A coach with driver to or from Lier: where the coach lets its group get off, where it waits, and why it does not drive all the way to the Grote Markt.
Lier is a small town with a compact centre inside its old ramparts, and that makes it popular with groups: everything is within walking distance, from the beguinage to the Zimmer Tower with its clock. A senior citizens' club, a class or a company looking for a quiet day out likes coming here, often combined with a boat trip or a tour of the Kempen.
That compactness has a downside for a coach. The streets inside the ramparts are narrow, and a coach cannot drive all the way to the Grote Markt. So the group gets off on the edge and walks the last stretch; the coach waits at a fixed place outside the centre.
Enter your trip and you will see the prices of the participating coach companies side by side, including companies from the Netherlands that drive in Belgium. The Flemish coach companies on this page are not taking part yet: they are listed without a price with your trip, and you can invite them from there.
Driving from the depot is part of the price of every trip, so a company that is close by usually starts lower. These 52 are within 50 km:
Measured as the crow flies from the centre. Which one is cheapest also depends on the vehicle and the date.
There is no fixed price per town. What you pay depends on the distance, how long the driver works, the type of coach and the day. Driving from the company’s depot is part of the price too: a company close by usually starts lower.
Enter your trip in the form at the top and within 1 minute you will see the prices of the participating coach companies, without obligation.
Agree the drop-off point at the Gasthuisvest with the coach company, and say what time the group will be ready again. If you book a guide through Visit Lier, the town itself says the group arranges the coach; so give the coach company the time and place of the meeting with the guide.
As the source puts it, with the day we read it. A municipality can change a rule or a spot: check the source’s page again just before your trip, and agree the spot with your coach company.

No. Visit Lier says the Grote Markt is not accessible to coaches. Your group gets off at the Gasthuisvest and the coach parks on the Leuvensevest.
At the coach park on the Leuvensevest, by the Molbrug, within walking distance of the centre. The driver waits there until your group is back.
