As one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands, Nijmegen has a compact, historic core around the Waalkade riverfront. The annual Vierdaagsefeesten, the festival around the Four Days Marches, attract large groups of visitors, which calls for manoeuvrable vehicles that cope well with the narrow streets.

What does coach hire in Nijmegen cost?

Nijmegen's compact historic core has limited space for large vehicles, so coach companies often choose a pick-up and drop-off point just outside the centre. This usually has no effect on the price, but it does on the exact walking route. As everywhere, the final price also depends on the distance, the vehicle type you choose and the date. Request a free price estimate for your exact route.

Practical: getting on board and local points to note

During the Vierdaagsefeesten (July), Nijmegen's city centre is closed to motor traffic for days. When visiting the festival, always plan a pick-up point outside the centre, for example at Nijmegen-Heyendaal.

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

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 Nijmegen?

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 Nijmegen 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.

What the municipality of Nijmegen says about large vehicles

A vehicle longer than 6 metres or higher than 2.4 metres, such as a coach, may not park on or beside a public road, nor in a car park.
There are separate parking spaces for large vehicles, where they may stand for up to 24 hours.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about coach hire in Nijmegen

Is there transport suitable for the Vierdaagsefeesten?

Yes, but allow for extra crowds and changed traffic routes during the Four Days week. Discuss this with the coach company in advance.

Can the coach get close to the historic city centre?

Because of the narrow streets, a minibus or midibus is often more practical in the centre of Nijmegen than a large coach.

Can a coach enter Nijmegen's city centre during the Vierdaagsefeesten?

No, during the festival week the city centre is closed to motor traffic. The coach company will suggest a pick-up point outside it, for example at Heyendaal station.

Is group transport for the Four Days Marches walkers themselves also possible?

Yes, transport to and from the starting points of the walks is a common request in this period.

Can the coach make a stop along the way?

Yes, click "Add a stop" in the search form to add one or more stops to the route, for example to pick someone up along the way.

Does the coach also run very early in the morning or late in the evening?

Yes, give your preferred departure time in your request; most coach companies in our network also drive outside normal office hours.
