Can I book a Mercedes-Maybach or S-Class with a driver in Amsterdam during Metstrade?
Yes. A Mercedes-Maybach S-Class with chauffeur is €250 from Schiphol to any Amsterdam address and €225 back, confirmed individually by dispatch; First Class (Mercedes S-Class, EQS or BMW i7) is €140 from Schiphol and €100 an hour when held for the day. Every car is black and unbadged, and a yacht management company or an assistant can book, follow and be invoiced for the rides.

What is included in the price
- Black cars with no roof sign, livery or branding
- A name sign with the principal’s name, the vessel, the company — or nothing at all
- Chauffeurs who don’t take photographs and don’t discuss who they drive
- Bookings made under an assistant’s, captain’s or agent’s name, with status updates to the booker
- Corporate account with invoicing to the management company
How a management company books a principal’s week
- One message to dispatch. Flights, hotel, show days, yard visits, dinners, and which car for whom.
- Confirmation in writing. Fixed prices per booking; the Maybach is confirmed individually.
- Live status for the booker. Confirmed, chauffeur en route, guest in the car, arrived — to you, not only to the guest.
- One invoice. Invoiced to the company on a corporate account after the week.
Related questions
Can our yacht’s management company book transport for the whole team?
Yes. Enter each guest’s name and phone number and your own details as the booker; every confirmation and status update goes to you as well, and regular bookers get a corporate account with invoicing. See booking for colleagues and guests.
Is the Maybach confirmed instantly if I book online?
The Maybach is never a first-come booking: dispatch confirms each request individually. First Class is confirmed instantly online.
Can the chauffeur wait at a yard while we tour it?
Yes — book First Class or Business Class by the hour from Amsterdam and the car waits on site. For distances and day prices per yard, see visiting Dutch shipyards by car.
Do you provide security or close protection?
No. AmstelCab is a chauffeur company, not a security firm. We offer discretion — unbadged cars, no names on signs if you prefer, chauffeurs who don’t talk — not protection.
