Arrive in Oberhausen — the western Ruhr city famous for the CentrO shopping world and the towering Gasometer — with a private fixed-price transfer from Frankfurt Airport (FRA). The 250 km route up the A3 takes around 2h 30min, and your FrankfurtRide chauffeur handles everything door-to-door, with the price agreed before you travel.

Oberhausen calls itself the cradle of Ruhr industry — the region's first ironworks rose here — and it has reinvented that heritage with flair. The Gasometer, a vast former gas holder, is now one of Europe's most dramatic exhibition spaces, while next door the CentrO is among the largest shopping and leisure complexes on the continent. Add the Sea Life aquarium and the green Olga-Park on a former colliery, and Oberhausen makes an easy family destination in the western Ruhr.

The Frankfurt Airport to Oberhausen transfer runs north on the A3 the whole way to the western Ruhr, around 250 km with a typical journey of 2h 30min. Your FrankfurtRide chauffeur drops you at any address in Oberhausen — CentrO, hotel, or home — all at the same fixed price.
