Utrecht Travel Forum

We plan to take a train to Utrecht from the airport. I have seen schedules that show direct (no change) to Utrecht takes 60 minutes, or change in Duivendrecht that take about 40 minutes. What is best?

Also, can we buy a return ticket that we will not use until we leave about one week later, or must it be bought separately?

The whole train situation has me confused, especially the part of validating tickets before getting on the train. Is there a site that explains all of this? I am used to just handing the ticket to the conductor.

Thanks

I am considering renting a car in Utrecht for one day to get to places the trains don't go to. Is this a complicated process? I am not sure of price etc. What is the best way to get information? I am assuming their are auto rentals in Utrecht.

Im gonna stay in utrecht for 12 months from next september.
You know where i can get info on the university of utrecht's students' residence? there's no link in the uu's website and no e-mail too. You know how much it costs to stay?

Any suggestions for a comfortable place to stay, B&B or pensione type accommodation in Utrecht, or even a small hotel with charm?

Can you please help me? I have to travel from Utrecht (Ruisdaelstraat) to Brussels Airport on the 28th Spetember during the night as I have to catch the plane at 9.20am (28th September). Which is the best way to travel. I'm confused coz most of the websites are in Dutch..aaarrggghh! (www.connexion.nl and www.9292ov.nl). Any help is appreciated :)

Hey all!
Very unexpectedly we (irisbe & diamonddog) are having our friends Sargentjeff (Jeff) and Sapere (Mariangela) visiting for a couple of days.

We have seen a nice documentary about Utrecht, in which it was called "little Amsterdam".

so we decided to go there this coming Sunday, 28th of December.

Has any one good advice what to see there or what to do there that day?
Are there Winterattractions?
Any one knows where to get some good gluehwein or hotchocomilk or wants to join?

Drop a not
we will check this entry till 27th evening!

When I arrive in Maarsen for Christmas, I would like to be able to make several desserts that call for puff pastry. In the US, I am able to purchase frozen puff pastry made by Pepperidge Farm. In the past, I have been able to find phyllo dough in the markets, but not puff pastry, often used for making brie en croute and other lovely desserts. Any suggestions of stores that may carry it?
Thank you!

hallo,
I am a PhD student from Poland desperately looking for a flat in Wageningen, starting from November. Has anyone an advice, as it seems impossible to find anything in that short time?

Hello, my husband will start a Master's Program in Wageningen University in September. We want to travel together with our babies (2 small dogs and a cat). We are now quite dissapointed to hear the university can't help us find a home. Is it really so hard to find an appartment? I will appreciate any advice. Thank you.

AnnaWb and I organise a party night in Utrecht. It will be to celebrate that Anna comes to live in Netherlands again for a study.

The party will be on September 6th starting around 18:30. Location still needs to be determined.

Please sign up on the MEETINGS & EVENTS calendar. More details will follow soon!!

Thanks

Hello, i need a bit information about Wageningen but i don't know where to ask as i don't have any idea where it's exactly located and belong to what province ? Rough location i see on the map, it's quite close to Utrecht. Thanks!

I'm having a holiday in Utrecht in July for 8 days and the friend I was meeting has to work now so I'm on my own. Just wondering whats to see and do in Utrecht and if its worth taking some tours? I want to go to Amsterdam a few times so I guess by train? I'm staying at Hotel Mitland so not in city centre. Any advice would be great.
