Taxi during rush hour

How much extra time to allow

• Add 30 minutes for a journey inside the Randstad in peak hours.
• Add 45 minutes for a route crossing Amsterdam, Utrecht or Rotterdam.
• Friday afternoon is the busiest period of the week.
• Rain reliably adds another 15–20 minutes.

Why a fixed price matters here

A taximeter charges for time as well as distance, so a traffic jam raises the amount you pay. With a price agreed in advance, the delay is our risk. That is precisely why fixed prices are most valuable on exactly the journeys people worry about most.

Planning around the peak

• Leaving before 06:30 or after 09:30 avoids the worst of it.
• For a flight, work backwards from check-in and add the peak margin.
• Give the driver a mobile number in case of a diversion.
• Do not stack appointments back to back on a peak-hour route.

How booking a taxi with Taxiritje.nl works

Prices are based on the actual road distance in kilometres between your pickup address and your destination, so you always know the amount before you book. Payment is online by card or iDEAL, and you receive a confirmation by email with the driver details, the pickup time and an invoice with VAT for business trips.

You book online in a few steps. Enter your pickup address with house number and postcode, add your destination and choose the date and time. The price you see is the price you pay: it already includes luggage, tolls, parking at the airport and waiting time, so there is no meter running during the journey and no surcharge at night or at the weekend.

Reservations are possible up to three hours before pickup, and you can book a one-way trip or a return in the same booking. For flights you enter your flight number; we then follow the actual landing time and include up to 80 minutes of free waiting time at the airport. For a pickup at a home or hotel address we include 15 minutes.

• Fixed price per journey, confirmed by email before the driver is assigned.
• Sedan or estate car for 1-4 passengers, minibus for 5-8 passengers.
• Extra stops along the way can be added while booking.
• Changes and cancellations online up to 24 hours before pickup; call 085 060 7086 within 24 hours.
