The difference

Salaried drivers. Calmer journeys.

By giving our drivers job security and stability, hiring them directly and having them on fixed salary contracts, you get a safer, calmer experience every time. No commission chasing. No rushed jobs. A Skipper's only incentive is to drive you brilliantly.

SalariedNever paid per fare — no rushing, no shortcuts.
Academy trainedThoroughly vetted, highly trained, mystery shopped, quality guaranteed.
Vetted & uniformedBackground-checked, English-fluent, immaculate.
Properly restedMandatory rest — fatigue never drives your car.
The Ride Skipper team of Skippers
Lauren Hamilton, founder of Ride Skipper
Why we exist

Built by a mum who couldn't find a driver she trusted.

Ride Skipper was born out of Lauren's frustration as a new mum: unable to drive, and fed up with playing roulette with her son's safety on Dubai's roads. So she built a service around drivers who are hired directly, salaried and trained to one standard.
