Indulge in Maastricht's elegance with a SilverDrive chauffeur: a car reserved for you, a professional driver and a price fixed at booking, whether you are arriving for a congress, a gallery weekend or a private day in the south of Limburg. The driver handles the narrow streets of the old centre so you do not have to.

Maastricht's landmarks with your private driver

Begin at the Vrijthof, the city's best-known square, framed by cafes and by the Basilica of Saint Servatius, one of the oldest churches in the Netherlands, and the Gothic St John's Church with its red tower. From there the old town opens up: the Helpoort, the oldest surviving city gate in the country, and the Onze Lieve Vrouweplein with its basilica.

The Bonnefanten Museum, in Aldo Rossi's building on the Meuse, holds Old Masters and contemporary installations. The Stadspark runs along the medieval fortifications, and the caves of St Pietersberg, a labyrinth of old limestone quarries, can be visited on guided tours. In the evening, the streets around the Vrijthof and across the river in Wyck hold some of the best dining in the country.

Hourly hire keeps the car waiting between stops, our greet service welcomes guests at the hotel, station or airport, and business clients can pay on invoice. Combine Maastricht with Hasselt, Liège or Cologne on the same booking.

Why choose SilverDrive in Maastricht? The price is fixed at booking with no hidden fees, the fleet runs from the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and S-Class to the seven-seat V-Class, and every chauffeur is screened and English-speaking. Whether you travel alone or with a group, the car and driver are confirmed before you arrive.

A chauffeur service in Maastricht is a professional driver and a premium car booked in advance at a fixed price, for Maastricht Aachen Airport transfers, TEFAF and MECC events, business visits or cross-border trips to Belgium and Germany. SilverDrive provides it 24/7 with its own fleet, screened English-speaking chauffeurs and flight tracking on every airport pickup.

Maastricht sits at the southern tip of the Netherlands, wedged between Belgium and Germany, about 2.5 hours from Amsterdam. It is a border city first, and that shapes every journey. International visitors arrive through Schiphol, Brussels, Düsseldorf, Eindhoven or Maastricht Aachen Airport, and many leave Maastricht for Liège, Aachen or Cologne the same day. One chauffeur, one car and one agreed price across all of those borders is what a chauffeur service in Maastricht offers.

What our chauffeur service in Maastricht covers

The service covers three types of booking: airport transfers, event and business days, and hourly or multi-day hire across the Euregion. Each is quoted as one fixed price before you travel.

Airport transfers from five airports

Maastricht is unusual: five airports are within roughly 2.5 hours. Maastricht Aachen Airport (MST) in Beek is the closest, about 15 to 20 minutes north of the city, with its own private aviation facilities. Eindhoven Airport is about an hour away, Brussels Airport and Düsseldorf Airport about 1.5 hours, and Schiphol about 2.5 hours. Your chauffeur tracks the flight and meets you in arrivals. See our airport transfer service, and the guides to Eindhoven Airport, Brussels Airport, Düsseldorf Airport and Schiphol.

TEFAF, MECC and event days

TEFAF Maastricht, held every March at MECC Maastricht, brings more than 260 dealers from around 20 countries and an international audience of collectors, museum curators and advisers. Over the same days, hotels across South Limburg fill and the evenings run late. A business chauffeur on a multi-day booking keeps one driver with you between the fair, dinners in the old town and a hotel out in the hills. MECC also hosts conferences and trade events throughout the year.

Hourly and day hire

For university visits, meetings at the Maastricht UMC+ campus in Randwyck or a day in the South Limburg hills, hourly chauffeur hire keeps the car with you. Our guide to hourly chauffeur hire explains how waiting and timing work.

Where our chauffeurs take you in Maastricht

Maastricht’s centre is compact, with narrow streets and restricted access around the old town, so exact pickup points matter. These are the places we drive to most.

  • Vrijthof and the old town: the main square, hotels and restaurants, and the setting for André Rieu’s summer concerts each July.
  • MECC Maastricht and Randwyck: the exhibition centre for TEFAF and conferences, beside the Maastricht UMC+ hospital and university campus.
  • Wyck and Maastricht station: the district on the east bank of the Maas, with hotels and the railway station.
  • Céramique: the modern riverside district around the Bonnefanten museum.
  • Maastricht University: faculties spread across the inner city and Randwyck.
  • South Limburg: Valkenburg, the Heuvelland hills and country hotels a short drive outside the city.

For local events, opening times and venues, Visit Maastricht is the official tourism source.

Chauffeur service or taxi in Maastricht?

A local taxi suits a short ride across the city. A chauffeur service suits a flight, a border, a fair or a guest. The difference is that the car belongs to your schedule: booked for a named passenger, priced before you travel, waiting between stops and tracking your flight. For long journeys such as Maastricht to Schiphol or Düsseldorf, a fixed price also makes the cost clear before anyone sets off.

Choosing the right car

Every vehicle is SilverDrive’s own; browse the fleet for detail.

  • Mercedes-Benz E-Class: for one or two passengers on airport runs.
  • Mercedes-Benz S-Class: the executive standard for up to three passengers, and the natural choice for long drives to Schiphol.
  • Mercedes-Maybach S-Class: the flagship, well suited to TEFAF collectors and VIP guests.
  • Mercedes-Benz EQS and BMW i7: fully electric flagships.
  • Mercedes-Benz V-Class and EQV: up to seven passengers and seven cases.
  • Mercedes-Benz Sprinter VIP and Setra coach: delegations, conference groups and wedding guests.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a car from Maastricht to Schiphol cost?

It depends on the vehicle class and timing, so SilverDrive quotes it as one fixed price at booking that does not change afterwards. The drive is roughly 2.5 hours, mostly on the A2. Send your flight details through Book Now and you will see the full price before you commit.

How long does it take to drive from Maastricht to Düsseldorf Airport?

Roughly 1.5 hours in normal traffic, crossing into Germany near Aachen or Venlo depending on conditions. A chauffeur service makes this a single door-to-terminal journey with no change of vehicle at the border, at a price fixed when you book.

How do I get from Maastricht Aachen Airport to Eindhoven Airport?

By road the transfer takes about 1 hour, almost entirely on the A2. There is no direct rail link between the two airports, so a pre-booked car is the simplest option, especially with luggage or a tight connection. Your chauffeur tracks the arriving flight.

Is there Uber in Maastricht?

App-based ride-hailing is concentrated in the larger Randstad cities, and availability in Maastricht can be limited, so check the app before relying on it. Local taxis serve the station and the airport rank. A chauffeur service is booked in advance at a fixed price, which matters for early flights and TEFAF evenings.

Should I book a chauffeur early for TEFAF Maastricht?

Yes. TEFAF Maastricht takes place every March at MECC Maastricht and brings collectors and dealers from around the world into a small city. Hotels and cars fill early. Booking ahead secures your vehicle class, a fixed price and the same chauffeur for every day of the fair.
