Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre transfer: the easiest way to get there

The best way to get from Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre depends on what you are carrying and who you are travelling with, but for almost everyone arriving with luggage, family or after a long flight, a pre-booked private transfer is the answer. Haqqi Tours' Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre airport transfer is met at arrivals, priced in advance and driven by someone who does this route every week.

This page covers everything travellers ask about the Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre 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 Strasbourg City Centre in Strasbourg is like, where to stay and eat, when to travel, where you meet your driver at Strasbourg Airport, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.

Arriving at Strasbourg Airport (SXB)

Strasbourg Airport (SXB) is at Entzheim, about 12 km south-west of central Strasbourg, around 20 minutes by car or about 10 minutes by train shuttle to the central station; Colmar is about 70 km south by road.

A little knowledge of Strasbourg Airport makes the arrival calmer. Note which terminal or hall your flight uses, keep your phone charged for the WhatsApp thread, and expect the driver to be exactly where the confirmation said - by the arrivals exit with a name board, or at the airport's designated meeting point. From there it is a short walk to the car and the Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre drive begins.

Searches for "SXB to Strasbourg City Centre" or "SXB airport transfer" land here for a reason: SXB is the airport code for Strasbourg Airport, and this is the private-car service that connects it with Strasbourg City Centre.

Taxi or private transfer from Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre?

An airport taxi from Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre means finding the official rank, waiting your turn, and paying whatever the meter shows at the end - more at night, more in traffic, and sometimes more if the driver takes the long way. A private transfer from Haqqi Tours replaces all of that with one agreed price for the whole car, confirmed in writing on WhatsApp before you fly.

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 Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Strasbourg City Centre 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 Strasbourg City Centre, 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.

Public transport from Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre: is there a bus, train or metro?

A train shuttle links the airport with the central station in about 10 minutes, and trams cover the city; high-speed trains reach Paris in about 1 h 50, and Colmar is about 30 minutes by regional train. A private car is the easiest choice with luggage, or for Alsace villages and the Black Forest, where public transport is limited.

Many of our guests have tried the public route into Strasbourg City Centre once and booked the car ever after. The difference is not only speed but effort: no ticket machines in a foreign language, no stairs with suitcases, no working out the last mile to the hotel. A private Strasbourg Airport to Strasbourg City Centre transfer starts at the arrivals door and ends at the reception desk, and the fixed price covers the whole vehicle.

Meeting your driver at Strasbourg Airport

Where you meet your driver depends on Strasbourg Airport: 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 Strasbourg Airport.

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.

The vehicle is chosen before the confirmation, not at the kerb, so there is no surprise at the door of Strasbourg Airport: what we agreed on WhatsApp is what is waiting, and if your luggage looks like it needs a bigger vehicle we say so before you pay.

Good to know before you land at Strasbourg Airport

Send us your flight number and hotel address; much of the Grande Île is pedestrian or reserved for trams, so the driver may stop at the nearest permitted street.

Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Strasbourg City Centre transfers

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.
