Trustworthy Santiago airport transfer

There’s nothing better than stepping off a plane, collecting your luggage and then walking straight to your private transport. No need to worry about how to get to your hotel, how much it will cost or how long it will take with a pre-booked and direct Santiago airport taxi. 

The moment you arrive at Santiago airport (SCL), your friendly driver will be there to greet you, right outside of your arrival terminal, holding a sign with your name written on it. Even if your flight schedule changes unexpectedly, your driver will be instantly updated with the new arrival time, so they will always be there when you land. After your warm reception, your driver will give you a hand with your luggage and lead you to your pre-selected vehicle.

As you begin your Santiago airport transfer, your driver will happily answer any questions you may have about the city and will share with you a few must-see attractions for your stay. With Welcome Pickups taking care of all your transfer needs, all you need to do is sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.

Directions for your Santiago airport transfer

Santiago International Airport (SCL), also known as Nuevo Pudahuel or Arturo Merino Benítez Airport, is the largest and busiest airport in Chile, hosting both domestic and international flights. The distance from Santiago airport to the city centre of Santiago is 16 km, so a Santiago airport taxi ride, under normal traffic conditions, should take approximately 25 minutes. After exiting the airport compound your driver will take Armando Cortinez Poniente (West) and merge onto Costanera Norte (North) after the roundabout. They will then stay on Costanera Norte for about 12 km, before taking exit 19 onto Route 5. Keeping left, your driver will drive towards Manuel Rodriguez Avenue which heads directly to the heart of Santiago. From here, they will use the local roads to reach your hotel.

A Santiago taxi for you

Although taking a Santiago airport taxi is a little more expensive than the public transport options, it’s the only direct transfer available, meaning you can start enjoying your vacation sooner. Choosing a Welcome taxi also means that you get to enjoy set-rate fees, English speaking drivers, 24/7 customer service and amazing travel extras.

Santiago airport transfer prices

Unfortunately, the local taxi drivers at Santiago airport don’t offer a flat-rate fee. They will calculate the fee of our journey into the city centre of Santiago using a taximeter based on distance. The total cost will be around €27, but additional fees may be applied for things such as excess luggage, number of people travelling and transfers during public holidays. To secure a set-rate fee with no hidden charges, we recommend booking your Santiago airport transfer with Welcome Pickups.
