Your taxi from Valkenburg to Schiphol Airport

Tucked into the Heuvelland hills of South Limburg, the tourist town of Valkenburg aan de Geul lies 224 kilometres from Schiphol. SchipholRide quotes one fixed total for the trip: €305 in Comfort (VW Passat or similar), €380 in Premium (Mercedes E-Class or similar), €395 for the Van carrying 5-8 people (V-Class or similar) and €650 in VIP (S-Class or similar).

Off-peak you are on the road for around 177 minutes; in the rush hour that can run towards 230. For a journey straight across the country, a figure fixed in advance is reassuring: VAT, luggage and the Schiphol parking charges are included and there is no night supplement.

Whether you are flying home after a Heuvelland holiday or setting out yourself, collection at your hotel or house spares a long rail journey with several changes. Cancelling is free at least 24 hours before pick-up.

Your route and departure time

The route from Valkenburg runs via the A79 towards Maastricht and Heerlen, joining the A76 and turning north onto the A2 at the Kerensheide or Het Vonderen interchange. The A2 then leads past Eindhoven, 's-Hertogenbosch and Utrecht, until the driver bears towards Amsterdam at Oudenrijn or Holendrecht and reaches the A4 to the terminal via the A9 and the Badhoevedorp interchange.

Off-peak this takes around 177 minutes. The pinch points on this long A2 corridor sit around Eindhoven, Den Bosch and Utrecht; rush-hour queues can lift the journey towards 230 minutes. Early flights leave well before the morning rush, and the hilly approach from Valkenburg itself is factored into the pick-up time.

Staying at a hotel in Valkenburg, keep the high season in mind: the tourist centre around the castle ruin and the caves can be busy and partly car-free then. Give your hotel or home address, and the driver finds a suitable spot to pull up.

The route follows the A79 to the A76 and then the A2 heading north. A European flight at 07:00 needs 2 hours ahead, so 05:00 at Schiphol, and for that the driver collects you at 01:45. That is about 177 minutes of off-peak driving, with 15 minutes of slack built in.

An intercontinental flight at 19:00 means being inside 3 hours ahead, at 16:00, following Schiphol's advice. Around Eindhoven, Den Bosch and Utrecht the afternoon rush can stretch the ride to about 230 minutes, which is why the driver comes as early as 11:55, with 15 minutes of slack.

The hilly approach out of Valkenburg itself is part of that planning. From Houthem, Berg en Terblijt, Schin op Geul or Sibbe you pay the same fixed fare, €305 in Comfort, and no surcharge is added at any hour.

Pickup in and around Valkenburg

Collection covers the whole of Valkenburg aan de Geul: the centre with the castle ruin and the caves, and the villages of Houthem, Berg en Terblijt, Schin op Geul and Sibbe. Hotels and holiday addresses in and around Valkenburg fall under the same fixed price, convenient when you head for Schiphol after a stay in the Heuvelland.

In high season the tourist centre can be crowded and partly closed to cars; give your hotel or home address at booking and the driver finds the handiest place to pull up.

Pickup areas include

  • Valkenburg-Centrum
  • Houthem
  • Berg en Terblijt
  • Schin op Geul
  • Sibbe

Stations: Station Valkenburg, Station Houthem-Sint Gerlach

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

Fares & booking

What do I pay for the ride Valkenburg to Schiphol?

In Comfort the fare is €305, with VAT, cases and airport parking within the price. Roomier or more luxurious travel costs €380 in Premium, €395 in the Van (five to eight seats) or €650 in VIP. Even at 224 kilometres, the amount stands fixed beforehand; queues on the A2 alter nothing.

Pickup & journey time

Can I be collected at my hotel in Valkenburg for Schiphol?

Yes, your driver picks you up at your hotel, holiday home or campsite in and around Valkenburg, at the same fixed price of €305 in Comfort. Convenient after a Heuvelland stay when you would rather not drag luggage to the station first.

Give the address of your accommodation at booking and the pick-up time is matched to your flight.

Am I collected in Houthem or Berg en Terblijt as well?

Yes: Houthem, Berg en Terblijt, Schin op Geul and Sibbe lie in the municipality of Valkenburg aan de Geul and pay the same €305 in Comfort. There too the car arrives at the door, just as in the centre. State your address in the booking and the pick-up time is matched to your flight.

How much time does the journey Valkenburg to Schiphol take?

On clear roads, allow around 177 minutes for the 224 kilometres, just shy of three hours. In the rush hour it heads towards 230 minutes through the A2 near Eindhoven, Den Bosch and Utrecht. The driver plans early flights before the morning crush, with the winding Heuvelland approach already calculated in.

Am I also collected in Schin op Geul or Sibbe?

Yes, like Houthem and Berg en Terblijt, Schin op Geul and Sibbe are part of the pick-up area, with the same fixed fare: €305 in Comfort and €380 in Premium. Enter your full address when booking. The driver takes the hilly roads to the A79 and from there via the A76 to the A2.

Can I be picked up in central Valkenburg during the high season?

Yes, although the tourist centre is busy and partly car-free then. Give your hotel or home address when booking and note in the comments where the driver can stop. A suitable spot close by is then found. For an early flight you leave at a quiet hour anyway, as the pick-up for a European flight at 07:00 is 01:45.

Passengers & return journeys

And if my return flight towards Valkenburg is delayed?

The arrival is monitored, so the driver works from your actual landing time rather than the scheduled one. After landing a free hour is available for the baggage hall. Even arriving at night the fare stays the same €305, with no supplement for the late hour.

Valkenburg–Schiphol with a group after a stay in the Heuvelland?

For 5 to 8 people there is the Van, a Mercedes V-Class or similar, with room for a whole party's cases. From the Heuvelland the whole vehicle is €395, VAT and Schiphol parking and drop-off costs included. Give the address of your hotel or holiday home, and the driver pulls up there.

Off-peak you reach the departures hall after about 177 minutes.
