Frankfurt Airport to Tiergarten
After landing there are about 558 kilometres ahead of you, roughly five hours forty on the road. The route runs north on the A5, joins the A4 at Kirchheimer Dreieck towards Thuringia, and turns onto the A9 for Berlin at the Hermsdorfer Kreuz.
Close to the city the driver takes the Berlin ring and then the A100 urban motorway, leaving it around Kaiserdamm or Kurfürstenstrasse to drop into the district.
Meet and greet in the arrivals hall
Your driver waits in the arrivals hall of your terminal holding a sign with your name and tracks the flight, so a delay simply means he waits longer. He takes the bags and walks you straight to the car.
Arriving at your Tiergarten address
The car takes you to the door – hotel on Potsdamer Strasse, apartment in the Hansaviertel, embassy on Tiergartenstrasse. After five and a half hours that is the whole point: no changes with suitcases, no hunting for the right S-Bahn exit in the dark.
What Tiergarten is like
Tiergarten is Berlin's oldest and largest inner-city park, once the electors' hunting ground and now a running, picnicking and strolling ground between the Brandenburg Gate and the Zoo. The Victory Column, Schloss Bellevue as the Federal President's residence and the Haus der Kulturen der Welt are all minutes apart.
To the south lies the Kulturforum with the Philharmonie, the Neue Nationalgalerie and the State Library; to the east Mitte begins with the Reichstag and the government quarter. Official Berlin is walkable from here.
Tips for your arrival
Give us your flight number and terminal at booking so tracking stays unambiguous even if you are rebooked. For a late arrival it is worth telling the hotel roughly when you will get in, so reception is still staffed.
The last stretch on the A100 collects Berlin's evening traffic – land in Frankfurt in the afternoon and you tend to arrive right in the middle of it.
Also bookable as its own route: Frankfurt Airport to Mitte (561 km, at a fixed price with real drive-time facts). Every route, fixed price and vehicle class at FR Transfer.

Transfer, taxi or train from Tiergarten?
After a long flight the difference is mostly peace of mind: the transfer is a fixed price agreed before you fly and a driver is standing there with a sign, while a taxi over 558 kilometres runs on the meter and few drivers will take the job on spec. The train from the airport's long-distance station is a genuine option but ends at Berlin Hauptbahnhof, leaving you with the bags, a change and the last leg into Tiergarten. A rental car asks for five and a half hours of concentration straight after landing, and then for a parking space in a quarter where residents' permits rule the kerb.

Show fixed price →Frequently asked questions
How long does the transfer from Frankfurt Airport to Tiergarten take?
The drive from Frankfurt Airport to Tiergarten takes about 340 minutes for 558 km in normal traffic. That is measured from the meeting point inside the terminal, not from touchdown.
Where does my driver meet me at Terminal 1 or 3?
The meeting point is the arrivals hall of your terminal — your driver stands just beyond the customs exit holding a name sign and walks you to the vehicle. The terminal follows from the flight number you give when booking, and a diversion to 1 or 3 still gets you found.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
Pickup is linked to your flight number and shifts automatically with the actual landing time — at no extra charge. 60 minutes of waiting are included after touchdown so baggage reclaim and passport control are covered.
How much is a transfer from Frankfurt Airport to Tiergarten?
The fixed price for the 558 km route is shown in the booking form before you book and never changes afterwards — regardless of traffic, time of day, weekday or how long the drive actually takes. It depends on the vehicle class and the distance, not on a meter.
How much luggage fits in each vehicle?
The sedan classes take 2 large suitcases plus 2 cabin bags; the Business Van takes 7 suitcases plus 5 cabin bags for up to 8 passengers. Declare oversized items such as skis, a golf bag or a pushchair when booking so the right class is dispatched.
Is this a taxi or a chauffeur service?
This is a chauffeur service: the journey is booked in advance, the price is fixed before you book and no meter runs. Your driver wears a suit, greets you by name and helps with the luggage — in the Business and First Class categories it is a limousine service with a Mercedes E- or S-Class. You hail a taxi at a rank; a chauffeur waits for you at the terminal with a name sign. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Tiergarten.
Can I pay the driver by card?
Card payment is accepted directly in the vehicle — as is cash or paying online in advance, and business customers can be invoiced. You receive a receipt with VAT shown either way.
Can I travel with an infant or child seat?
A child seat, booster or infant carrier is selected during booking and fitted by the driver before pickup. State the child's age so the correct size group is installed.
