Paris airport transfers: planning your private journey

To organise a private transfer between Paris and an airport, start by providing your flight, address and number of travellers. A private transfer is arranged for your group, with an agreed pickup and destination. Here is the information that makes your departure or arrival easier.

Which airport should I specify?

Provide the exact airport and terminal when known. We organise journeys to and from Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Orly, Beauvais-Tillé and Le Bourget. Include your flight number so we can prepare your welcome.

Preparing a departure from Paris

Share your home, hotel or office address and flight time. Pickup should allow time for the journey, airport formalities and your airline’s requirements. Mention a very early departure, a group or bulky luggage so we can organise the service.

Your welcome on arrival

Your flight number allows us to track your arrival and organise pickup. Your welcome includes a tablet displaying your name and assistance with luggage. For airport transfers, 60 minutes of waiting time are included after landing. Read our transfer arrangements and inform the team of any unexpected changes.

Saloon or van for your transfer?

The choice depends on passengers and luggage. The E-Class and S-Class accommodate up to 3 passengers and 2 suitcases; the V-Class up to 7 passengers and 7 suitcases, depending on their size. For a child seat or special equipment, specify your request and check availability. Explore our fleet.

Book the return and confirm the cost

You can arrange a one-way or return journey. Provide the timing of each journey, even if the return address differs. The transfer price is quoted according to the vehicle and itinerary, before confirmation.

Your questions

Is the transfer shared with other travellers?

The service described here is a private transfer arranged for the passengers included in your booking.

What details are needed for an airport welcome?

The airport, flight number, date, terminal if known, useful contact details and destination address.

Can I travel directly to a hotel or train station?

Yes. Specify the drop-off address or train station and the time of your connection.

Normandy excursion from Paris: choosing your itinerary

Normandy excursion from Paris: choosing your itinerary

Normandy excursion from Paris: choosing your itinerary

For a Normandy excursion from Paris, first decide what you would like to discover: the D-Day remembrance sites, the coast or Mont-Saint-Michel. These destinations are far apart. Focusing on one area allows you to enjoy the visits and plan a realistic return journey.

The D-Day landing beaches

A day can be dedicated to Omaha Beach, Pointe du Hoc and the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, with a museum visit if time allows. Allow approximately 3 to 3½ hours from Paris to reach the main sites, depending on your departure point, destination and traffic. Check opening times and access conditions before visiting.

Deauville, Trouville and Honfleur

The Côte Fleurie is ideal for exploring the coast, enjoying walks and discovering town centres. Choose stops that suit your pace and allow time for lunch. Travelling from Paris to Deauville generally takes 2½ to 3 hours, depending on traffic.

Mont-Saint-Michel

The village, abbey and views over the bay make a full itinerary in their own right. Allow approximately 4 to 4½ hours from Paris, depending on traffic, followed by time to reach and explore the site. An early departure or a stay of several days may allow a more comfortable pace. Any outing into the bay requires suitable arrangements with a qualified professional.

Prepare your visits and transport

Check opening times, book any required tickets and share confirmed appointments with our team. Tickets, meals and guides should be arranged separately unless explicitly confirmed. Your chauffeur provides transport and does not replace a tourist guide.

Explore our excursions or long-distance transfer options. Specify the number of travellers, stops and preferred duration so we can prepare a quote.

Your questions

Can I visit everything in one day?

It is better to choose one area. Combining Mont-Saint-Michel, the D-Day beaches and several coastal towns in a single day would leave little time for visits.

Can the chauffeur stay at the destination?

Yes, as part of an hourly booking arranged and confirmed with our team.

Are visits included in the quote?

The transport quote specifies what it covers. Check tickets, meals and any guides separately.

After Paris 2024: a chauffeur for your sporting events

After Paris 2024: a chauffeur for your sporting events

After Paris 2024: a chauffeur for your sporting events

The Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games have ended. Advice on planning journeys remains useful for a match, tournament or another sporting event in Paris and the Île-de-France region. This guide helps you organise transport according to the venue, timings and permitted access on the day.

Confirm the venue and access conditions

Check the venue address, opening times and the organiser’s instructions. Drop-off areas may differ from the main entrance. Share the information you have with our team and allow time for security checks, walking and traffic.

Organise passengers and vehicles

Specify the number of passengers, departure points and any luggage. A saloon or V-Class may suit your group; multiple vehicles can also be considered. Explore our fleet and indicate whether travellers need pickup from a hotel, train station or airport.

Prepare the return after the event

The end time of a match may vary and the surrounding area can become busy quickly. Agree on an accessible meeting point and a contact who can be reached. Discuss waiting conditions and possible timing changes with our team. Private transport does not guarantee entry to restricted areas or priority under traffic restrictions.

Choose the appropriate service

Transfers at agreed times are suitable for the outward and return journeys. Hourly chauffeur hire can cover several stops during the booked period. If you are arriving from elsewhere, also prepare your airport and train station transfers.

Share your itinerary to receive a quote. Event tickets and on-site welcome services are not included unless explicitly agreed.

Your questions

Can I use this page to book transport for the Paris 2024 Olympics?

No. That event has ended. This page now provides advice on planning transport to sporting events.

Can the chauffeur wait during the event?

This can be arranged as part of hourly hire, according to the agreed duration and conditions.

Is access to the sports venue guaranteed?

Access rules are set by the organiser and the authorities. The drop-off point is planned according to permitted options.

Visiting Champagne cellars from Paris: planning your day

Visiting Champagne cellars from Paris: planning your day

Visiting Champagne cellars from Paris: planning your day

A day visiting Champagne cellars from Paris should be planned around the visits you most want to enjoy. Reims, Épernay, Champagne houses and wine estates offer different experiences. Choose your stops and their times before arranging transport.

Choose between Reims and Épernay

Reims combines heritage, the cathedral and visits to Champagne houses. Épernay and the vineyard villages offer other opportunities to explore. For a single day, focus on one area or a few nearby stops to leave enough time for visits.

Book visits and tastings

Contact your chosen house or estate directly to check available slots, languages, duration, tasting conditions and access arrangements. Reservations and times vary: confirm your tickets before finalising the itinerary. A cellar visit and tasting are not automatically included in a transport service.

Build a realistic itinerary

Allow for travel between visits, a lunch break and some flexibility for the return. The journey between Paris and Reims generally takes around 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours, depending on traffic and your departure point. One well-chosen visit and a second stop can make for a more enjoyable day than an overcrowded itinerary.

Tell our team about bookings that are already confirmed. A vineyard visit, restaurant or village stop should be incorporated into the schedule, rather than added without checking journey times.

A transfer or a chauffeur throughout the day?

A transfer is suitable for reaching an address and arranging a return at a set time. Hourly chauffeur hire allows you to organise journeys between locations during the agreed period. Explore our chauffeur excursions and Paris–Reims and Champagne journeys.

Choose your vehicle according to passengers and luggage, then share your stops to receive a personalised transport quote.

Your questions

Are cellar visits included in the transport service?

Tickets, tastings and meals must be checked separately. Any additional service must be explicitly confirmed in your itinerary.

Can I visit several Champagne houses in one day?

Yes, if the booked times and journey durations allow them to be combined.

Can I plan a stay of several days?

Yes. Share the dates, stops and transport requirements so our team can assess the itinerary.

Chauffeur pricing per kilometre: estimating your journey cost

Chauffeur pricing per kilometre: estimating your journey cost

Chauffeur pricing per kilometre: estimating your journey cost

A chauffeur price per kilometre provides a reference point, but does not always describe the full price of a chauffeured journey. Duration, vehicle, stops and pickup arrangements also matter. When planning travel in Paris, Île-de-France or another region, compare the total cost of the service and what is included.

Why distance alone is not enough

Two journeys of the same length can have different requirements. An airport pickup involves different arrangements from a departure from home. A direct journey does not use the chauffeur’s time in the same way as several appointments with waiting time. A calculation based only on kilometres can therefore overlook part of the itinerary.

Three details to provide

Your itinerary

Specify exact addresses, requested stops and any return journey. A detour or extra stop can change the service required.

The time required

Provide departure times, appointments and waiting time at the destination. For a day with several journeys, consider hourly chauffeur hire.

Your vehicle

Choose a saloon or van according to your preferred comfort, passengers and luggage. Explore the E-Class, S-Class and V-Class before making your request.

How do I compare a price per kilometre with a fixed fare?

To compare a per-kilometre offer with a fixed transfer fare, use the same departure point, destination and vehicle. Check charges quoted separately: waiting time, parking, tolls or special requests. The comparison should use an amount that covers the complete itinerary.

At Benzo Paris, we assess your route to prepare a quote provided before confirmation. We do not publish a universal price per kilometre, as it could give an amount that does not reflect your booking.

When should I choose hourly chauffeur hire?

For several meetings, shopping or a day of visits, an hourly chauffeur lets you plan a period of service. Specify your planned journeys, area and times, then check the included mileage and excess mileage conditions in the quote.

For a direct journey to a city in France, our long-distance service is suitable for a one-way or return trip. For a visit with a chauffeur staying at the destination, also explore our excursions.

Information needed for an accurate quote

Gather your departure point, destination, date, time, number of passengers and luggage details. Add stops, a flight or train number if needed, and the preferred duration for hourly hire. Our private chauffeur prices in Paris guide explains other points to check before booking.

Request your transport quote

Share your itinerary. Our team will provide a personalised proposal before confirmation.

This form sends a quote request. No payment or automatic booking confirmation takes place at this stage.

Your questions

Is there one price for every journey?

No. The proposed amount depends on your itinerary, vehicle and service arrangements. Request a quote that matches your plans.

Is a shorter journey necessarily cheaper?

Distance is one factor, but it is not enough to compare services with different durations, vehicles or pickup conditions.

Are stops taken into account?

Yes. Include planned stops in your request so the quote covers the complete journey.

Can I calculate the price using the form?

The form lets you send us your journey details. Our team then prepares your quote; it is not an instant price calculator.
