Every year, millions of visitors flock to Rust, Germany, to discover the “World’s Best Amusement Park”: Europa-Park and its Rulantica water world. If the destination is a dream for young and old, the journey to get there from Alsace can sometimes dampen the enthusiasm.
Should you take the bus (often crowded), the train (which requires a connection in Ringsheim), or your own car? At VTC Strasbourg DMD, we have the solution to start your day of leisure without the slightest stress: the private driver.
1. The limits of public transport to Rust
Strasbourg is located about 55 km from the park. If the distance seems short, the logistics can be complex:
- The Bus (CTBR Shuttle): It imposes fixed and rigid schedules. If you miss the evening start, you’re stuck. Also, traveling standing up with excited or tired children is not ideal.
- The Train: There is no direct station “Europa-Park”. You have to take a TER train to the German station in Ringsheim and then wait for a shuttle bus to reach the entrance. It’s a painful break with strollers or bags.
2. The advantages of the Strasbourg – Europa-Park VTC transfer
By opting for a Europa-Park specialized private driver service, you choose absolute simplicity:
Door-to-Door
Your driver will pick you up in front of your hotel, Airbnb or home in Strasbourg. You load your belongings in the trunk, put your children in secure car seats (provided on request), and you only get out of the car in front of the main entrance of the park or your hotel in Rust (Bell Rock, Colosseo, Krønasår…).
Total flexibility
Want to make it to the opening at 9:00 a.m. to be the first on the Silver Star ? Would you like to stay until closing time to enjoy the night show? You decide the schedules. Your driver will be waiting for you at the agreed time for the return trip, allowing you to doze off comfortably in an air-conditioned sedan after an exhausting day.
3. Have you come from far away to visit the park?
Many international visitors land at German or French airports on their way to Europa-Park. Managing baggage and cross-border connections is often a headache.
VTC Strasbourg DMD provides a direct link between your arrival airport and the amusement park. We serve the following platforms on a daily basis:
- From Baden-Baden: Located just 45 minutes from the park, it is the ideal “Low Cost” airport. Book your private hire from Baden-Baden airport to Europa-Park for a quick transfer.
- From Frankfurt: For long-haul flights, we provide transfer from Frankfurt Airport. After a long flight, nothing beats the comfort of a private Mercedes to finish the journey.
- From Stuttgart: If you land in the capital of Baden-Württemberg, our Stuttgart airport ride-hailing service will take you directly to the gates of Rulantica.
4. Ideal for groups and large families
An outing to Europa-Park is often done with the family. Taking two separate taxis is expensive and complicates the organization.
We have Mercedes V-Class Vans that can accommodate up to 7 passengers and their luggage. This is the most economical and user-friendly solution: you all travel together, you share the costs, and the good mood starts as soon as you start the journey.
