A chauffeur in Blaricum,
between the thatch and the water.
An old farming village that now reaches all the way to the Gooimeer. We drive the lanes, the new quarter by the lake and the hospital gate, with one fixed amount for the whole car.
Thatched roofs at one end, a lakeside quarter at the other.
Blaricum still has its farming core: low thatched houses on crooked lanes, hedges of beech and holly, and a street plan that predates any idea of a turning circle. Around it the village has grown in layers — the brick terraces of the Bijvanck, the villa lanes running towards Laren and Huizen, and then, down by the water, the Blaricummermeent, a new quarter of houses and a business park laid out on the Gooimeer shore.
The lake is what sets this place apart from the rest of Het Gooi. There is a beach on the edge of the village, a shoreline path towards the Huizen marinas and, across the water, the low line of Flevoland with the A27 crossing to it. On the landward side sits the other thing that brings traffic to Blaricum: the Tergooi hospital site, which draws patients and visitors from the whole region rather than just this village.
The A1 runs along the southern boundary and does most of the work. Amsterdam is about half an hour by it, Hilversum and Naarden are a few minutes off it in either direction, and Schiphol is roughly 22 minutes and 35 kilometres away. Everything outside this corner is quoted on the same terms — see chauffeur service across the Netherlands.
Airports, appointments and the water at the end of the road.
An early start from a village with no station of its own. Cases are loaded at the door, the A1 is quiet at that hour, and the hall is confirmed with you before the car sets off.
The flight is followed from booking to touchdown. Your chauffeur stands in the arrivals hall with a sign, walks you to the car in the nearest garage, and the first hour of waiting is on us.
A calm car to the Tergooi site and a chauffeur who is there again afterwards, whether the appointment finishes early or runs two hours over. Useful when driving yourself home is not sensible.
Visitors collected from the city or the airport and delivered to the right unit on the business park, with the car held nearby if the afternoon needs a second stop.
The beach and the shore path are minutes from the old village, and the marinas at Huizen a little further. Go with towels and a picnic, come back without worrying about the car park.
Grandparents fetched for a birthday, children returned after the weekend. Book it for somebody else and the updates land with you both, from confirmed to safely arrived.
What Blaricum to Schiphol costs, and what an afternoon costs.
One all-in amount covers the 35 kilometres to the airport, per car and with taxes included. When the day is a series of short hops around Het Gooi instead, the hourly rate is the sensible way to buy it.
Rides under ten kilometres are quoted at the minimum fares of €50, €70 and €90 by class, so a hop to the hospital or the station is priced honestly rather than as a fraction. Book within twelve hours of pickup and ten per cent is added; cancel more than an hour ahead and nothing is.
Booked once, and then left alone.
Not only where to and when. If the passenger is a parent, a patient or a guest who has never been here, tell us — the chauffeur rings the bell rather than waiting at the kerb. Book online or on WhatsApp.
You see one amount per car before confirming and pay exactly that, by card, iDEAL, Apple Pay or Klarna, or on a company invoice. Child and baby seats cost €5 each and are fitted in advance.
Down the lane, past the hedge, up to the house. Your chauffeur is in a suit and ahead of time, with water and chargers in the back, and helps with the bags without being asked.
Confirmation, chauffeur en route, passenger in the car, safely arrived — the messages go to whoever booked as well as to whoever is riding, and the live position is on the My Ride page.
The villages either side, and the city down the motorway.
The next village along, with its museum, its galleries and the Brink.
The fortified town on the Gooimeer, ten minutes west along the A1.
Half an hour away: the city hub, its hotels, its airport runs and its evenings.
What an airport pickup includes — tracking, name sign, waiting time.
Plan on about 22 minutes for the 35 kilometres, using the A1 west and then the A9. Mornings are slower at the Muiderberg junction, so the car leaves earlier rather than driving faster. Business Class costs €120, fixed when you book.
Yes, and it is a regular job here. The chauffeur takes them to the entrance, waits nearby without the clock running away with the price, and brings them home afterwards. Book it on their behalf and you will see each stage as it happens.
We do. The lanes around the core are narrow and the addresses hide behind hedges, so give us the house name or number as you would to a delivery and the chauffeur finds it. The Bijvanck and the Blaricummermeent are equally straightforward.
Hourly hire covers that: from €65 an hour in Business Class with a two-hour minimum and 40 kilometres allowed within each hour. It has to start and end in the same place, which works well for a day that loops around Het Gooi.
Van Class seats up to seven passengers with seven bags, captain chairs and standing headroom at the door, which usually saves sending two cars. For larger groups we dispatch several vehicles and keep them together on the road.
Yes. Into the city it is about half an hour on the A1; to Utrecht, Amersfoort or the coast is a fixed quote in the same format. Longer runs into Belgium or Germany are priced individually and confirmed on WhatsApp.
