Taxi, train or plane?
By comparison, the train takes 3 h 15 centre to centre and the plane 1 h 20 in the air, to which you must add airport access, check-in and baggage reclaim. A taxi is not the fastest on paper; it becomes the fastest door to door as soon as you travel in a group, with luggage, or outside convenient timetables.
In practice
The journey crosses a border: each passenger needs valid identification. Allow 5 h 35 of driving, with a regulatory break roughly every two hours. The vehicle is insured for international travel and the driver carries the required paperwork. Towards Cologne, 5 h 35 on the road leaves one thing to remember: the pick-up time, which we work out for you.
