Long-distance buses to or from Amsterdam on Eurolines

by , but I’ll warn you in advance that it’s kind of hard to use. The link just above is for the English-language version of the Netherlands site, and once you are there it’s not too bad, but if you start at Eurolines.com you might never find this page on your own.

The Eurolines office in Amsterdam

There are actually two Eurolines ticket offices in Amsterdam. The one that is easiest to reach for most people is at Rokin 10, and that’s just down Damrak street from the train station so it’s very easy to find. The other office is at Julianaplein 5, and that is just next to where the buses actually leave, just outside of the Amstel train station – about 2 kms south of the main (Centraal) train station.

The office in the city center closes in the late afternoon and is closed Sundays, but the one near the bus terminal itself is open from 7am to 11pm daily.

The bus departure point

Just ask someone how to get to Amstel Station and you’ll be there before you know it.

Want to compare typical prices of buses with trains and flights?

In almost every case the bus will be the cheapest method for getting around, but it’s usually also the slowest and least comfortable option, considering how much shorter the flights always will be. So to help you decide I’ve put together special pages that lay out all your options in one place.
