From Eindhoven Airport

From Eindhoven Airport to Eindhoven (train station)

You need to take bus number 401 this bus will go to the train station (its terminal station). To travel in the Netherlands you need a OV chip card (http://www.ov-chipkaart.nl/?taal=en)

The OV-chipkaart is the new means of payment for the public transport system in The Netherlands. The smart card is the size of a bank card and contains an invisible chip. The OV-chipkaart can be loaded with credit in euros with which you can travel anywhere within The Netherlands, or with a travel product such as a single or season ticket.

From Eindhoven (train station) to Ede-Wageningen (train station)

Upon arrival at the train station of Eindhoven you can by a train ticket (or by OV chipcard) to Ede-Wageningen. Click here to "practice" using the machines. Small tip: pressing the English flag in the bottom of the screen makes it a lot easier.

Note that the ticket machines and the ticket offices generally do not accept credit cards. You can pay with debit cards (Maestro). Paying in cash is only possible at the ticket office. It will cost you an additional 50 cents.

The tickets are valid on all national trains and some international trains. For national trips like this, no reservation is needed. With the ticket you can just enter the first train that goes in the direction you want to. By using the OV chipcard you have to check in and out by entering and leaving a station, bus or metro.

That leads us to finding the right train. You can use the blue screens near the entrance or the yellow signs. The blue screens are sorted on time. The yellow signs are sorted on destionation first. If you find yourself not sure what to do, or where to go, don't hesitate to ask the NS service staff for help.

To get to Wageningen the fastest you want to get an Intercity service going to Utrecht. Utrecht is the station where you need to transfer. The intercity services with Alkmaar and Schiphol (airport) as final destination will also work.

At Utrecht you can look at the big blue sign at the main station hallway or the yellow signs all over the platforms to check the train to Ede-Wageningen. The intercity services with Arnhem and Nijmegen as their final destination pass through Ede-Wageningen.
