De Efteling Travel Deal Posted by ATLC

As you can see at www.efteling.nl and on De Efteling VT page, this is one of the best family amusement parks that The Netherlands has to offer. The main theme is 'fairy tales' and it really is fun for young and old. Almost every Dutch child will have been to De Efteling on a school trip or with their (grand)parents. I too have my own childhood memories of De Efteling, and I visited again 25 years later. I suppose I should go again soon!

Dutch Railway (www.ns.nl) offers a good discount from any station in The Netherlands to the nearest train station to De Efteling), including bus transportation from the station to De Efteling PLUS entrance fees.

You do this by buying the so-called NS-Wonderkaart (wonder card). This is exclusively available from the NS website.
Of course the discount differs, depending on with how many people you travel (adults/children).
In general the discount is 20% on train tickets (from age 12) PLUS 4 euro discount on the entrance fee per person (23 euro instead of 27 euro).
Children under 12 travel for free by train and bus in this offer. This saves you 4 euro per child under 12.

Example:
a family of 2 adults, 1 child over 12, and 1 child under 12, travelling from Amsterdam. They pay 156,60 euro instead of 190,90 euro (discount 34,30 euro) for train/bus + entrance fees.

Oh and, children under 12 receive a gift!
