Arrive in Eppelheim — the Capri-Sun town on Heidelberg's western doorstep — with a private fixed-price transfer from Frankfurt Airport (FRA). The 83 km route along the A5 takes around 55min, and your FrankfurtRide chauffeur handles everything door-to-door, with the price agreed before you travel.
Eppelheim is a compact town of around 15,000 people that borders Heidelberg directly on its western side, close enough that the RNV tram line 22 runs from the town centre to Heidelberg's Bismarckplatz in about a quarter of an hour. Its best-known employer is the flavour and drinks group Wild, whose Eppelheim plant is where Capri-Sun was developed in 1969 and is still produced. The brick water tower in the town centre is the local landmark, and the Rudolf-Wild-Halle serves as the town's sports and event venue. Heidelberg University's Neuenheimer Feld science and hospital campus is a short drive away, and SAP's Walldorf headquarters is about 12 km to the south.
The Frankfurt Airport to Eppelheim transfer follows the A5 corridor with consistent journey times of around 55min. Your FrankfurtRide chauffeur drops you at any address in Eppelheim — hotel, business, or private residence — all at the same fixed price with no detour surcharge.

Reckon on about 55 minutes for the 83 km, straight down the A5 to the Heidelberg/Schwetzingen exit, which is practically at the town boundary.
