How to get to De Kuip by taxi and back after the match?

Good to know before you travel

If you know the area, preferably enter an exact address as the pick-up location. This allows the driver to drive directly to that spot. If that's not possible or the area is closed off, the driver will contact you by phone to arrange an accessible meeting point together. This also applies to Ahoy, De Kuip and festivals.

Book a return trip in one go

Book online at least 3 hours in advance. For the outward journey, choose a time that ensures you arrive well before kick-off; it's busy around the stadium just before a match.

For the return journey, choose a time half an hour to an hour after the final whistle. By then, the biggest rush will have subsided.

What to look out for after the match?

After the match, roads around the stadium are sometimes temporarily closed.

• •Walk to an agreed spot away from the crowds.
• •Keep your phone to hand for contacting the driver.
• •For 5 to 8 people, choose a taxi bus.

Why planning this in advance makes a difference

The question “how to get to De Kuip by taxi and back after the match” usually doesn't arise out of nowhere. You want to arrive on time, avoid surprises, and know what to expect on the day itself. For a busy destination, many visitors arrive around the same time and often leave simultaneously. The last few metres of the journey therefore sometimes require more planning than the long route to get there.

The best preparation aligns with your own situation. A recognisable address is more practical than a general description of an area or neighbourhood. If you know the area, it’s best to choose an exact address. Otherwise, the driver can contact you by phone to agree on an easy meeting point.

How to apply this to your own journey

Just before departure, check the latest information from the venue or organiser. Road closures and temporary traffic measures can change. Also, keep your phone charged and reachable around the agreed pick-up time. Use the details of the actual traveller, even if someone else makes the booking.

After calculating, take a moment to check all the details before you pay. This way, the practical information from this article won't just be theory, but will lead to a clearly and calmly prepared journey.

In short

Book your return trip simultaneously and choose a pick-up spot away from the crowds: that way, you'll be home quickly after the match.
