Private driver and chauffeur service in Strasbourg

Central Strasbourg spans roughly 4 km around the Grande Ile. FJ13 covers the whole metropolitan area. Segments served: European business travellers (Parliament, Council of Europe, delegations), Alsatian companies (executives, project teams, seminar shuttles), residents (medical appointments, receptions, evenings out), business and leisure visitors (tours, hotel transfers, the Alsace Wine Route).

Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Business accounts can use a single monthly invoice.

In Strasbourg, “private driver” and “VTC chauffeur” describe the same service: a car with a chauffeur booked for you alone, at the agreed time and place. In France this job is done under the VTC status (chauffeur-driven vehicle): a professional licence issued by the prefecture, registration on the EVTC register and passenger transport insurance. FJ13 is registered under number EVTC067190060.

That status sets three rules you will find on every FJ13 journey:

• The journey is booked before departure, online, by email or via WhatsApp. A VTC chauffeur cannot be hailed in the street and does not wait at a rank.
• The price is fixed and quoted to you including VAT before you book. There is no meter.
• The vehicle and chauffeur are yours for the booked journey, with no other passengers.

From Strasbourg, the same private driver takes you across the border: Kehl in 20 min, Karlsruhe / Baden-Baden airport in 55 min, Europa-Park in 45 min and Basel-Mulhouse airport in 1 hr 30. English- or German-speaking chauffeurs on request, subject to availability.

The price of every journey is fixed and quoted before you book, according to the route and the vehicle category you choose. A few frequent journeys from central Strasbourg:

• Strasbourg-Entzheim airport: from €40 incl. VAT
• Europa-Park: from €115 incl. VAT
• Karlsruhe / Baden-Baden airport: from €130 incl. VAT
• Basel-Mulhouse airport: from €260 incl. VAT

For any other journey, the booking form on this page shows the price before you confirm. Taxi or private driver for the airport? Our Strasbourg-Entzheim airport taxi guide compares the two.

FJ13 is a chauffeur-driven vehicle service (VTC in French law), not a taxi company. That regulatory distinction, set by the Thevenoud Act of 1 October 2014, has concrete consequences for you in Strasbourg:

• Advance booking is mandatory: a VTC cannot be hailed in the street or wait at a rank. You book online, by phone or via WhatsApp, and the chauffeur meets you at the agreed pick-up point.
• Fixed fare quoted at booking: no meter. The fare is known and accepted before departure, which removes the uncertainty of long runs (Entzheim, Basel-Mulhouse, Frankfurt).
• Recent sedans and vans: three categories (sedan, business sedan, van), with the vehicle assigned according to availability within the category you choose.
• A professional chauffeur: VTC professional licence, EVTC registration, English-speaking chauffeurs on request, subject to availability.
• Corporate invoicing (for business customers): company account, monthly statement, recoverable VAT, cost centres.

In Strasbourg a taxi remains the right answer when you need an immediate pick-up without booking. For any planned journey (airport, station, business meeting, evening event), FJ13 offers a price known in advance. Detailed taxi versus private chauffeur comparison for Strasbourg.
