Which coach company is closest to your departure address in Assen?

Enter the address your group leaves from. You then see two things: whether we recognise that address, and which coach companies on BusOffer are closest to it. Driving to the start is part of the price of every trip, so a company nearby starts lower. Which spot a coach may use there is something you agree with the coach company; it differs per street and per municipality, and we don’t know it.

Where is the easiest place for a coach to pick up in Assen?

A busy city centre is not always the easiest place to get on board. These are the two kinds of places where a coach can usually stop easily.

At Assen station

Easy to reach and known to almost every driver, and your group can get there by public transport. Many stations have a strip where loading for a short time is allowed; your coach company knows which one.

A P+R (park and ride) site or car park on the edge of town

More room to turn and to wait if needed, without having to enter the often narrower city centre — handy with a large group or a tight schedule.

These are kinds of places, not addresses. Exactly where a coach may stop differs per street and per moment; your coach company knows that for your date and agrees it with you.
