ITS-Reizen

Coach travel to Madurodam.

For groups from the north, a day at Madurodam means a long drive to the other side of the country. On an ITS-Reizen coach your group sits comfortably together while our driver takes care of the route to The Hague and back.

Travelling in comfort to the miniature park

Heading to Madurodam from Friesland, Groningen or Drenthe in the north of the Netherlands means spending a good part of the day on the road. That is exactly when a proper coach makes the difference: roomy seats, a set place for coats and bags, and a driver who knows the way, so the group arrives refreshed.

We take school classes, clubs, families and seniors' groups to Madurodam. For the group leader it is all very straightforward: one departure point, one coach and a fixed time for everyone to get back on board.

  • Arrive refreshed after a long journey
  • Add a programme in The Hague or by the sea
  • Coaches and double-deckers for up to 90 people
  • Breaks along the way to suit your group

The long drive to The Hague

For groups from the northern Netherlands, Madurodam is a fair distance away: from Friesland, allow two to two and a half hours each way, depending on traffic and your pick-up point. That makes it a real coach day. We plan a break along the way so everyone can stretch their legs. Our driver is bound by statutory driving and rest times: while you visit the park, he takes his compulsory rest so he can drive the return journey fresh. If the day gets very long, for instance with an evening programme by the sea, we look at whether a second driver is needed.

A programme for the whole day

With a coach of your own, the group is not tied to a single address. Many groups start the day at Madurodam and then carry on to the Scheveningen seafront, the beach or the centre of The Hague. The driver takes you from one place to the next according to the agreed programme and drops you as close to the entrance as possible. If you would also like to stop for lunch or make a stop along the way, just mention it in your request. We will then check whether the programme fits within the time available and the driver's working hours, and suggest a realistic schedule for the day.

With the whole school or a large party

If several primary school groups are visiting Madurodam at the same time, a 90-seat double-decker is a practical choice. Everyone travels in one vehicle, and the teachers and supervisors can easily keep an eye on things. For even larger groups, several coaches run to the same schedule, so all the classes arrive and leave at roughly the same time. Let us know the number of pupils and supervisors in your request, and we will advise on the combination of coaches that suits you best.

A relaxed day out for seniors

Seniors' associations are fond of Madurodam, because the park is easy to get around and can be explored at your own pace. On the coach we keep to a relaxed rhythm: a coffee stop on the way there, plenty of time in the park and no rush when boarding. If anyone is bringing a folding rollator or wheelchair, please let us know in advance; it usually fits in the luggage hold and the driver will know what to look out for. We can also book entrance tickets for the group if you wish; an administration fee may apply.

Two days on the coast

If a day there and back feels too short, the trip can also be spread over two days. For example, Madurodam and a walk around The Hague on the first day, a night on the coast, and Scheveningen or a museum on the second day before the coach heads home. For clubs and company outings, that makes for a relaxed trip without long days. We are happy to help book a hotel; an administration fee may apply. Tell us in your request which elements you would like to combine, and we will work out the journeys and the driver's schedule for both days.
