Your taxi from Dokkum to Schiphol Airport

The northernmost of Friesland's eleven cities, Dokkum, is also one of the furthest SchipholRide departures in the province: 177 kilometres to the airport, around 145 minutes off-peak and up to roughly 188 in the rush hour.

The fixed totals: €265 in Comfort (VW Passat or similar), €330 in Premium (Mercedes E-Class or similar), €345 for the Van seating 5-8 people (V-Class or similar) and €575 in VIP (S-Class or similar). Like Drachten, Dokkum has no railway station, so a flight otherwise starts with a bus; a taxi collecting you at home is the obvious alternative.

The fare is known in advance, with VAT, luggage and the Schiphol parking charges included and no night supplement. Cancelling is free as long as it happens at least 24 hours before pick-up.

Your route and departure time

From Dokkum the driver first follows the N356 (the Centrale As) towards Leeuwarden, then picks up the A31 and the A7 across the Afsluitdijk towards Noord-Holland. On the far side at Den Oever the A7 continues past Hoorn and Purmerend, until the A4 towards the terminal is reached via the A10 ring or the A8.

Off-peak this takes around 145 minutes. The opening kilometres on provincial roads take their share of time; further on, the Afsluitdijk is sensitive to wind and roadworks, and the section around Purmerend and the Amsterdam ring can jam, lifting the rush-hour journey to roughly 188 minutes.

Tight flight times are therefore planned with a generous margin.

The ride from Dokkum starts on the N356, the Centrale As, towards Leeuwarden. Only there do you join the A31, after which the A7 carries you across the Afsluitdijk into Noord-Holland. That approach on provincial roads is part of the off-peak driving time of about 145 minutes.

For a European flight at 07:00 you are at Schiphol by 05:00, 2 hours ahead as Schiphol advises, so the driver picks you up at 02:20, with 15 minutes of slack added. From the centre by the old bastions or from Damwâld, the ride simply begins at home.

Flying intercontinental at 19:00, you are inside 3 hours ahead, at 16:00. Around Purmerend and on the Amsterdam ring road traffic can lock up in the afternoon, and the Afsluitdijk is sensitive to wind and roadworks.

In that case, allow about 188 minutes. The driver arrives at 12:35, including 15 minutes of slack. From Kollum, Ternaard or Holwerd, where the ferry to Ameland leaves, the same fixed fare applies: €265 in Comfort. Leaving in the middle of the night or at the weekend costs nothing extra, and there is no rush-hour surcharge either.

Pickup in and around Dokkum

Drivers collect throughout Dokkum and the surrounding villages of the municipality of Noardeast-Fryslân: from the historic centre with its bastioned ramparts to Damwâld, Kollum, Ternaard and Holwerd, the ferry port for Ameland.

All these places share one fixed price. With no train in the city, boarding at your own front door is generally the most practical arrangement. Note your complete address when reserving; the planner times the departure to your flight and the driver picks the swiftest road towards Leeuwarden.

Pickup areas include

  • Dokkum-Centrum
  • Damwâld
  • Kollum
  • Ternaard
  • Holwerd

Business pickups also available at: Bedrijventerrein Betterwird · Hogedijken. Enter your business address for a direct ride from the office to departures, with an invoice on request.

“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 about this route

From your first fare check to your return ride to Dokkum. Choose a topic and find the details you need before travelling.

Fares & booking

What does the taxi Dokkum to Schiphol cost?

The Comfort price is €265, with VAT, luggage and airport parking included. Roomier or more luxurious travel costs €330 in Premium, €345 in the Van for five to eight people, and €575 in VIP. Although the distance is 177 kilometres, the sum is fixed beforehand and nothing joins it en route.

Pickup & journey time

Dokkum has no station. How do I travel to Schiphol?

True, Dokkum has no railway station. Without a taxi you would first ride a bus to Leeuwarden and change onto the train there, cases and all. A taxi collects you at home instead and covers the door-to-door journey to Schiphol in around 145 minutes.

For this northern city that is far and away the easiest way to make a flight.

Am I collected in Kollum or Holwerd too?

Yes: Kollum, Holwerd, Damwâld, Ternaard and the other villages belong to the municipality of Noardeast-Fryslân and fall under the same fixed price of €265 in Comfort. Returning from Ameland via the Holwerd ferry port, the driver can pick you up there as well.

Give your address at booking and the time is arranged.

When must I leave for an early flight from Dokkum?

Without traffic the journey lasts around 145 minutes. To reach the airport around 06:00 for an 08:00 flight, the driver collects you at about a quarter past three. That keeps you ahead of the morning bustle near Purmerend and the Amsterdam ring, at the ordinary tariff with no night surcharge.

Can I travel on business from Betterwird or Hogedijken?

Yes, the driver comes to your company on the Betterwird or Hogedijken estate. Pass on the company name and entrance in the comments. You pay online in advance and then receive an invoice with VAT. Premium is priced at €330, VIP at €575. Comfort is €265.

How much travel time should I allow from Dokkum in the afternoon rush?

Off-peak about 145 minutes, in the afternoon rush about 188 minutes. The first stretch along the Centrale As to Leeuwarden usually flows; the delay sits around Purmerend and on the Amsterdam ring road, and sometimes on the Afsluitdijk in wind or roadworks.

The driver plans with plenty of room around that. The fare stays €265 in Comfort.

Passengers & return journeys

And if my return flight towards Dokkum lands later?

The arrival is monitored, so the driver plays to your true landing time and never pulls up at the wrong moment. A free hour is yours for the baggage hall after landing. Come in at dead of night and it remains €265, with nothing extra for the hour.

Dokkum–Schiphol with a group from Noardeast-Fryslân: which vehicle?

For 5 to 8 people there is the Van, a Mercedes V-Class or similar. From Dokkum it costs €345 for the whole vehicle, with VAT, luggage and the parking and drop-off costs at Schiphol included. With no station in town, one car from a shared address, for example in Kollum or Damwâld, is the practical choice for a group.
