Full Description

Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer: the easiest way to get there

Getting from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls should be the easy part of the journey. With a private transfer it is: you tell us your flight number and your hotel, we confirm the price of the Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer on WhatsApp, and on the day a driver meets you at the arrivals hall and takes you straight to the door. No taxi rank, no ticket machines, no changing between buses with suitcases.

This page covers everything travellers ask about the Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls route: how far it is and how long it takes, whether an airport taxi, public transport or a private transfer is the better choice, what Krimml Waterfalls is like, what to see there and where to stay, where you meet your driver at Zell am See, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.

How far is Krimml Waterfalls from Zell am See?

The distance from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls is about 55 km by road, and the transfer usually takes around 1 hour. Traffic is the only variable - our drivers know the route and the times to avoid, and they choose the fastest way on the day. Because the Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer price is fixed in advance, a slow drive never costs you more, which is the first difference from an airport taxi on the meter.

The fastest road route runs via the B168 and B165, and your driver adjusts it on the day for traffic and roadworks.

The route follows the B168 west through Mittersill along the upper Salzach valley, then the B165 to Krimml, with the Hohe Tauern peaks to the south.

For planning, count on 1 hour plus the time to collect your luggage and clear passport control at Zell am See; up to 60 minutes of waiting (90 at some airports) is included.

Pickup in Zell am See: hotel, address or port

A Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer by road is booked like any other: tell us where in Zell am See you are staying and when you would like to go, and a private car or van collects you at the door. There is no station to reach first and no timetable to fit - you set the departure time - and if you would like a stop on the way, for a viewpoint, a meal or a photograph, the desk quotes it as part of the same journey.

If you are arriving in Zell am See by ferry, bus or train and continuing to Krimml Waterfalls, give us the arrival time and the driver meets you at the port or station instead of the hotel - the same fixed price applies.

Taxi or private transfer from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls?

The airport taxi fare from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls is unpredictable: meters, night tariffs, tolls and traffic all move it, and you only learn the total at the door. A pre-booked Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer is the opposite - one fixed cost for the vehicle, however long the drive takes, with the price agreed before your trip.

For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Krimml Waterfalls involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.

There is also the question of trust. Our drivers know the hotels of Krimml Waterfalls, work on a fixed price, and never take a detour or add a "special fare" at the end. Your booking is confirmed by a real person on a WhatsApp desk that works in Arabic and English, and that same desk is reachable throughout your trip.

About Krimml Waterfalls

The Krimml Waterfalls are at the western end of the Pinzgau valley, beside the village of Krimml, about 55 km west of Zell am See. The Krimml Waterfalls are Austria's highest waterfalls, where the Krimmler Ache river plunges about 380 m in three great cascades inside the Hohe Tauern National Park. A well-made path climbs beside the falls through forest, with viewing platforms at every level, and the spray and roar are impressive even from the lowest viewpoint a few minutes from the car park. Above the falls the trail continues into the quiet Krimml Achental valley. A visitor centre explains the water and nature of the area. The drive from Zell am See follows the broad upper Salzach valley past small villages and meadows.

Things to do in Krimml Waterfalls

Once you have checked in, Krimml Waterfalls is worth exploring: Three-tiered falls, about 380 m in total, Waterfall trail with viewing platforms, Hohe Tauern National Park, Krimml Achental valley above the falls and Visitor centre on water and nature. Your driver can point some of them out on the way in, and the WhatsApp desk can arrange a car for a day out if you want to see more.

Where to stay in Krimml Waterfalls

Where you stay in Krimml Waterfalls makes no difference to the price of the transfer, which is fixed for the whole vehicle. The places most travellers choose: Krimml village, Mittersill, Neukirchen am Großvenediger and Zell am See - and any other address is fine too.

Wear sturdy shoes and a light rain jacket for the spray; the lowest falls are close to the car park, but reaching the top is a steep walk.

Meeting your driver at Zell am See

Where you meet your driver depends on Zell am See: a set meeting point inside arrivals, a designated exit, or a name board held just after customs. Rather than guess, we send the exact instructions with your WhatsApp confirmation - the meeting place, the driver's name and number, and what to do if you cannot see them. If you choose flight tracking, your driver is at arrivals the minute you land.

Up to 60 minutes of waiting is included (90 minutes at some airports), and if you are delayed at baggage or passport control a quick WhatsApp message keeps your driver informed. On the way back, the driver collects you from the hotel at an agreed time with enough margin for your flight from Zell am See.

Our vehicles for the Krimml Waterfalls transfer

For this route we offer Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers). The vans are Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, all recent, air-conditioned and cleaned between journeys, with proper luggage space rather than a crowded boot. Choose the vehicle by how many of you are travelling and how much luggage you bring; the desk will tell you if a larger vehicle would be more comfortable.

Child seats and booster seats are available on request - say the ages of the children when you book and we bring the right ones. Extra-large luggage, sports equipment and wheelchairs are all fine; just mention them so the right vehicle is sent.

Every vehicle is checked and cleaned between journeys, and the drivers know the hotels of Krimml Waterfalls and their side streets, so you are delivered to the right gate, not just the main road.

Who books the Krimml Waterfalls transfer

Families are our most frequent guests on this route: a private car means the children are strapped into proper seats, the pushchair goes in the back, and nobody is counting change for tickets. Groups of friends and extended families take the Sprinter or a minivan so the whole party travels together from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls on one fixed price. Older travellers book it for the door-to-door help with the bags, and couples for a calm start to the trip instead of a taxi queue.

If your trip continues beyond Krimml Waterfalls - a day trip, a second city, a port or a return to Zell am See - the same desk arranges it in the same WhatsApp conversation, with the same fixed-price approach.

How to book your Krimml Waterfalls transfer

A member of our team replies within minutes to confirm the price and the meeting point. Payment is arranged on WhatsApp as well, in whichever way suits you, and your confirmation is written down so nothing is left to memory.

Krimml Waterfalls to Zell am See: the return transfer

Many travellers also use the desk for a day trip or an onward transfer from Krimml Waterfalls; everything is arranged in the same WhatsApp chat.

The Krimml Waterfalls to Zell am See leg is the same fixed price, and the driver drops the bags at the right departures entrance so you are not hunting for the terminal yourself.

Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Krimml Waterfalls transfers

Haqqi Tours is a travel company, not a taxi app: the people who confirm your Krimml Waterfalls transfer are the same people you can message at midnight when the flight is late. The price is fixed and written down, the driver is a licensed professional who does this road regularly, the vehicle is what we said it would be, and if anything on the day is not as promised, one message to the desk puts it right.

Pickup options and waiting time

When you book on WhatsApp, you choose one of two pickup options for your arrival:

  • Flight tracking: your driver is at arrivals the minute your flight lands and waits for up to 60 minutes. If your flight lands at 2:00 pm, the driver is there at 2:00 pm.
  • Fixed time (no tracking): your driver arrives at a time you choose and waits for up to 60 minutes from that time. Send us your flight number and we check its real landing times over the past 10 days to recommend the best pickup time.

At most airports the included waiting time is 60 minutes; at some it is 90 minutes. We confirm the exact waiting time for your airport when you book with us on WhatsApp. After that, the driver cannot wait longer: the fixed price is based on one hour of airport parking and the driver's time, and with more than 30 transfers a day, every booking is scheduled back to back.

With flight tracking, normal delays are covered. If your flight is delayed by more than 5 hours, we cannot guarantee a new pickup at the last minute, because the new arrival time is uncertain and other transfers are already scheduled. Message us as soon as the delay is announced: we always do our best to rearrange, but it depends on the number of bookings that day. With a fixed-time pickup, the time slot is reserved for you and cannot be changed on the day, even if your flight is delayed or something unexpected happens.

Two hours before your flight lands, we send you your driver's name and phone number on WhatsApp. If you are still in the air, the message will be waiting for you as soon as you switch on your phone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Which road does the Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer take?

Usually the fastest route via the B168 and B165, about 55 km and around 1 hour in normal traffic. The driver checks traffic and roadworks on the day and takes whichever way is quickest; the price stays the same.

Is a private transfer cheaper than an airport taxi from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls?

Compare the whole cost, not the starting fare.

For anyone not travelling alone with a small bag, that figure is normally the cheaper one.

With luggage, a family or after a long flight, a pre-booked private transfer is the easiest and most comfortable way: door to door, no queue, no changes. Public transport can work for a solo traveller with a small bag, but it means tickets, transfers and stairs; an airport taxi means the meter.

Is there a bus, train or metro from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls?

Public transport options vary by airport and by the time of day. Whatever exists, it ends at a station rather than your hotel; the private Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer starts at the arrivals door and ends at the door of your accommodation, on one fixed price for the vehicle.

What happens if my flight to Zell am See is delayed?

It depends on the option you chose. With flight tracking, the driver is there when you actually land, for delays of up to 5 hours; beyond that, tell us straight away and we try to find a new time, without a guarantee. With a fixed pickup time, the slot is reserved for you and cannot be moved on the day, even if the flight is late.

Yes. The Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer runs around the clock, and our WhatsApp desk is answered day and night. Tell us the flight number and we plan the pickup for the real arrival time, whatever the hour.

If you are unsure, tell us how many passengers and bags you have and we recommend the right one.

Is the transfer private, or shared with other passengers?

Always private. We do not run shared shuttles: the car or van from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls carries your party only, leaves when you are ready, and goes straight to your address.

Can you provide child seats?

Yes - say the ages of the children when you book and the driver brings the right child seats or boosters at no extra charge. Please mention it in the WhatsApp conversation so the correct vehicle is sent.

Are tolls, parking and waiting time included in the price?

Yes. The fixed price for the Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer covers the vehicle, the driver, fuel, road tolls, airport parking and up to 60 minutes of waiting after your flight lands (90 at some airports). There is nothing to pay the driver on the day unless you have added something to the booking.

Can we stop on the way from Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls?

Usually, yes - a short stop for a shop, a sim card or a photo is no problem if you mention it when booking, and a longer stop or a sightseeing detour is quoted as part of the same transfer. Tell the desk what you have in mind and they confirm it in writing.

How far in advance should I book the Zell am See to Krimml Waterfalls transfer?

As soon as you have your flight - it takes a minute on WhatsApp and secures the vehicle you want. Same-day and next-day bookings are often possible too; message the desk with the flight number and they will tell you at once whether a car is available.
