Bus Hire in Rotterdam

You can hire a bus, coach or minibus in Rotterdam, Netherlands with a driver included and a fixed quote back within two hours. Rotterdam The Hague Airport is just 7 km out, with Schiphol at 57 km. Minibus hire starts from around €480-€850 per day, with full-size coaches from €750-€1,200.

Operators here cover the modern architecture around the Erasmus Bridge, the Markthal and Cube Houses, the cruise terminal and Europe's largest port on harbour tours. The film festival in January and North Sea Jazz in July are busy dates. Every operator we book holds a valid Netherlands transport licence and full passenger liability insurance.

Airports Serving Rotterdam

We cover group airport transfers to and from all airports below. Prices are fixed, and our drivers track flight arrivals in real time.

Two airports and a cruise terminal

Rotterdam The Hague Airport (RTM) is about 7 km from the centre, roughly 15 minutes, and handles European traffic; Schiphol is about 57 km and 45 minutes to an hour for long-haul arrivals. The third gateway matters as much here: the Cruise Terminal on the Wilhelminakade handles turnaround calls, and shore-excursion and transfer work around sailing days is a large part of the city's coach market. A pre-booked transfer is timed to the flight or the ship.

A modern centre that coaches can actually use

Rotterdam is unusual among Dutch cities in being straightforward for coaches: the wartime bombing and postwar rebuilding left wide roads and a modern grid rather than a medieval core, so set-down near the Markthal, the Erasmus Bridge or the Cube Houses is generally workable. Ahoy Rotterdam in the south hosts concerts, congresses and sporting events with its own coach access.

The harbour tour boats leave from the Leuvehaven and are a standard group booking, pairing a water leg with a walking circuit of the Kop van Zuid and the Hotel New York building on the old Holland America Line pier.

Kinderdijk, Delft and The Hague

The nineteen UNESCO-listed Kinderdijk windmills are about 25 minutes east and are the most requested excursion from the city, with coach parking at the visitor centre and entry slots worth booking in high season. Delft is about 20 minutes north and The Hague around 30, so a single day can pair the windmills with a historic town or the Mauritshuis. A coach with driver covers the whole circuit comfortably.
