Taxi Strasbourg → Sélestat
Your Strasbourg → Sélestat transfer at €95–€120. 50 km via the toll-free A35.
A taxi between Strasbourg and Sélestat costs between €95 and €120 when booked in advance at a fixed price, over a road distance of about 50 kilometres and a journey time of from 35 to 50 minutes depending on traffic. The usual route takes A35, with no tolls. A van for up to seven passengers starts at €155. 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.

Sélestat is an underrated but fascinating town, cradle of Rhineland humanism and gateway to the Haut-Kœnigsbourg castle. Its humanist library, a UNESCO Memory of the World site, houses priceless medieval manuscripts and Renaissance works, including the first book mentioning a decorated Christmas tree (1521). The Haut-Kœnigsbourg castle, perched at 757 m on a Vosges rocky spur, is France's most visited fortress with over 500,000 visitors annually. Restored by Kaiser Wilhelm II in 1908, it offers exceptional views over the Alsace plain, Vosges and Black Forest. The town is also known for its flower carnival (August) and its Romanesque (Sainte-Foy) and Gothic (Saint-Georges) churches. Taxis from Strasbourg are popular with Haut-Kœnigsbourg tourists and heritage enthusiasts.
