From the southern shore of the Tegernsee to Frankfurt
The first kilometres out of Rottach-Egern skirt the Egerner Bucht, pass through Tegernsee and reach Gmund, from where the B318 leads to Holzkirchen and the A8. At the Munich ring the route turns north onto the A9.
From Nuremberg the A3 takes over through Würzburg and the Spessart into the Rhine-Main area: 459 km in all, roughly four hours forty-five to the Frankfurt departures level.
Pickup in Rottach-Egern
The driver comes to the hotel entrance, the apartment, or a chalet in the Weissach district. The narrow lanes between the lakeshore and Wallbergstraße are straightforward for a driver who knows them, as long as the address is precise.
Early flights start in the dark; the luggage goes in and the journey begins without waiting for any shared shuttle.
Arriving at the Frankfurt terminal
You are set down on the departures level, at Terminal 1 or Terminal 3 depending on the airline. Skis, golf bags and mountain kit go straight from the boot to the oversized baggage desk.
The advantage over any public option is simple: between your lakeside accommodation and check-in there is not one change.
Rottach-Egern below the Wallberg
Rottach-Egern occupies the southern shore of the Tegernsee, where the mountains close off the valley, with the Wallberg rising directly above the village and a cable car running up it. From the Malerwinkel viewpoint the eye travels across the Egerner Bucht to the far end of the lake.
What was once a farming and fishing village is now the most fashionable address in the valley: high-end hotels, decorated kitchens, a golf course close by and, in winter, cross-country trails along the valley meadows. Tegernsee lies to the north, Kreuth to the south towards the Achen Pass, and Bad Wiessee across the water.
Tips for this journey
The situational winter tyre rule applies in the cold season and snow in the valley simply brings the pickup forward – the cars are equipped for it. No Alpine passes are involved.
On summer and holiday weekends the lakeside road towards Gmund fills up and the A8 into Munich slows; an early start avoids both. Please flag bulky luggage when booking.

Transfer, taxi or train from Rottach-Egern?
Doing this trip by public transport means a bus or branch train into central Munich, a change there and then an ICE to the airport – hardly realistic with a ski bag or golf clubs. A metered taxi over 459 km would be unquotable and, at that distance, difficult to arrange at all. A rental car ties you to four and a half hours at the wheel at the end of a lakeside break and adds airport parking or a one-way fee. The fixed-price transfer waits outside the hotel at the agreed time, runs straight through to departures, and costs precisely what the booking displayed.

How long does the transfer from Rottach-Egern to Frankfurt Airport take?
The drive from Rottach-Egern to Frankfurt Airport takes about 284 minutes for 459 km in normal traffic. Your driver adds roughly 55 minutes of buffer for rush hour and roadworks.
How early should I leave Rottach-Egern for Frankfurt Airport?
Leave Rottach-Egern about 7 h 39 min before departure for a Schengen flight, or about 8 h 39 min for long-haul. That is 284 minutes of driving, 55 minutes of traffic buffer and 2 or 3 hours at the terminal. The booking form proposes the pickup time for you.
How much is a transfer from Rottach-Egern to Frankfurt Airport?
The fixed price for the 459 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 is booked to the minute in Rottach-Egern. That makes the transfer the fixed-price alternative to a Frankfurt Airport taxi for Rottach-Egern.
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.
How does free cancellation work?
Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before the agreed pickup time. After that a cancellation fee may apply; at the pickup address in Rottach-Egern 15 minutes of waiting are included, and each further quarter hour is charged at the rate stated in the terms.
