Does the coach also drive back on the last day of the festival?

Yes. For a multi-day visit you book an outward journey and a separate return journey. We agree a fixed time and place where the group boards again.

Can we bring tents and camping gear?

Yes, they go in the luggage hold. Let us know in advance roughly how much luggage the group is bringing, and we will take that into account when choosing the coach.

Can you help with festival tickets?

Just ask. Where the organisers sell group tickets, we can help with the booking; an administration fee may apply.

Where does the group get off at the festival?

At the spot the organisers designate for coaches. We agree this in advance and give you the exact arrangements for both journeys.

How big does the group need to be?

Our smallest coach has 30 seats, our largest 90. For bigger groups, several coaches travel together.

Coach hire to the Zwarte Cross.

Heading to the Zwarte Cross in Lichtenvoorde together by coach? ITS-Reizen takes groups of friends, motorcycle clubs and societies to the festival in the Achterhoek region with their own driver and picks everyone up again afterwards. Nobody has to drive, and the whole group arrives at the same time.

Motocross and music in the Achterhoek

The Zwarte Cross in Lichtenvoorde is a mix of motocross, music and spectacle that draws huge crowds every year, usually in July. Many visitors stay for several days and camp on site.

For a group, the coach is the easiest way to get there. Everyone boards together at a fixed spot, the tents and bags go in the luggage hold, and after the festival we bring the group home again.

There on the first day, back on the last

If you are staying on the campsite for several days, you do not need a coach parked up for the whole festival. We drive your group to Lichtenvoorde on the day you arrive and come back on the agreed day to pick everyone up again. That makes two separate journeys, each with its own departure time. Agree in advance who is coming back on the coach and where the group will meet, so the driver can leave on time. If some of the group are staying for less time, we will work out together whether an extra journey makes sense.

Camping gear in the luggage hold

A festival with camping means lots of gear: tents, sleeping bags, cool boxes and bags of clothes for a few days. A coach's luggage hold is spacious, but with a full coach it soon adds up. So let us know in advance how many people are coming and roughly how much luggage each person is bringing. We will then choose a coach that suits, or schedule a second coach if needed. Please tell us about large or unusual items in advance.

A spot for the coach by the festival site

At a big festival the area around the site is busy, and the organisers often designate a fixed spot where coaches may stop. We agree in advance with you, and where necessary with the organisers, where the group gets off and where the driver will collect you after the festival. That way everyone in the group knows where to be at the end. Share the arrangement in the group chat too, because after a few days of festival not everyone is as sharp on times. If anything changes about that spot at the last minute, the driver will let the contact person know.

Ground rules on the coach

A coach trip to a festival is meant to be fun, and that is fine. We do agree a few clear ground rules in advance with the group organiser: about behaviour on the coach, about what may and may not be brought on board, and about the departure time of the return journey. Having one point of contact in the group makes things much easier for the driver. That way the journey is pleasant for everyone, including those who mainly want to sleep after the festival. If you like, post the ground rules in the group chat beforehand, so everyone knows them before the coach leaves.

From Friesland and the rest of the north

Lichtenvoorde lies in the east of the province of Gelderland, close to the German border. From the north that is quite a drive, so a shared coach saves a lot of hassle with cars, parking and deciding who has to drive home. We pick your group up in Friesland, Groningen, Drenthe, Overijssel or North Holland, and can stop at several places along the way. Would you prefer a large double-decker or a coach with extra comfort? Just mention it in your request.
