Keukenhof Transportation

From Schiphol (=Amsterdam airport) bus line 58 runs every 15 minutes to Keukenhof. The same goes for bus line 54 from Leiden Central Station. You're dropped off at the main entrance of the Keukenhof (see photo). Super convenient!

There are also direct services from Amsterdam and The Hague, as well as combination tickets (bus and entrance fee). Just look at the web link below.

I took the train from Amsterdam to Leiden. They leave regularly and it takes around 40 minutes. From there head right out of the station to the Bus station where there is the Conexxion office. There you can buy a ticket which cost 15.50€ (less for children) and covers the return journey and entrance. The 54 bus leaves every half an hour and the journey takes just over 30 minutes. Check the timetable when you get off for your return connection. When you are inside Keukenhof you will find signposts for Conexxion which you need to follow to get back to the bus.

When you get there by car you will be directed to on of the parking places.
There is a seperate parking spot for touringcars, it is called "Hyacint".
We parked our car on "Tulip" that is at the opposite site of the parking "Narcis".
Inside the park you will notice some signalisation.
It shows you the direction of all the locations and the direction of your parking place, so you can easy find your way around and back.

From Apeldoorn, take the A1 motorway to Amsterdam. Then follow the signs to Schiphol and take the A4 in the direction of The Hague (Den Haag). Turn off the motorway at exit 4 and follow the signs 'N207-Lisse'. From Utrecht, take the A12 to The Hague and then the A4 to Amsterdam. Turn off the motorway at exit 4 and follow the signs 'N207-Lisse'.

From Rotterdam, take the A4 to Den Haag-Amsterdam. Turn off the A4 at exit 4 and follow the signs 'N207-Lisse'. From The Hague, take the A44 and turn off at exit 3 'Noordwijkerhout/Lisse'. Then take the N208 to Lisse.

From here on you just follow the signs.

The park offers easy-access facilities for the disabled. Pushchairs and wheelchairs are available free of charge. (Please reserve wheelchairs in advance). Keukenhof’s restaurants and terraces are a great place to take a break or relax after a well-spent day.

A colourful brochure in Dutch with a clearly described cycling route and map. It starts at Leiden Central station (where you can rent bicycles) and is 37 kms long.
The route is signposted by 6-sided green signs saying 'Ontdek het landschap van Zuid-Holland' (discover the landscape of Zuid-Holland).

Parking is well organised at Keukenhof.
