WHAT METHOD OF TRANSPORT TO CHOOSE FOR TRAVELING TO THE NETHERLANDS

Are you planning a vacation in the Netherlands or are you going to this country for a new job? Regardless of the reason for your journey, you certainly want to get there safely, comfortably and without too much hassle. When choosing the method of transport, you need to strike a balance between cost, comfort, and efficiency.

Before we talk to you about prices and the time you will spend on the plane, bus, or personal car, here are some important things you need to know about all methods of transport to the Netherlands.

Important things to remember about international transport methods

To help you compare and choose a method of travel that suits you, here are the defining elements for each of the transport means that we will discuss in this article.

  • TRAVEL BY TRAIN - IF YOU WILL TRAVEL LONG DISTANCES, THE TRAIN IS A RATHER GOOD OPTION, BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE DIFFERENT COUNTRIES, TO ADMIRE THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE CITIES AND IT IS ALSO A VERY COMFORTABLE METHOD OF TRANSPORT, BUT ALSO ACCESSIBLE IN TERMS OF PRICE. THE DISADVANTAGE WOULD BE THAT IT IS PROBABLY THE SLOWEST OF ALL.
  • PLANE - THE FASTEST MEANS OF INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT. HOWEVER, ALTHOUGH YOU DO NOT WASTE VALUABLE TIME TRAVELING, IT IS ALSO QUITE COSTLY IN TERMS OF PRICE.
  • BUS/COACH - THE BUS IS EFFICIENT FOR SHORT DISTANCES, BECAUSE THE LEVEL OF COMFORT IS NOT THE HIGHEST, AND IF IT IS VERY CROWDED, THE EXPERIENCE IS NOT VERY PLEASANT.
  • PERSONAL CAR - YOU ARE MUCH MORE FLEXIBLE IN TERMS OF THE TIME SPENT ON THE ROAD AND THE ROUTE FOLLOWED TO REACH THE DESTINATION. ON THE OTHER HAND, THE COSTS ARE QUITE HIGH FOR FUEL, AND FOR RENTAL CARS THE COSTS RISE EVEN MORE.

Being employed by DB Work brings you a very important advantage, as our team offers you free transport to the Netherlands. See more advantages and details here.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT TO THE NETHERLANDS BY TRAIN

With a low price, a high level of comfort, and without the worry of the route, international train transport to the Netherlands can also be an experience, not just a stage that you want to pass very quickly. 

INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT TO THE NETHERLANDS BY AIRPLANE

The fastest way to get to the Netherlands is by plane. There are several companies that offer flights between the two countries, including Lufthansa. 

Don't forget to consider any additional costs, if you need to provide your transportation to the airport as well.

Coach

The price to travel to Amsterdam by coach is around 90 euros, but this cost can vary depending on the time of year or demand. Although the cost is very good, the bus also has some disadvantages, including the extended time you have to spend on the road, that depending on the country to want to go from, it could take up to 40hours, and sometimes there is a low level of comfort. Some coaches have very good conditions, but those with low costs offer, most of the time, precarious conditions. If you spend 30-40 hours cramped, without the possibility to stretch your legs and in a hellish noise, you will arrive very tired at the destination.

Personal car

Traveling by car gives you a lot of flexibility. You will choose the route you want, you will take as many breaks as you want, and you can visit the cities you pass through along the way. However, the responsibility of driving your own car is an important factor, not to mention the high fuel costs. In terms of costs, you must be aware that you will pay tolls and vignette fees for each country on the road.
