Kladow is a locality in Berlin's Spandau borough in the far south-west of the city, rural and close to the water on the Havel opposite Wannsee. Between the old village core, the harbour and the waterside areas, many people need a plannable way to reach Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER). A pre-booked private transfer picks you up at your Kladow address and takes you straight to BER – and back to your door after you land.
Airport transfer from Kladow to BER
For the trip from Kladow to BER, enter your pickup address, date and time in the booking form and see the available vehicle classes with the total price before you book. Instead of travelling across the city by ferry, bus and train, you travel door to door to the terminal. Kladow lies in the far south-west on the water; the route runs across the city via the city ring and the A113 to BER in the south-east. Depending on traffic, time of day and route the drive typically takes around 55 to 70 minutes. This is guidance only – the real journey time depends on traffic on the day. See the full overview on Berlin airport transfer.
From BER back to Kladow
The transfer works in both directions. After landing you are met at BER and driven straight to your Kladow address – whether a house in Alt-Kladow, an address near the harbour or on the Havel shore. Enter your flight number when booking so the pickup can follow your actual arrival. As Kladow has no U-Bahn or S-Bahn connection, a fixed pickup with a name sign is an especially plannable alternative. See how the BER airport pickup works.
Looking for an Airport Taxi from Kladow to BER?
Around Alt-Kladow and the ferry pier, many travellers search for a taxi to the airport. As an alternative to hailing a metered taxi on the street, you can pre-book a private transfer to or from BER: the price for your route and vehicle class is shown before you confirm, and the driver waits at the agreed address or at the airport. The transport is carried out by external, licensed transfer providers. Read more about booking an airport taxi to BER in advance.

What makes Kladow distinctive
Kladow is a rural, waterside locality on the Havel, opposite Wannsee. At its heart is Alt-Kladow with the old village core and the harbour, from which the F10 ferry runs to Wannsee as part of public transport. On the shore lies the Neukladow manor park with old trees and views of the Havel. Kladow is predominantly shaped by detached houses and weekend properties and has no rapid-transit connection. The shore paths and bathing spots make the locality a popular excursion destination. Further background is in the sources below.

Hotels, dining and local destinations
Accommodation and business addresses are found mainly around Alt-Kladow and the harbour – well suited to transfers in both directions, hotel to BER and BER to hotel. Cafés and excursion restaurants sit by the harbour and the Havel shore; if you combine a ferry trip or a day at the water with a trip to the airport, simply enter the exact pickup address when booking. The Havel, harbour and manor park also make the locality a destination in its own right.
Families, groups and business travellers
Travelling as a group, everyone stays together in one vehicle, from a business car to a minibus for larger parties. Without a rapid-transit connection and on the long ride from the south-west in particular, one vehicle for everyone pays off. The booking system shows which vehicle class is available for your passenger count and luggage; for larger groups see the Berlin airport minibus for groups. For business travellers, the addresses around Alt-Kladow are typical start and end points.
Kladow, Gatow or Wannsee – which pickup address?
Kladow borders Gatow to the north, Wannsee across the Havel and Wilhelmstadt to the north-east. North begins Gatow; across the water lies Wannsee. The exact address in the booking form always determines the transfer.
