Cologne is around 260 kilometres from Schiphol – about 2 hours 45 minutes by road. Whether you are heading to a hotel next to the cathedral, a trade fair at the Koelnmesse or a holiday apartment in the Belgian Quarter, a private transfer takes you there directly from the arrivals hall.
River cruises on the Rhine
Cologne is a popular embarkation point for Rhine river cruises, with ships mooring along the riverbanks near the old town. Enter the mooring address from your cruise documents as your destination and add your ship name in the cruise field, so we can plan your arrival around boarding time.
Hotels, apartments and the Koelnmesse
We drive to any address in Cologne, including private homes and holiday rentals. The Koelnmesse exhibition centre is in Deutz, on the east bank of the Rhine. Cologne’s centre is a low-emission zone (Umweltzone); compliance is the operator’s responsibility.
