Zurich is Switzerland's largest city and its main financial centre, and it serves three quite different kinds of journey at once: a business visit with meetings spread across the city and the region, a short break on the lake, or the first stop before travelling onward to Lucerne, Interlaken, Basel or the mountain regions. Fast Ride Travel GmbH arranges private airport, hotel and city-to-city transfers, with vehicle options and prices available through the booking form.

The centre is compact. The Limmat divides the old town: the Niederdorf quarter lies on the right bank, a car-free part of Kreis 1 known for its oriel windows, narrow alleys and courtyards, while the Limmatquai runs along the river past the historic guild houses. The Grossmünster's twin towers stand on the east bank and can be climbed for a view over the rooftops, the Fraumünster opposite is known for its Chagall and Giacometti windows, and the Lindenhof park looks down on the water from the west side.
Lake Zurich starts at the bottom of the centre. The waterfront promenades lead out to the Bürkliterrasse, where the view reaches as far as the Alps on a clear day, and the Opera House has stood on the lakeshore since 1891.
Bahnhofstrasse runs from the main station towards the lake and is the city's most exclusive shopping street, lined with boutiques, jewellers and department stores; Paradeplatz, once a cattle market, is now the centre of Swiss banking. Museums such as the Kunsthaus and the National Museum sit within walking distance of both the banking district and the waterfront.
For an arrival, that compactness helps: most hotels and offices sit close together and near the station, while the airport lies outside the city, so your transfer is a drive in its own right.
Zurich Airport (ZRH) is the arrival point for most of our Zurich transfers. We take you from the airport to a hotel, a home or a business address, and we make the return journey too: a pickup at your Zurich address timed to your departure.
A booking works when four details are right: the flight number, the number of passengers, the amount of luggage, and the exact destination address. The flight number matters because the airport handles arrivals in two separate zones, Arrival 1 and Arrival 2, and the meeting arrangement for your booking is confirmed accordingly rather than left to chance. On the day, follow the meeting instructions supplied with the booking.
The arrival lanes at the airport are short-term and chargeable, so the pickup is agreed in advance instead of being improvised at the kerb. If your flight is delayed or your arrival details change, contact us as early as you can so the arrangement can be reviewed and reconfirmed; a change made on the day is confirmed individually, not assumed. Traffic, weather and the time of day influence how long the drive takes, so we do not promise a fixed arrival minute.
Meet and Greet, where the driver waits at arrivals with a name sign, is an option in the booking form rather than part of the standard fare; its price appears in your quote once selected.
For a hotel, give the name and street address; for an office, a meeting room or an event venue, the full address, including the entrance when the building has more than one. Bahnhofstrasse, the old town and parts of the business district have pedestrian lanes and one-way streets, and a correct entrance often saves a search for somewhere to stop.
Where vehicle access permits, we collect and drop off at the door. Where it does not — a pedestrian lane, a courtyard address, a street with loading restrictions — we agree a nearby meeting point with you beforehand and confirm it as part of the booking.
Groups and business travellers are the same service with different requirements: several passengers arriving on one flight, a party carrying more luggage than a sedan holds, or a morning of appointments at addresses across the city. Describe the shape of the day when you enquire and the vehicle class follows from it.
The booking form lists the classes available for your date, with the price for each and the passenger and luggage allowance of that class: Standard Sedan, Business Sedan and Premium Sedan for smaller parties, and Standard Van 7, Premium Van and Standard Van XL when more seats or luggage space are needed.
Where a larger van is the right fit, a Mercedes V-Class may be offered. Treat it as one possible option rather than a guaranteed vehicle: every class is subject to confirmation for your date, and a quote prices the journey rather than reserving a specific car.
Declare pushchairs, bulky or oversized luggage, sports equipment and any mobility equipment before you book, so a suitable class is proposed and the loading is planned instead of discovered at the kerb. If a wheelchair is travelling, say so in advance so we can check what can be provided: an accessible vehicle is not something to assume from the standard classes.
Not every day fits one pickup and one drop-off. Several stops, a tailored itinerary, transport between appointments, or a journey the booking form has no field for can all be requested as an enquiry.
Hourly hire, waiting between appointments and full-day service are arranged the same way: described in your enquiry, confirmed in writing and priced for the plan you agree, not sold as a fixed package from a list.
Additional stops, waiting time and any custom arrangement must appear in the agreed quote; anything requested later is priced and confirmed separately.
Zurich is a natural starting point for the rest of Switzerland. Lucerne is a straightforward drive, Interlaken sits between its two lakes in the Bernese Oberland, Basel lies on the Rhine where the German and French borders meet, and St. Moritz and the Engadin take longer but remain a single journey.
Zermatt is the case worth explaining: the village is car-free, so a road transfer ends at Täsch and the final stretch is by shuttle or local transport. The Zermatt guide sets out that distinction before you book.
Every journey is quoted for its own route, vehicle and requested services, so a fare from the airport to a Zurich hotel tells you nothing about the fare to Interlaken. Enter the route you actually need in the form, or ask for a quote when the journey has more than one leg.
The vehicle is yours for the booking: you travel with the passengers named on it and no one else is added.
The class follows your passenger count and luggage rather than being fixed for the route, and pickup and drop-off points are agreed in advance wherever vehicle access permits.
Quotation and booking both run through the existing online form, and the price is derived from the actual road route and the class you select, with VAT shown separately.
Review the price and included services shown in your quote before confirming your booking. Any requested changes or additional services are confirmed separately.
Questions before you book are answered by email, phone or WhatsApp through the channels on our contact page, including anything that depends on your flight.

Yes. Enter Zurich Airport (ZRH) as the pickup and your hotel's name and street address as the destination, add your date, time, passengers and luggage, and the price for each available class is shown before you confirm.
The airport handles arrivals in two separate zones, Arrival 1 and Arrival 2. Your booking includes meeting instructions that tell you where to go for your arrival, so follow those rather than waiting at a guessed exit. If the instructions are unclear on the day, call the number in your booking and we will direct you.
Contact us as early as you can with the new flight number or arrival time. The arrangement is then reviewed and reconfirmed for you; a change made on the day is confirmed individually rather than assumed, so nothing is agreed until you have our reply.
Standard Sedan, Business Sedan, Premium Sedan, Standard Van 7, Premium Van and Standard Van XL. The form shows which classes are available for your date, with the price and the passenger and luggage allowance of each. A Mercedes V-Class may be offered for larger groups, subject to confirmation.
Child seats can be requested in the booking form, so state the number of children and their ages. Bulky items such as pushchairs, skis or oversized cases should be declared before booking so the right class is proposed. If a wheelchair is travelling, tell us in advance and we will check what can be provided.
Yes. Zurich main station has several sides and levels, so give the exact meeting point you want in your booking and follow the confirmed instructions. We cannot promise access to a particular forecourt or exit, and where a lane is restricted we agree an alternative point with you.
Yes. Book it as its own journey with your Zurich address as the pickup and Zurich Airport (ZRH) as the destination, or send both journeys in one enquiry with your return date and flight time.
Yes. Several stops, transport between appointments, hourly hire and full-day arrangements are handled as an enquiry: describe the plan and we confirm what is possible and quote for it. Additional stops and waiting time are included in the agreed quote only when they form part of it.
Enter your pickup point, your address in Zurich and your travel date in the booking form to see the vehicles and prices available. If your day needs several stops, a wait between appointments or an address with restricted access, send the details through the custom quote form or contact us and we will reply with what can be arranged.
