weddings & Milestone Celebrations
Timed arrivals, curbside staging for photos, and coordination with your planner so the schedule stays invisible to guests. Our post on wedding chauffeurs in Houston covers what to expect.
Nights Out & Group Celebrations
Bachelor and bachelorette parties, concerts, and celebrations where nobody should be behind the wheel. (Wondering about etiquette? We even wrote about tipping your chauffeur at a bachelorette party.)
Executive & VIP Service
Discreet, professionally dressed chauffeurs for principals who value privacy, punctuality, and a driver who reads the room.
Medical Appointments & Senior Transportation
Patient, door-to-door service for appointments and errands — drivers who assist without being asked twice and wait without being asked at all.
Airport & Cruise Transfers
On-time pickups for IAH, Hobby, and the Galveston cruise terminals, with flight tracking, luggage assistance, and a driver already waiting when you land — not circling the cell lot.
Why Houston Trusts IHS Behind the Wheel
We are a Houston hospitality company first and a transportation provider second — which means punctuality, presentation, and courtesy are graded on every assignment, not assumed. Our drivers know the freeway patterns, the venue loading zones, and the back routes when the Loop locks up, and every engagement runs under a named supervisor with one accountable point of contact. Whether it is one evening or a standing weekly schedule, the standard is the same.
Your Car or Ours — The Personal-Driver Model
Many clients don’t need a vehicle; they need a professional behind the wheel of their own. IHS places personal drivers in client vehicles for commutes, errands, events, and travel days — licensed, insured, and accountable, with documented care standards for the car itself. It’s the comfort of your own vehicle with the freedom of the back seat.
One Vendor. The Whole Front-of-House.
Most Houston clients juggle separate vendors for transportation, parking, and security — three contracts, three supervisors, three standards. IHS delivers professional drivers, valet parking, licensed security guards, event security, and concierge staff under one contract and one accountable operations team. Our security division runs TX Patrol™, our proprietary accountability platform — the same operational discipline governs how every driver assignment is scheduled, tracked, and reported.

Driver & Chauffeur FAQs
What is the difference between a chauffeur and a driver?
A driver gets you from A to B; a chauffeur delivers a service — route planning, door service, luggage handling, discretion, and a professional standard of dress and conduct. IHS provides both, matched to the occasion and budget. Our blog breaks down the distinction in more detail.
Can your driver use my own vehicle?
Yes. Many clients prefer a professional driver behind the wheel of their own car — for daily commutes, errands, events, or medical appointments. Every IHS driver is licensed, background-screened, and insured, and treats your vehicle with documented care.
Do you provide chauffeurs for weddings and special events?
Absolutely. Wedding-day transportation, bachelor and bachelorette parties, anniversaries, proms, and galas are all core work for us. Your chauffeur coordinates timing with your planner, handles staging and photos at the curb, and keeps the schedule invisible to your guests.
Can I book a driver for regular business travel?
Yes. Executives and teams use IHS drivers for airport transfers, client visits, and multi-stop days across Houston. A consistent, vetted driver who knows your preferences turns drive time into productive time — no rideshare roulette.
Are your drivers screened and insured?
Every IHS driver passes background screening, motor-vehicle-record checks, and our hospitality training before their first assignment, and engagements are covered by our commercial insurance. Certificates of insurance are available on request.
