Your transfer to Aschaffenburg
Aschaffenburg is the first Bavarian city east of Frankfurt, about 50 km from the airport. Trains usually require a change in Frankfurt or Hanau, while a car takes you there directly in around 40 minutes.
With a fixed price per vehicle, a private transfer is a good option for families, colleagues and anyone with heavy luggage.
Route
The drive follows the A3 motorway east from the airport, past Offenbach and Seligenstadt. About 50 km, normally 35 to 45 minutes. Roadworks on the A3 are common, so we always build in a buffer for departures.
Who uses this route
Families from the Lower Main region, business travellers visiting local manufacturers and logistics companies, and students at the Technical University of Applied Sciences all ride with us.
Drivers speak English, help with luggage and can hold a company sign at pickup.
Cheaper than parking
Parking at Frankfurt Airport for one or two weeks can cost a lot. A return transfer often costs about the same, without the stress of driving and finding your car after a long trip.
Spessart and the Main valley
Aschaffenburg is the gateway to the Spessart, a large forested upland with castles, half-timbered villages and long-distance hiking trails. Wine lovers head south along the river Main to Klingenberg and Miltenberg, known for red wine and historic market squares. We can take you from Frankfurt Airport straight to your guesthouse in the region.
For a weekend city break, the old town of Aschaffenburg is compact: the palace, the Pompejanum and the basilica are all within a short walk of each other.
Early departures on the A3
Holiday flights from Frankfurt often leave between 6 and 7 a.m. From Aschaffenburg we usually suggest a pickup about two and a half hours before departure, leaving time for check-in and security. The A3 is quiet at that hour, so the drive is short and relaxed.
No more parking worries
For many people in Aschaffenburg, the hardest part of a holiday is deciding where to leave the car. Parking at Frankfurt Airport is expensive, and the cost adds up over two weeks. With a transfer, your car stays at home and you avoid the airport parking shuttle entirely.
A former archbishops' residence
For centuries Aschaffenburg was the second residence of the Archbishops of Mainz. Johannisburg Palace holds a painting gallery and the world's largest collection of cork architectural models. The Schöntal park in the town centre is a lovely place for a walk after your journey.
Logistics and industry
The Lower Main area is a hub for logistics, mechanical engineering and electronics. Companies in Aschaffenburg, Grossostheim and Alzenau host engineers and customers from around the world. We meet them in Frankfurt, drive them to the plant and return them after their visit. Corporate accounts include a dedicated contact, monthly invoices and the option to send booking confirmations directly to your guests.
Travelling with children
The short drive makes the transfer ideal for families. Children travel in suitable seats, nobody has to carry cases through stations, and on your return the driver is waiting while you collect your bags.
Arriving at Frankfurt
Add your flight number when booking. We track the flight and send the driver for the actual landing time. You then have 60 minutes for passport control and baggage at no cost. Your driver waits in arrivals with a name sign and walks you to the car park next to the terminal. Aschaffenburg is 35 to 45 minutes away.
South along the Main
South of Aschaffenburg lie Grossostheim and Stockstadt, and further up the Main valley Obernburg, Erlenbach and Elsenfeld, home to several industrial companies. We collect from all of them, with drive times of 40 to 60 minutes. By train these journeys usually require two changes.
Late arrivals
If your flight lands late in the evening, there is no need to wait for a train. Your driver is ready in arrivals and you will be in Aschaffenburg in under an hour, at the same fixed price.
Older travellers
Drivers collect you at your door, carry luggage and help you in. At the airport they stop right at your airline's departure area. Folding wheelchairs and walkers are welcome if mentioned when booking.
Events
Summer concerts in the palace garden and autumn markets bring visitors to Aschaffenburg throughout the year; from Frankfurt they are in town within 40 minutes.
Payment
Pay online or by invoice; your receipt arrives by email.
