Getting there from Strasbourg
By van with a driver. Pick-up at your hotel, the station or the airport, drop-off as close to the entrance as possible, and a return at the time you choose. For a family or a group, it is often simpler than several cars. Our van carries up to 8 passengers with luggage, our saloon car up to 3. Child seats on request, and a pushchair can fit with 8 passengers.
By public transport. There is no direct train from Strasbourg to the park. The nearest station is Ringsheim/Europa-Park, in Germany, with a bus to the entrance (source: Europa-Park). From Strasbourg you usually have to change trains. See Getting around Alsace without a car.
Price. It depends on the pick-up point and the type of journey (one way, return, waiting): the simulator shows the price in 30 seconds, for the whole vehicle. For more than 8 people, several vehicles on quote.
Before you go
- Bring photo ID (ID card or passport): Rust is in Germany.
- Book your tickets on the official Europa-Park website.
- Agree with the driver the time and place of the return.
- Check the closures before choosing your date.
