When you book a ride with CRA Car Rental Addis, you’re not just hiring a vehicle — you’re trusting a professional who represents excellence, reliability, and hospitality. Our chauffeurs are the heartbeat of our service, ensuring every journey is smooth, safe, and enjoyable. But have you ever wondered what a typical day looks like for one of them?
⸻
Early Start: Preparing for the Day
The day begins before sunrise. Each chauffeur starts with a detailed inspection of their vehicle — checking tire pressure, oil level, fuel, cleanliness, and ensuring every feature works perfectly. At CRA, appearance matters; both the car and the driver must reflect our commitment to professionalism.
Once the car is ready, the chauffeur reviews the day’s assignments — airport pickups, embassy visits, business meetings, or full-day city tours. Every trip is carefully planned with timing, route checks, and client preferences noted.

Morning: Airport Arrivals and VIP Greetings
Morning hours are often dedicated to airport transfers. Our chauffeurs arrive at Bole International Airport well before the flight lands. With a nameboard in hand, they greet each guest with a warm Ethiopian smile and assist with luggage before escorting them to a spotless, air-conditioned SUV.
Whether it’s a corporate guest, a diplomat, or a returning traveler, the goal is the same — to make the first impression of Addis Ababa calm, safe, and welcoming.

Midday: Smooth Rides Across the City
Addis Ababa can be unpredictable — traffic, construction, and changing weather. But CRA chauffeurs are trained to handle it all. Using the best routes, they ensure clients arrive at their destinations on time and stress-free.
During waiting periods, chauffeurs stay nearby, maintaining communication via phone or WhatsApp, ready to assist whenever needed. This reliability is one of the reasons embassies, NGOs, and corporate teams continue to choose CRA.
⸻
Afternoon: Long-Distance Trips and Client Care
For out-of-town assignments — whether to Bishoftu, Entoto, or Debre Libanos — our chauffeurs remain attentive and composed, ensuring comfort over every kilometer. They make sure the car stays stocked with bottled water, maintain professional conversation (or quiet, if the guest prefers), and always drive with safety first.
⸻
Evening: Final Drop-Off and Daily Review
As the day ends, many chauffeurs return to Bole or major hotels for evening drop-offs. Once the clients are safely dropped, vehicles are refueled, cleaned, and parked, ready for the next day’s journey.
Before signing off, each chauffeur updates the CRA booking system, confirming completed rides and noting any client feedback or special requests.
⸻
Professionalism You Can Rely On
At CRA, being a chauffeur is more than driving — it’s about presentation, discipline, and care. Every driver undergoes background checks, defensive driving courses, and hospitality training. Many have served government institutions, embassies, and multinational organizations, ensuring they understand discretion and service at the highest level.
