Private taxi to and from Schiphol from anywhere in the Netherlands, at a fixed price upfront and available 24/7.

An airport transfer to Schiphol costs from €35 (Comfort) and from €50 for a minivan. What you pay exactly depends on your pickup location and the class. The price is per ride, not per person.
Travelling with four people? Then you share the same amount; from five people you switch to the Van, which takes up to eight passengers. These are the fixed prices for the most requested routes:
Fixed total prices including VAT, luggage and parking costs at Schiphol, the same in both directions and with no night, weekend or public-holiday surcharge. Amsterdam has three price zones and is shown here at the lowest.
Prices checked on 17 October 2026. The full list of all places is on the prices page; for a list per municipality, see prices by municipality.
You book a taxi to Schiphol online in 30 seconds: enter your pickup address, choose your class and book. You see the complete fare straight away: no per-kilometre rate ticking away in traffic, no surcharge in the middle of the night. The driver is at your door at the agreed time and drops you at the right departure hall at Schiphol Airport. That is how simple a Schiphol taxi should be.
Why a fixed fare? The legal maximum fare of a regular taxi consists of a starting fee plus a per-kilometre and a per-minute rate. Every minute standing still or waiting in rush hour therefore costs money. Many taxi companies charge this way. At the official taxi rank at Schiphol Plaza, where an electric taxi is often waiting, you also pay that metered price. With SchipholRide the price is fixed before departure: a competitive fare with no surprises, even if you book at the last minute.
Outside rush hour you drive from Amsterdam to Schiphol in about 31 minutes and from Utrecht in about 53 minutes; in rush hour that is about 47 and 77 minutes. From The Hague allow about 42 minutes outside rush hour, from Rotterdam about 54 minutes.
Through SchipholRide you arrange passenger transport to the airport for private travellers and for businesses: from a family holiday to a business taxi for the early flight. The drivers know the terminals inside out. For the return journey your flight is tracked, so your Schiphol taxi is ready when the plane actually lands.
Need to go to another airport, such as Rotterdam The Hague Airport or Eindhoven Airport? That is possible too. There is no fixed route price as for Schiphol; the price is based on the distance. You also see that price when booking, before you pay.
What is the cheapest way to get to Schiphol? Honest answer: if you travel alone and light, the train is usually the cheapest. The station is directly below Schiphol Plaza, with direct intercity trains from Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht and The Hague.

Travelling with a group, lots of luggage or at times when public transport barely runs? Then the Schiphol taxi wins on convenience, and often on price per person too. Comparing taxi companies? Look beyond the starting fare.
Yes, you can: Uber runs to and from Schiphol Airport and has fixed pickup points at the airport. Bear in mind that its prices are dynamic: the fare moves with supply and demand, so the same trip can cost a lot more at a busy moment than at a quiet time.
SchipholRide works the other way round. You book in advance and the price of your Schiphol taxi is fixed at the moment of booking, whatever happens on the way. No surprises with rain, holiday crowds or a diversion, and on arrival the driver is ready for you without you having to look for a pickup point. You can also simply book a minivan for 8 people in advance. In short: an Uber is fine for short, spontaneous rides; for planned airport transport, choose certainty.

Your driver takes you from your front door right to the departure hall at Schiphol, and back again on your return. No changes, no lugging suitcases in the rain or in the small hours.
The price you see at booking is the total. Luggage, the Schiphol pickup fee, the driver's parking fees on pickup and VAT are all included. No night surcharge, no weekend surcharge.
When you are picked up at Schiphol, your flight is followed live via AeroDataBox. If it is delayed, the pickup time shifts automatically, with 60 minutes of free waiting after landing.
Comfort (Volkswagen Passat or similar), Premium (Mercedes E-Class or similar), Van (Mercedes V-Class or similar) for groups of 5 to 8, and VIP (Mercedes S-Class or similar) with water and wifi on board. Air conditioning and USB-C chargers in every class.
iDEAL, credit card, Bancontact, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or business on invoice (term by arrangement). All payments via Stripe: encrypted, no card details stored locally.
Plans change? Cancel 100% free up to 24 hours before pickup. Between 24 and 4 hours: 50% refund. No hidden small print.
Travelling with more than four passengers? Then the minivan is the logical choice. The minivan is a Mercedes V-Class or similar: room for up to 8 passengers (the legal maximum) plus a separate luggage space for 7 large suitcases. One van, one fixed total price, from €50.
Booking a minivan works like any other booking: choose the Van class online, enter your address and you immediately see the amount for your ride to Schiphol Airport.
With eight people you share the cost and travel surprisingly cheaply per person. Ideal for families, sports teams and groups of friends flying to their destination together: everyone arrives at the same time and nobody is left waiting. Everything about travelling with a group is on the group transport Schiphol page. Does your trip start or end at a cruise ship in IJmuiden? Then see cruise taxi IJmuiden.
With 10 people you pay the fixed price of two vehicles, because no more than 8 passengers are allowed in one taxi. From Utrecht a minivan plus a Comfort costs €185 together, about €19 per person, with room for 10 large suitcases. With more luggage it becomes two minivans: 2 × €105 = €210, about €21 per person, with room for 14 large suitcases. You arrange two vehicles by phone on 085 060 2543.

Anyone arranging passenger transport to the airport often searches for a "taxi company Schiphol" or a "taxi dispatch service Schiphol". The difference is in the role. A taxi company runs cars and drivers of its own; a dispatch service takes bookings and distributes them among affiliated carriers. SchipholRide works on that second model. It is an intermediary platform (KvK 82488703): you book online, and SchipholRide matches your ride with an independent, licensed carrier who carries out the transport.
In practice little changes for you, except the price. With a traditional dispatch service the meter decides afterwards what the ride costs; with SchipholRide the amount is fixed before departure, including luggage, VAT and Schiphol costs, at night and at the weekend too. No need to call: you arrange the booking online in thirty seconds, day and night. Would you rather speak to someone? Call 085 060 2543.
You recognise a reliable taxi to Schiphol by three things: a licensed driver (taxi licence, a driver card with a certificate of conduct, blue number plates), a fare that is fixed in advance, and recent reviews from real travellers. What SchipholRide complies with, and what the affiliated carrier is responsible for, is explained on the legal requirements and safety pages; the experiences of previous passengers are on the reviews page.
Through SchipholRide you book private transport to and from Schiphol Airport across the Netherlands: Comfort (Volkswagen Passat or similar) for 1-4 passengers, Premium (Mercedes E-Class or similar) for business comfort, Van (Mercedes V-Class or similar) for groups of 5 to 8, and VIP (Mercedes S-Class or similar) for executives and hospitality. All at a fixed price upfront.
It depends on the distance and the class. From Amsterdam you can book Comfort from €50, the minivan (Van) from €70 and VIP from €115. Live further away (Rotterdam, Utrecht or elsewhere)? Enter your pickup address on the booking page: within 30 seconds you see your exact fixed price, including VAT, luggage and Schiphol costs.
You can book a minivan to Schiphol from €50: one total price for the whole van (up to 8 passengers), luggage included. You book online: choose the Van class, enter your addresses and pay in advance. Need a taxi at the last minute? Call 085 060 2543, at night too.
Look for three things: an approved taxi (blue number plates, a driver with a taxi driver card), a fare that is fixed before departure and recent reviews from real travellers. A reliable Schiphol taxi offers all three. With SchipholRide you also get a well-presented driver. If you are picked up at Schiphol, your flight is also tracked live.
A taxi company has vehicles and drivers of its own and carries out the rides itself. A taxi dispatch service takes bookings and distributes them among affiliated carriers; the dispatch service does not drive itself. SchipholRide works on that second model: an intermediary platform (KvK 82488703) that matches your ride with a licensed carrier. The difference with a traditional dispatch service is the price: with SchipholRide it is fixed before departure, instead of the meter deciding what you pay.
In practice SchipholRide fills the role you expect from a taxi dispatch service for Schiphol: you arrange transport to or from the airport in one go, 24/7, from anywhere in the Netherlands. Formally, SchipholRide acts as an intermediary: the ride is carried out by an independent, licensed carrier with a taxi licence, a driver card and a certificate of conduct (VOG). SchipholRide handles the booking, the fixed price, the flight tracking and the contact. There is no need to call a dispatch centre; you can book online day and night.
For one person with little luggage: the train. The station is directly below Schiphol Plaza and a ticket costs a fraction of any taxi. By the way, you recognise a cheap taxi by its total price, not by its starting fare. From three people, for a night-time departure or with a lot of suitcases, a private taxi or minivan becomes surprisingly good value per person, and a lot more comfortable.
With a private taxi you travel door-to-door with no changes and no luggage hassle. No waiting times, no draughty platforms at 6 AM. For 1-2 people it is more than the train; for 3+ people it is often cheaper because one price covers every passenger.
Yes, Uber runs to and from Schiphol Airport with its own pickup points. The difference is in the price: Uber charges dynamically (the fare rises when it is busy), while with SchipholRide you book in advance at a fixed amount. For a planned ride to your flight, that gives more certainty.
Almost always when you travel with three or more people, have a lot of luggage or fly at times when public transport barely runs. Pure convenience: your transfer is fixed, you do not have to wait anywhere and you know in advance what the trip costs. Travelling solo during the day with hand luggage? Then the train is a fine alternative. We are honest about that.
Your flight number is linked to AeroDataBox and monitored live. If your flight is delayed, the pickup time shifts automatically, with 60 minutes of free waiting after landing. You receive the pickup point by email in advance, and once you have landed, your driver will contact you.
Yes. There is no night surcharge, no weekend surcharge and no public-holiday surcharge. The fixed price stays the same, whether it's 3 AM on a Sunday or 2 PM on a weekday.
Yes. For business clients we offer payment by invoice, with the term agreed in consultation. Request a business account on your first booking via info@schipholride.nl. We send you a compliant invoice with VAT itemised.
