Taxi Arcachon → Bordeaux Airport
Your Arcachon → Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport transfer at €135–€165. 70 km, direct to your terminal.
A taxi between Arcachon and Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport costs between €135 and €165 when booked in advance at a fixed price, over a road distance of about 70 kilometres and a journey time of from 50 to 70 minutes depending on traffic. The usual route takes A660 / A63, with ~€3 in tolls. A van for up to seven passengers starts at €215. That price includes luggage, tolls and the driver's approach, and it does not move if traffic builds up: that is the difference with a metered ride, where every minute of waiting is charged and the applicable rate depends on the hour. On an unbooked ride, the amount follows the scale of the prefectoral order applying where the passenger is picked up, higher from seven in the evening to ten in the morning as well as on Sundays and public holidays. The driver tracks the flight or train number given at booking and shifts the pick-up at no extra cost if it is delayed, and cancelling remains free up to six hours before departure.

The taxi transfer between Arcachon and Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport is one of the most requested routes from the Arcachon Bay area. BOD Airport, located in Mérignac on the western outskirts of Bordeaux, serves over 90 destinations in France and Europe with nearly 7 million passengers per year. For holidaymakers staying around the Arcachon Bay, a taxi offers a far more convenient door-to-door solution than public transport, which requires a connection at Bordeaux Saint-Jean station. The journey crosses the maritime pine forest of the Landes de Gascogne, an iconic landscape of south-west France, before reaching the airport zone through the western suburbs. Your TaxiNeo driver tracks your flight in real time to adjust pick-up time in case of delay. Pick-up is at your home, hotel, holiday rental or directly at Arcachon harbour, with luggage assistance included. The service runs 24/7 to accommodate all flight schedules, including early morning departures and late-night arrivals.
