Your ride from Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht
From Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht in the Drechtsteden, junction 23 puts you on the A16 within a few minutes, and from there it is a single sweep north past Rotterdam towards Schiphol: 81 kilometres, around 70 minutes outside the rush hour.
For that journey Schipholride arranges a taxi at a fixed all-in price from €135 (Comfort), with VAT, luggage and the parking costs at Schiphol already included; there is no night surcharge. During the morning rush, especially around the Van Brienenoord bridge and the A13, the trip can stretch to roughly 100 minutes, so allow extra time for an early flight.
Because Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht has no railway station of its own, the train always means a bus or bike ride to Zwijndrecht or Rotterdam first, which is rarely practical with cases. A screened driver simply collects you at home, in De Volgerlanden just as easily as in Oostendam.
Free cancellation applies up to 24 hours before departure.
The standard route runs north along the A16: join the motorway at the Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht interchange (junction 23), cross the Van Brienenoord bridge, take the A20 at the Terbregseplein towards the Kleinpolderplein, then follow the A13 past Delft.
At the Ypenburg interchange the route switches to the A4, which leads straight to the Schiphol exit. Outside the rush hour those 81 kilometres take around 70 minutes. The weak spots sit mainly at the start and the middle: the Sandelingen interchange near Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht was rebuilt in 2018 for smoother flow but still needs watching when traffic is heavy, the Van Brienenoord bridge is a classic bottleneck, and the A13 around Overschie and Delft often fills up on weekdays between roughly 7:00-9:30 and 16:00-19:00.
At those times the journey can stretch to around 100 minutes. The driver plans on the basis of live traffic data and, when things are busy, sometimes chooses the A16/A20 variant via the Benelux corridor.
Pick-up in Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht
You can be collected anywhere in the municipality: in the newer De Volgerlanden district, the Krommeweg neighbourhood, the post-war Kruiswiel, the old Dorp along the dyke, and the hamlet of Oostendam. The neighbourhoods sit compactly between the A16 and the river Noord, so from any address you reach the motorway quickly.
Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht has no railway station, so a station meeting point does not apply here; you simply give your home address. Pick-up at businesses on the Antoniapolder or Ambachtsezoom industrial estates is no problem either; just add the company name or unit number to your booking so your driver waits in the right spot.

Taxi from Schiphol Airport to Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht
On the way back from Schiphol the same rush-hour logic applies in reverse: if you land between 15:00 and 18:00, the delay sits mainly on the A13 and at the Van Brienenoord bridge. Your flight is tracked live, and after landing you get 60 minutes of free waiting time, ample for baggage and customs before your driver heads back towards the Drechtsteden.
Whatever the hour you land, you pay exactly the same fixed price, as there is no night surcharge.

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 Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht for an 08:00 morning flight?+
Allow around 70 minutes of driving outside the rush hour plus a good two hours for check-in, so a departure around 04:45 leaves comfortable margin. If your trip falls in the morning rush from roughly 07:00, the journey can stretch to around 100 minutes, so set off correspondingly earlier. There is no night surcharge, so an early ride like this simply costs the fixed price.
Can I also reach Schiphol by train from Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht?+
Not directly: Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht has no railway station of its own. You would first take a bus or bike to Zwijndrecht or Rotterdam and board the train there. With luggage, a family, or a flight at an early or late hour, a door-to-door taxi is usually the more practical choice, sparing you the change and the walk.
Where on the route to Schiphol should I expect traffic jams?+
The familiar bottlenecks are the Sandelingen interchange right beside Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht, the Van Brienenoord bridge and the A13 around Overschie and Delft. On weekdays between roughly 7:00-9:30 and 16:00-19:00 the trip can therefore stretch to around 100 minutes rather than 70. The driver watches live traffic and, where needed, diverts via the A20 and the Benelux corridor.
Will I be collected at businesses on the Antoniapolder or in De Volgerlanden?+
Yes, the pick-up service covers the whole municipality: from the Antoniapolder and Ambachtsezoom industrial estates to residential areas like De Volgerlanden, Krommeweg, Kruiswiel and Oostendam. For a business address, add the company name to your booking, so your driver waits at the right entrance right by the door, ready for the agreed departure time.
How many of us fit in one car from Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht?+
Up to four people travel in a Comfort (VW Passat or similar, €135) or Premium (Mercedes E-Class or similar, €170). For 5 to 8 people you book the Van (Mercedes V-Class or similar) at €175 for the whole vehicle, often cheaper for a group than two separate cars or eight train tickets with a change. A VIP S-Class is €295.
Do I get an invoice with VAT for my ride?+
Yes. Book in your company's name and you receive an invoice with a VAT specification — useful for your records or expense claim.
Is a taxi cheaper than parking at Schiphol?+
For a longer trip it often is: you pay one fixed fare instead of parking fees per day, and you don't have to haul your cases from P3 to the terminal. Compare your own route with the price calculator.
How far in advance do I need to book my Schiphol taxi?+
You can book online up to 1 hour before pickup, day and night; only between 02:00 and 09:00 you can't book a ride departing that same morning. If online booking is no longer available, just call 085 060 2543 and we'll see what's possible. Booking earlier is always wise — especially in holiday periods.
