Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg Transfer

Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg transfer: the easiest way to get there

Getting from Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg 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 Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg 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 Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg 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 is like, what to see there and where to stay, where you meet your driver at Frankfurt Airport, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.

How far is Strasbourg from Frankfurt Airport?

The distance from Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg is about 210 km by road, and the transfer usually takes around 2 hours 25 minutes. Journey time depends on the time of day: early mornings and late evenings are quickest, weekday rush hours and holiday weekends add time. Because the Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg 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 A5, and your driver adjusts it on the day for traffic and roadworks.

The A5 runs south along the Upper Rhine plain with the Black Forest hills to the east, then the B28 leads west from Appenweier to Kehl and across the Europe Bridge into Strasbourg.

If you are asking "how long does it take to get from Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg", the honest answer is 2 hours 25 minutes in normal traffic, and your driver will tell you on the day if anything on the route has changed.

Arriving at Frankfurt Airport (FRA)

Frankfurt Airport (FRA) is one of Europe's largest hubs, about 12 km south-west of the centre, with Terminals 1 and 2 linked by a Skyline train and its own long-distance rail station.

Whichever hall you come out of, the routine for a Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg transfer is the same: collect your bags, clear passport control, switch on your phone, and follow the meeting instruction from your WhatsApp confirmation. Your driver already knows your flight has landed - every pickup at Frankfurt Airport is tracked against the live arrival time - so there is no need to call, though a message is always welcome.

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

Taxi or private transfer from Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg?

The airport taxi fare from Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg is unpredictable: meters, night tariffs, tolls and traffic all move it, and you only learn the total at the door. A pre-booked Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg 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 Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Strasbourg 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, 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 to Strasbourg: is there a bus, train or metro?

Public transport from Frankfurt Airport runs mainly into Frankfurt itself: the S8 and S9 S-Bahn run from the airport to the Hauptbahnhof in about 15 minutes, and the airport also has an ICE long-distance station - excellent if you continue to another city; a hotel in Westend or Sachsenhausen still needs a taxi or tram from there, which the car covers in one go. Reaching Strasbourg from there means a further connection with your luggage, which is where a door-to-door car saves the most time and effort.

Many of our guests have tried the public route into Strasbourg 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 Frankfurt Airport to Strasbourg transfer starts at the arrivals door and ends at the reception desk, and the fixed price covers the whole vehicle.

About Strasbourg

Strasbourg is the main city of Alsace in north-eastern France, on the Rhine border with Germany, about 220 km south of Frankfurt Airport. Strasbourg's historic centre, the Grande Île, is an island ringed by the river Ill and listed by UNESCO, with a soaring pink sandstone Gothic cathedral at its heart. The Petite France quarter has half-timbered houses, canals and covered bridges, while the German-era Neustadt adds grand avenues. The city is also a seat of the European Parliament and the Council of Europe. Visitors come for the cathedral, canal boat tours, Alsatian cuisine and its famous Christmas market, and arrive by car across the Rhine bridge from Kehl.

Things to do in Strasbourg

What to see in Strasbourg: Strasbourg Cathedral and its astronomical clock, Petite France quarter, Covered Bridges and Vauban Dam, European Parliament and European Quarter and Boat tours on the Ill. Ask the driver which to do first on the drive from Frankfurt Airport - they know the area, and the desk arranges transport for any of them later in your stay.

Frankfurt itself is within reach for a day: the Main Tower observation deck, the Museumsufer along the river and the Palmengarten - the same WhatsApp desk arranges the car there and back.

Where to stay in Strasbourg

Where you stay in Strasbourg makes no difference to the price of the transfer, which is fixed for the whole vehicle. The places most travellers choose: Grande Île, the historic centre, Petite France, Around the railway station and European Quarter near the institutions - and any other address is fine too.

The Grande Île is largely closed to cars and the city has a low-emission zone, so drivers use the nearest permitted drop-off point to your hotel; carry your passport for the border crossing.

Meeting your driver at Frankfurt Airport

Your confirmation message on WhatsApp includes the meeting arrangement for Frankfurt Airport - it varies by airport, between an indoor meeting point, a specific exit and a driver with a sign at the arrivals door - along with your driver's name and number. With flight tracking, your driver is there the minute you land, and the waiting time is included in the fixed price.

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 Frankfurt Airport.

Our vehicles for the Strasbourg transfer

For this route we offer Sedan (1–3 passengers) and Minivan (1–7 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.

Families get child seats on request, and groups with a lot of luggage are matched to a vehicle with room to spare. Tell us on WhatsApp what you are bringing and we take care of the rest.

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

Who books the Strasbourg transfer

Who uses a private transfer to Strasbourg? Couples who would rather not start a holiday in a taxi queue; families who need child seats and space for a pushchair; groups of six to thirteen who want to arrive together in one vehicle; business travellers with a meeting the same day; and travellers landing at night, when public transport is thin and a fixed price is worth more than ever. Every one of them books the same way - a WhatsApp message - and gets the same written confirmation.

If your trip continues beyond Strasbourg - a day trip, a second city, a port or a return to Frankfurt Airport - the same desk arranges it in the same WhatsApp conversation, with the same fixed-price approach.

How to book your Strasbourg transfer

Booking is simple: fill in the form on this page or message us on WhatsApp with your flight number, the date, the number of passengers and your hotel in Strasbourg.

Good to know before you land at Frankfurt Airport

FRA has Terminals 1 and 2 (and a new Terminal 3) some distance apart - tell us your airline and flight number so the driver waits at the right arrivals hall.

Note the terminal or hall your flight uses at Frankfurt Airport, and if you change flights before travel tell the desk - the pickup is tracked against the flight number we hold.

Let us know the driver language you would prefer; it depends on the country, the city and the hour, so we cannot promise it, but we do our best to match it and the WhatsApp desk itself always works in Arabic and English.

Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Strasbourg transfers

Haqqi Tours is a travel company, not a taxi app: the people who confirm your Strasbourg 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.
