OUR FARES AND PRICES
How Do We Calculate the Total Price for Our Long-Distance Taxis and Transfers?
We follow a simple principle: the longer the distance, the lower the price per mile/kilometer. Our standard rate is based on the fastest route calculated by Google Maps between your departure and arrival points. For one-way journeys, the total distance also includes the return trip to our base in central Paris.
You can find the exact, all-inclusive price for your transfer by sedan or van using our price calculator and booking form. For coach transfer prices, please contact us by filling out the contact form.
Conversion rates:
1 kilometer = 0.6214 mile
1 mile = 1.609 kilometer
Please note: The minimum distance for a booking is 30 km (19 mi). For shorter distances, a fixed price will apply.
We Offer Three Types of Tariffs:
1. One-Way: Standard rate based on distance per kilometer or mile.
2. Same day return: Pay only the outward fare plus a waiting charge for every 15 minutes. The return trip is free. This is the most economical option if you’re traveling to and from the same destination on the same day. The return drop-off address must be within 100 km (62 mi) zone around Paris.
3. Any other day return: multiply the one-way fare by two.
Waiting Charges:
If you require a taxi or transfer with waiting time or multiple stops—such as traveling to one city or address, where we wait for you before continuing to the next destination—a waiting charge will be added to your fare. Our waiting charges are quoted per hour, but you pay for every quarter of an hour you use. The waiting rates are as follows: Sedan/Station Wagon (SW): €60 per hour; Van: €75 per hour. For coach services, please contact us for details. Please note: Short stops of up to 15 minutes are not subject to waiting charges.
Travel to and from The United Kingdom
For journeys to and from the UK, the price shown on our instant quote and booking form does not include the Eurotunnel shuttle ticket nor the pet fee if you travel with an animal. The total cost of this transfer comprises a fixed part for our transportation service and a variable part for the Eurotunnel shuttle. A deposit equal to the Eurotunnel shuttle ticket price is required. You can view Eurotunnel shuttle ticket prices here.

EUROTUNNEL SHUTTLE AND BORDER CROSSING DETAILS
Customs Formalities Before Channel Crossing by Eurotunnel Shuttle
How Long Does It Take to Cross the Channel?
There are two primary ways to cross the Channel by taxi: Eurotunnel and ferry.
We usually use Eurotunnel for its speed and cost-effectiveness. The crossing itself takes just 35 minutes. However, including the recommended check-in time of one hour before the shuttle departure, the total crossing time is approximately 90 minutes.
What Information is Required for Border Crossing?
To speed up customs procedures, we must provide certain information for all passengers when purchasing Eurotunnel shuttle tickets. This is known as Advance Passenger Information (API).
The API for each passenger includes:
- Name and Surname
- Gender
- Date of birth
- Nationality
- Document type (usually passport)
- Document number
- Document issuing country
- Document expiry date
If you are traveling with a pet, we also need your pet’s name and microchip number, which will be verified at pet reception.
TERMS & CONDITIONS
Will I incur any extra charges if my plane is delayed?
No, we monitor your flight's progress and will adjust your vehicle's arrival time accordingly, ensuring there are no extra charges for delays.
What if my flight or train delay is more than one hour?
We understand that sometimes it could happen. If you anticipate that your flight or train will be delayed by more than an hour, please notify us as soon as possible via e-mail, SMS, or phone call. Depending on vehicle availability, we can either reschedule the start of our service to a later time or cancel it without any penalty.
Extra Charges and Tolls
All taxes, bridge and road tolls, and parking fees are included in the instant online quotes provided on our website, except for journeys to and from the UK. For trips involving the UK, the Eurotunnel shuttle ticket is not included in the quoted price. This ticket cost will be added separately.

For pickups within the Paris region (62 miles around Paris): Cancellations are accepted without charge if made at least 2 hours before the scheduled transfer.
For pickups outside the Paris region: Cancellations are accepted without charge if made at least 24 hours before the scheduled transfer.
No-show: A 100% charge applies if you do not show up for the transfer.
Cancellations must be communicated via email or phone, especially if the transfer is imminent.
Can I book a transfer now and make changes or add a stop later?
Yes, you can request changes to your booking via email. If the transfer is imminent, please call us directly. Changes to your itinerary can be made free of charge. However, please note that any modifications to the route may affect the distance and, consequently, the price.
