LONG DISTANCE AIRPORT TRANSFER
Long Distance Airport Transfer: One Driver, One Flat Rate, the Whole Way
Not every trip from MSP ends in Eagan or downtown Minneapolis. Some passengers are headed further out: to Rochester for a Mayo Clinic appointment, to Duluth for a family visit, or to another Minnesota city well outside the Twin Cities metro. Gold & Green Taxi’s long distance airport transfer covers those trips the same way we cover a local ride, one driver, booked in advance, with a flat rate agreed before you leave. We are based at 3165 Dodd Rd in Eagan and pick up long-distance trips from both MSP Terminal 1 Taxi Service and MSP Terminal 2 Taxi Service.

What Counts as a Long Distance Airport Transfer?
A long distance airport transportation Minnesota travelers book with us is any MSP trip that goes beyond our standard Twin Cities service area, out of town, not just out of the neighborhood. If you are headed to Bloomington or Woodbury, that is a regular airport ride. If you are headed to Rochester, Duluth, or another city a couple hours out, this is an out of town airport transfer, and it is booked and priced differently from a short local trip.
MSP to Rochester: The Mayo Clinic Route
A taxi from MSP to Rochester MN is one of the most common long distance trips out of the airport, roughly 90 miles south and about an hour and a half by car under normal driving conditions. A large share of that traffic is medical: Mayo Clinic patients, their families, and healthcare professionals flying into MSP and needing a direct ride the rest of the way, rather than a connecting flight or a rental car after a long day of travel. A single driver for that whole stretch means no transfer partway, no second vehicle to find, and no metered fare climbing the entire drive.
MSP to Duluth and Other Minnesota Cities
Rochester is not the only long-distance route out of MSP. A taxi from MSP to Duluth covers roughly 150 miles north, about two and a half hours by car. Other common out-state destinations include St. Cloud, around 70 miles and just over an hour away, Mankato, about 80 miles and roughly ninety minutes, and Brainerd, close to 130 miles and around two hours. These are general driving distances, actual travel time depends on traffic, weather, and the season, especially during a Minnesota winter. Call Gold & Green Taxi to confirm timing and pricing for your specific destination before you book.
Long Distance Taxi Service, Booked Like Any Other Ride
Booking a long distance taxi Minneapolis travelers rely on works the same way as booking a local one: call 651-452-9000 or reserve online, tell us your destination, and we confirm a driver and a rate before your trip starts. There is no separate app for longer trips and no need to shop around for a second quote once you land. If your trip is for work, our corporate transportation in Minneapolis runs on this same advance-confirmed model.
Why a Flat Rate Matters More the Farther You Go
A metered fare that climbs mile by mile is a bigger problem on a ninety-minute drive than a fifteen-minute one. As an MSP airport long distance transfer provider, Gold & Green Taxi agrees on a flat rate before you leave, so the cost is known up front instead of ticking upward somewhere on the highway outside the Twin Cities metro.
One Driver for the Entire Trip
Your driver for a long distance transfer stays with you for the whole route, there is no swap partway and no shared van making stops for other passengers along the way. Because these trips take real advance planning, call ahead rather than expecting a same-hour pickup, and we will confirm your driver and vehicle before the day of travel.

Licensed, Insured, and Regulated for the Whole Route
Every driver on a long distance airport transfer is licensed, insured, and professional, for the full trip, not just the first few miles out of MSP. Taxi companies operating in Minneapolis are regulated by the City of Minneapolis’s business licensing division, which requires vehicle inspection and separate driver licensing. That regulation applies to the whole route, not only the portion inside city limits.
