Europa Park Trip - first visit

[Shenkra]

Hi guys! I'm going to Europa Park this Halloween in a group of 5 people, but I have some questions about how to get to the park and all that.

 

First of all, I'd like to know which is the cheapest and best way to get to EP from Baden-Baden aeroport. I know there is a shuttle service, but it is quite expensive (30€ per way), and I don't know how much a taxi would be, so we're thinking in buying a Kombi-Ticket, which includes transports and a day ticket, and going there by train-bus (you can see the infor of this ticket here, but it's in germany http://www.bahn.de/regional/view/regionen/bawue/freizeit/europapark_ticket.shtml#).

 

This option seems the best, but we'll do a 4 days trip and we don't know if this Kombi-ticket it's only a "day ticket". I mean, should we do all the ways and visit the park at the same day, or can we go and back in a different days? And the EP ticket entrance must be used in an specific day, or we can decide when to get it? If not, we should probably think in a different way to get to the park, and buy a 2-day ticket instead of this. I hope some of you know more of this Kombi Ticket >.<

 

On the other hand, do you know if there's an express pass for the Horror Nights, and how does it works? We'd probably buy an express if we can, but we don't know how much it costs and what it includes.

 

Well, thanks in advance for your help, I'll be really greatful for any information about transports, tickets, places and all that stuff. You can give me any advice too if you want Thanks again! ^^

 

P.D: Sorry for my bad English, I hope you've understood what I wanted to say

The Kombi ticket is basically a combination of this ticket http://www.bahn.com/i/view/DEU/en/prices/germany-regional/baden-wuerttemberg-ticket.shtml (click Conditions) and the park entrance. With the difference that the combi ticket is valid during morning rush hour (6:00-9:00) as well.

It's valid on 1 single day, so you would need another one for the trip back to the airport.

You get a voucher you can exchange for a park entrance ticket. If that must be for the same day as the Kombi ticket, I don't know. I suggest to email the park this question. http://www.europapark.de/lang-en/Info-and-services/Contact/c285.html

Get the Baden-Württemberg-Ticket in case which is the cheapest option (39€ for 5 persons).

You can use that ticket for a trip to Hiliday Park (Expedition GForce), which is not that far away, as well. The train connection however is not great so you might consider to rent a car for such 1 day.

 

Carpooling (http://www.carpooling.co.uk/) might be an alternative, but 5 persons would need a very big or 2 cars which will be hard to find.
