Your ride from Castricum
From Castricum to Schiphol you pay Schipholride a fixed all-in price from €75: Comfort €75 (VW Passat or similar), Premium €95 (Mercedes E-Class or similar), Van for 5-8 people €100 (V-Class or similar) or VIP €165 (S-Class or similar).
VAT, luggage and the parking costs at Schiphol are all included, and there is no night surcharge. The 39 kilometres to the airport take around 40 minutes outside the rush hour, rising to roughly 55 minutes in the morning or evening peak.
You pick the segment that suits you, and the fixed fare is the same whether you set off from the dunes in Bakkum or a street in Akersloot. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before departure. If you are being collected at Schiphol, your flight is tracked live and you get 60 minutes of free waiting time after landing.
Schipholride arranges your ride with a screened driver.
From Castricum the driver heads out via the N203 towards Uitgeest, joining the A9 around the Uitgeest/Akersloot junction. The A9 then runs south past Beverwijk and through the Wijkertunnel, continuing along Velsen towards the Raasdorp interchange, where the route picks up the A4 past Badhoevedorp for the final stretch to Schiphol.
The main bottleneck sits on the A9 between Uitgeest and the Wijkertunnel during the morning peak heading into Amsterdam, roughly 7:00 to 9:00, and around the Raasdorp interchange; in the evening peak it is mostly the return direction that backs up.
At those times the journey can stretch from around 40 minutes to roughly 55. If the A9 is gridlocked, a screened driver can divert via the N203 and N246 through the Zaanstreek to keep things moving, and on the day picks whichever option is running fastest.
Pick-up in Castricum
You can be collected anywhere in the municipality: the village of Castricum itself (Centrum and the Noord, Oost and Zuid neighbourhoods), Bakkum, Limmen and Akersloot. De Woude is reachable too, though the small ferry there needs a little extra planning time, so do mention it when you book.
If you live on the dune side in Bakkum or close to the beach at Castricum aan Zee, that makes no difference to the fixed price. A pick-up at Castricum station or on the Castricummerwerf business park works just as well as a home address; you simply enter the exact address in the booking.

Your flight is tracked live and you get 60 minutes of free waiting time after landing, so even if it is delayed a screened driver is ready when you walk out.

Top chauffeur, uitstekende rit!
Vriendelijke gast, rijdt fantastisch.
Excellent service for our trip from Schipol airport to Spijkenisse. Communication from the driver was excellent and we managed to arrange a earlier pick up based on his knowledge of how long the immigration queue would be. Very friendly, helpful and would highly recommend

Frequently asked questions
What time should I leave Castricum for a 07:00 flight?+
Allow around 40 minutes of driving time outside the rush hour, plus a good two hours for check-in and security: a pick-up around 04:00 to 04:10 is then on the safe side. Because there is no night surcharge, you still pay the fixed price from €75 at that early hour. The driver is at your door at the agreed moment.
Is the taxi faster than the train from Castricum station to Schiphol?+
The train averages around 40 minutes, but it does not run directly to Schiphol: you change once along the way. The taxi runs door to door in roughly 40 minutes outside the rush hour and you never haul your cases across platforms. With a lot of luggage, children or an early flight, that is often the difference that matters.
Which roads does the ride use and where can delays build up?+
From the N203 towards Uitgeest, then the A9 through the Wijkertunnel and on at the Raasdorp interchange towards the A4 for Schiphol. In the rush hour the journey can stretch to around 55 minutes, mainly on the A9 between Uitgeest and the Wijkertunnel. The driver allows for that when setting the pick-up time, so you still reach the airport in good time.
Can I also be collected in Bakkum, Limmen or Akersloot?+
Yes, the fixed prices apply across the whole municipality of Castricum, so besides the village itself that means Bakkum, Limmen and Akersloot too. Enter your exact address when you book and the driver is at the door at the agreed time. For De Woude, allow a little extra planning time because of the ferry crossing.
Six of us are going on holiday from Castricum — does that fit in one vehicle?+
Yes, the Van (Mercedes V-Class or similar) carries 5 to 8 people with their luggage for a fixed all-in price of €100. That often works out cheaper per person than separate train tickets with a change, and you all set off together from your own front door in Castricum, no platforms or transfers involved.
What if I miss my flight or my flight gets cancelled?+
Let us know at least 4 hours before your scheduled pickup on 085 060 2543. We then move your ride to a new time free of charge, or you cancel with a 50% refund. If you tell us later than 4 hours ahead, or we can't reach you, the ride counts as a no-show without a refund.
Can I get a child seat for the ride to Schiphol?+
Yes. When booking, mention that you need a child seat or booster and for which age — your driver will have the right seat ready.
Can I pay with iDEAL or credit card?+
Yes, you pay online in advance with iDEAL, credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The amount you see at booking is the full amount — there is nothing to pay in the car.
