Taxi or private chauffeur for Lyon–Frankfurt?
A Lyon taxi charges by the meter, including the empty return, which makes long distances expensive and unpredictable.

For a trade fair at the Messe, a meeting at a bank’s headquarters or a long-haul flight from Frankfurt, a private car lets you work on the way, carry equipment or samples and travel as a group without changing trains.
