Arriving at the Amsterdam port on a Sunday….are taxis readily available and waiting?

thank you!

[Ine]

Yes, lots of taxis. However depending how many passengers need a cab at the same time, you might have to wait in line.

[macaroni]

Thank you…..we will be getting off as early as allowed…

If you go to the website I gave you you can easily check all those rates yourself. You will see chapters like Taxi in Amsterdam, taxi from Schiphol airport, taxi to Schiphol airport.

Any difference in price if we just go to the taxi line without reserving one?...I'll assume they'll be lined up waiting...right...regardless of the locations we'll be needing them?

Oficialy it should be the same, however sometimes  cabdrivers try or will to overcharge when more people are waiting in line. Also check with your hotel about this.

At the airport be sure to take an offical cab at the stand outside, often "cowboy drivers"will offer their service inside the terminal.

Website Ine listed is quoting me 67 euro. Other pre-books I have seen cost 50 euro for a 3 passenger sedan to 56 euro for a 6 pax minivan. All quotes were for 2 passengers. I'm looking at the end of august, AMS to Movenpick.

On the map it looks easy to walk to the central train station.  Is that reasonable to do or are there issues that I can't see?

[macaroni]

Yes, easy, but depends on how much luggage you have.

Yes it is walkable, just keep walking along the water and enter the station through the northern entrance. Depending your luggage of course.

Silly question... When booking a taxi online, do you give the arrival time of your flight and they add the time for luggage pick up and clearing customs or do I do it in the booking?,

If they know your flightnumber they know when to be there.  Even in case of delay.

I went to this website and booked. I had a few questions and emailed them from the contact link on their website; no response. I received a pdf confirmation from them in Dutch and asked for a translation. No response. I tried emailing the address on the website; address bounced back. I was concerned about not hearing back so I booked with another company. They are 42eros from airport to the Marriott.

just my suggestion and I hope you donot mind, that you could ask us (a few dutch members of CC react on those pages) for a translation of the contents of te pdf.   Enjoy your stay in Amsterdam and your cruise!

[Ashland]

I think we'll just rely on getting a taxi from AMS to our hotel and not worry about pre-booking transportation. I understand completely to go to the taxi line to do this just as we've done at many International airports.

Ine, Are Uber drivers allowed to pick up and drop off at the airport?

They are but not at the terminal. As far as I know they pick up at or near the parking area at the Sheraton airport hotel.
