Transportation - Information and Directions
Shuttle Bus/ Touring Car in Enschede, Netherlands:
- ACBS is offering free shuttle bus/ touring car transportation to-and-from the Eden Dish, Eden Star, and Van der Valk hotels. This shuttle can take you from your hotel to the site of the World Conference on the campus of the University of Twente, and back to your hotel in Enschede/Hengelo during designated hours, June 29 - July 3.
The Drienerburght and Broeierd are within ten walking minutes. ACBS does not offer transportation for these two conference hotels.

Train from Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport:
- On the Schiphol Airport there is a train station from the Dutch Railroads (NS). In the main Hall (arrivals hall) you can find an information desk (where they can help you plan the trip and print this on a hardcopy) and ticket machines. On the following website you can see which train will leave from Schiphol to Enschede: http://www.ns.nl/cs/Satellite/travellers
(on this website, you'll choose "From: Airport", Airport:"Amsterdam Airport Schiphol", Travel Method:"Bus, Tram, Metro,...", To:Station:"Enschede", then enter your date and approximate time of travel.)
There is a direct train to Enschede but this doesn’t depart that often (once every 2 hours). However every 20 to 30 minutes there is a train that goes to Hilversum, with a stop in Almelo where you should get off. Then take the train to Hengelo which also stops in Enschede. (There are other train routes as well.)
Depending on which train, the travel time to Enschede will be approximately 2 hours and 16 minutes. This trip will cost 24,50 Euro.
If you are staying at the Drienerbrught or Eden Broeierd Hotels, you may want to get off of train at the "Enschede Drienerlo" Station.

Airplane
- You probably have your own method, but, in the USA, I love Kayak, it has a funny name but is a great tool for finding good fares, and good schedules. The only domestic US airline that it does not include is Southwest. You'll have to create a free login, but it's worth it.
Ryanair flies into Eindhoven, Netherlands, and easyJet flies into Amsterdam (among many others of course).
