Private Airport Transfers in Berlin

Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) opened in 2020 and serves as the single gateway for Germany's capital — one of Europe's most culturally rich and visited cities. Located 18 km south of the city centre, BER handles flights from across Europe and beyond. Whether you're heading to a hotel near the Brandenburg Gate, an apartment in Prenzlauer Berg or a venue in Mitte, a private transfer with LocalsRide means a fixed price, a professional driver in arrivals, and a direct ride to your door.

Transfers start from €35 — fixed price, confirmed at booking. No meter, no hidden fees, no surge pricing.

Why Choose a Private Transfer in Berlin?

BER's S-Bahn reaches the city centre but requires connections for most hotel districts and is impractical with luggage after long flights. At night, connections become infrequent. With LocalsRide your price is fixed before you board, your driver is at arrivals when you land, and you reach your specific address without transfers or waiting.

• Business & conference visitors — direct to ICC Berlin, Messe Berlin or CityCube; VAT invoice provided
