How do you get to Phantasialand?
Getting to Phantasialand
Phantasialand is in Brühl (North Rhine-Westphalia), between Cologne and Bonn. From the south of the Netherlands it takes about an hour and a half by car, and from the middle of the country around two and a half hours (without traffic jams).
By car
The address for your satnav is Berggeiststraße 31-41, 50321 Brühl. On the A553, take exit 2 Brühl-Süd. The park warns that satnavs sometimes suggest the Bornheim exit; take Brühl-Süd anyway. From the Netherlands you usually drive via Venlo (A61) or via Heerlen and Aachen (A4) to the A1 or A61 and then the A553.
Parking
Parking at P1 (Mystery) or P2 (China) costs € 8 per car per day, payable in cash or by debit card. Hotel guests park for free.
Motorhomes
There are no parking spaces for motorhomes and caravans.
Disabled parking
There are disabled parking spaces at P1 and P2. Let the staff know when you drive in.
By train and shuttle bus
By train, travel to Brühl (Rheinl) station, for example on the RE5, RB26 or RB48 from Köln Hbf. From the station and from the Brühl Mitte Stadtbahn stop, the Phantasialand shuttle bus runs to the park roughly every half hour. A return costs € 6 per person; note that a regular VRS ticket is not valid on this bus.
Alternatively, take bus 985 to the Berggeiststraße stop, then walk for about ten minutes.
By plane
The nearest airport is Cologne/Bonn, 33 kilometres away. Düsseldorf is also less than an hour's drive. From the Netherlands there's no need to fly; Maastricht and Eindhoven airports are 104 and 162 kilometres from the park.
