Europa Park to Holiday Park on public transport...

[eyeamthu1]

Hi... I'm planning on visiting Europa Park and possibly some other German parks in the Summer, but need to do the whole thing on public transport. Obviously hiring a car would be easier, but I'm only 21 and this makes things awkward and expensive.

 

I've figured that I can fly into Baden-Baden airport (with Ryanair) and get a shuttle bus to Europa Park and back. I imagine a lot of people from the UK do similar... But I'd quite like to add on an extension to the trip to visit Holiday Park (for Expedition GeForce) too - has anyone else attempted to do this on public transport? I'd need to get there from the airport or Europa Park itself. Bear in mind that I'm trying to keep costs to a minimum, and would ideally be able to do the whole 'side trip' to Holiday Park in a day...

 

Thanks,

-Alex

Public transport is really excellent in Germany, so you'll be absolutely fine! I regularly travel from London to Germany by train - in fact I did London-Paris, Paris-Kaiserslautern and Kaiserslautern-Hassloch for another blast of EGF last year, although you'll most likely find that your flight version is a bit cheaper.

 

You can easily get to Holiday Park via Hassloch (Pfalz) station - there's a shuttle bus run by VRN. Scan down to Bus Transfers here:

For any Deutsche Bahn train information you require, just go to the following website:
