Arrival

Your way to Aachen

Aachen is the westernmost city in Germany and lies on the border with the Netherlands and Belgium. To the south, Aachen borders the Eifel and the High Fens, which are ideal for a trip into the countryside. If you're in Aachen for a while, it's definitely worth taking a detour into the surrounding area!

The nearest airports are Cologne Bonn Airport (85 km), Düsseldorf Airport (99 km) and Maastricht Aachen Airport (27 km) in the Netherlands and Liège Airport (60 km) in Belgium.

Bus travel in Aachen

ASEAG buses make it easy for you to reach your destination. On the website of the mobility service provider you will find a timetable information, up-to-date transport information and more to help you plan your journey. It's even easier with the movA app. Here you will not only find important information and tickets for your bus journey, but also information on alternatives, such as eScooters, bike and car sharing.

Especially interesting for tourists - eezy.nrw. Simply download the movA or naveo app and check in with the app when you get on and check out again when you get off. You always pay the cheapest price and without the stress of fares. This allows you to experience sights, the surrounding region and nature in a relaxed and flexible way. You can find more information at https://www.aseag.de/eezy

The AVV (Aachener Verkehrsbund) is responsible for cross-border journeys in the region and the Euregio. So if you would like to visit the Eifel or Maastricht before, during or after your visit to Aachen, you can get all the information you need there.
