Airport transfer
Zurich Airport transfers, door to door.
An airport transfer is not the same thing as a taxi ride. It is a fixed journey between two known points, booked ahead, priced ahead, and planned around a flight. That makes it the easiest part of a trip to get right, and the most annoying part to get wrong.

What a private transfer actually gets you
The alternative to a private transfer is either a shared shuttle or a train and a taxi at the far end. Both work, and for a solo traveller with hand luggage they are often the sensible choice.
A private transfer earns its cost in the situations where they do not: three or more of you, real luggage, a small child, a late arrival, a destination the trains reach slowly, or a morning where being calm matters more than being frugal. One vehicle, one driver, from the door to the door.
Both directions, planned differently
An arrival is about tracking: we watch the flight, we wait, we adjust. A departure is about arithmetic: how long the drive takes at that hour, how long check-in and security will take for your airline and destination, how much slack you want.
We do that second calculation with you rather than for you. Tell us the flight time and we will suggest a pickup time and explain the reasoning, so you can add a margin if you are the kind of traveller who likes one.
Where transfers usually go
Into Zurich itself, most often: hotels around the Hauptbahnhof and Bahnhofstrasse, the business districts, addresses across the city and the lake communities.
But a large share of airport work is long-distance, because a mountain resort at the end of a ten-hour flight is exactly where a private car makes the most difference. The winter destinations have their own pages.
- Zurich city hotels, homes and offices
- Zug, Baden, Winterthur and the surrounding cantons
- Davos and Klosters
- St. Moritz and the Engadin
- Lucerne and central Switzerland
- Interlaken and the Bernese Oberland
The price is the price
We quote each transfer individually from the route, the time and what you are carrying, and that figure is what you pay. There is no meter, no per-minute charge for traffic and no surcharge appearing at the end.
If your plans change (a different flight, an extra passenger, a stop on the way), tell us and we will requote before the day, not after it.
Booking a transfer
Message +41 77 259 19 78 on WhatsApp with the airport, the other end, the date and the flight number if you have one. We reply personally with the price and the plan.
For a busy week (Christmas, the February school holidays, a large conference), book earlier than you think you need to. There is one car.
Questions
Common questions
Do you provide private airport transfers?
Yes. Every transfer is private: the vehicle carries your party only, and it goes directly from the pickup point to the destination with no other stops unless you ask for one.
How far in advance should I book a transfer?
A few days is comfortable for most dates. For peak winter weeks and major conference dates, book as early as you can. We operate a single vehicle, so a date can genuinely be full.
Can you transfer me from the airport to a ski resort?
Yes. Davos, Klosters, St. Moritz, Interlaken and the rest of the Swiss resorts are all regular runs, straight from arrivals with your skis in the back.
What if I need a stop on the way?
That is fine: a supermarket before a chalet, a ski hire, dropping someone at a different address. Mention it when you book so it is in the price rather than a surprise on the day.
Is the price per person or per vehicle?
Per vehicle. The quote covers the journey and everyone in the car, so a group of four pays the same as one person travelling alone.
