Getting to the Netherlands

Düsseldorf International Airport (Germany)
Since Arnhem is not far away from the border with Germany, flying to Düsseldorf in Germany is also an option. If you don’t have an EU passport, this could mean you also need a visum for Germany. Please check this with your local embassy.
From the airport (Düsseldorf Flughaven station) you can take the local train to the main train station in Düsseldorf, where you can take the ICE high speed train to Arnhem. The total journey time is 1 hour and 20 minutes and a 2nd class ticktet costs about €35. More information & tickets are available on the German Railways (DB) website.
