Stuttgart → Heidelberg: key facts

Private transfer, Stuttgart Airport (STR) to Heidelberg: the car (1–3 passengers) is €290 and the van (4–8) is €360, a set price for the vehicle that does not change at checkout. Expect 128 km on the road via A 8 and A 5; about 1h 30min off-peak, 1h 30min – 1h 55min in rush hour.

Pickup: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the terminal your flight lands at (Terminal 1, 2, 3 or 4), after baggage reclaim and the customs exit, holding a sign with your name. The booking includes flight monitoring and an hour of free waiting from touchdown; your bags are loaded for you.

Heidelberg is about 120 km north of Stuttgart airport. The drive uses the A8 and the A6 motorway via Heilbronn, or the A81 and A6, taking around 1 hour 15 minutes. The A6 near Heidelberg and Walldorf is congested at rush hours. Heidelberg has a low-emission zone, and the old town with the Hauptstraße is mostly pedestrian.

The old town of Heidelberg stretches along the Neckar below the castle ruin. The Hauptstraße is a long pedestrian street from the Bismarckplatz to the Karlstor, passing the Marktplatz, the Heiliggeistkirche and the Old Bridge. Most hotels are in the old town or near the station, around 2 km west of the Bismarckplatz. The car stops at the Bismarckplatz or the nearest open street, and the last stretch is on foot.

Public transport: There is no through train from the airport station; ride the S-Bahn into Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof and continue on an IC or regional service north-west to Heidelberg Hauptbahnhof by the Neckar.
