About this route
From Schiphol to Amsterdam
Landed at Schiphol and heading into Amsterdam? A taxi from Schiphol to Amsterdam with SchipholRide is a fixed price from €50 (Comfort), and most addresses are 20 to 30 minutes away. No queue at the taxi rank and no train with heavy suitcases: your driver is waiting in the arrivals hall after landing. The amount you see when booking is the total to your door, whether that is the canal ring, Zuid, De Pijp or a hotel near Leidseplein.
From the airport the A4 brings you to Amsterdam-Zuid in about 20 minutes and to the city centre within half an hour; in the evening rush hour around the A10 ring it can take a little longer. For many travellers that beats public transport: no change at Amsterdam Centraal followed by a tram, but door to door to the Zuidas, Noord or an address near the RAI. Travelling as a group? A Van for up to 8 passengers drives the same route for one fixed price per ride.
Your driver is ready when you arrive
From the aircraft you walk past baggage reclaim and passport control into Schiphol Plaza. Your driver waits at the pickup point agreed in advance, so there is no searching among the taxi companies at the rank. Before landing you receive the driver's name, licence plate and phone number. Delayed? Your flight number is tracked live, the driver waits automatically, and the first 60 minutes after landing are free. Plenty of time for your luggage, even in the middle of the night.

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

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about this route
Where do I find my driver after landing at Schiphol?+
At the agreed pickup point at Arrivals 1 or 2 on Schiphol Plaza, depending on your airline. Beforehand you receive a message with the name, licence plate and exact meeting point; if you do not spot each other straight away, the phone number in your confirmation gets you in touch. Prefer to be met inside the arrivals hall with a name board? Add Meet & Greet (+ €30, available with Premium, Van and VIP; included with VIP from Schiphol).
How much is a taxi from Schiphol to Amsterdam?+
Comfort from €50, Premium from €65, a Van for 5 to 8 passengers from €70 and VIP from €100: fixed fares to your address, including luggage and waiting time. Amsterdam city centre has its own fixed zone price; you see the exact amount when booking, before you pay. Seeing 'Schiphol taxi from 35 euro' online? Always check whether such from-prices apply to your address, your time and your luggage, and compare on the total. With SchipholRide the amount you see at booking is the final amount.
Is it easy to get a taxi at Amsterdam Airport?+
Yes. Schiphol Plaza has an official rank where you step into a licensed taxi; there you pay the meter fare and may queue at busy times. If you want certainty, book your Schiphol taxi in advance: the driver is then already waiting in the arrivals hall and the fare is fixed, even if your flight lands at night or at the last minute. You skip the queue and know beforehand who is driving and what the ride costs.
Which is cheaper from Schiphol, Uber or a fixed-price taxi?+
That depends on the moment. Ride-hailing apps use dynamic pricing: when the airport is busy (holidays, evenings, rain) the fare rises, and it is only known when you request the car. A fixed price is set days ahead and cannot change. For one traveller with hand luggage the difference is small; for a family with suitcases, a late landing or a hotel in the centre, the fixed total is usually the safer choice.
Can I book a return trip to Schiphol straight away?+
Yes. Add the return in the booking flow: you fill in the return date, time and your return flight number, and both rides are arranged at once at the same fixed price each way. For the return ride the driver drops you at the right departure hall.
