private airport transfer amsterdam

[marieg88]

Hi, we're thinking about using a private transfer from the Amsterdam airport to our hotel, reverse after the cruise. Does anyone have any recommendations?

  An  on line search showed a wide variety of prices. After a long flight, public transport is not appealing even though much cheaper.

thx for any info

we're going from the airport to the Marriott in Amsterdam , then the reverse after our cruise.

The Marriot has a bus stop just across the (level) bridge in front of the hotel, Leidseplein. The Airport Express (line 397) stops there, you can pre-buy return tickets online for 11,25 Euro each. 

For 22,50 Euro total two return tickets, carrying your own luggage and a small walk versus 40-45 Euro I think one way with a taxi. Both leave from the general area in front of the Schiphol Plaza (Taxi rank/B7 and the bus from B15-19).

 

It's an airport bus with less stops, airport employees and tourists and depending on your times of travel (late at night i.e.) I would suggest the bus, only opting for a taxi if you desire a in front drop off and have issues with carrying your luggage. https://www.connexxion.nl/amsterdam-airport-express/1241

 

Taxis are convenient for the some of the other hotels and spots in Amsterdam, don't get me wrong at that.

thxs for the info. After a long overseas flight, not much in the mood for dealing with luggage on a bus. In our "younger" days didn't think twice about it but not now :)

I used the Schiphol Hotel Shuttle last September and would do so again.  Easy to find just outside the airport.  I even got in early and they were able to take me into town early.
