Provincie Limburg Travel Forum

thanks a lot

I am flying into Brussels on a Friday morning at 7 AM. I need to get to Maastricht by 4 PM. What would be the suggested method of getting there? I am getting conflicting information on train and bus scheduling sites to thought I'd try here.
Thanks, Will

I would like to know if the shops are open this 2nd May thank you.

Hi again:

Does anybody have any idea how much the bus from Maastricht to Liege/Leuk costs?

What bus number is it?

Can I buy the ticket at CS or around the area at a ticket office?

How long does it take?

Am I correct that strippenkaarts are not accepted?

I was pondering whether the train or the bus was the best option. Price and time are big factors.

As always, dank u wel.

Hi again.

I might as well change my name to 'veolia', since I have so many questions about their service.

Ordinarily I buy a ticket from the driver to get into Aachen from Maastricht. I imagine that this is more expensive. It always seems to cost around 8 Euros or so for a round trip.

Is there a place that sells Veolia bus tickets either in Maastricht CS or around the station?

Any idea what the cost would be for a round trip for one person?

If I'm not mistaken, strippenkaarts are not accepted on 420.

Thanks.

Hi there.

I am going to spend some time in Valkenburg instead of Maastricht this year, and have many transport questions.

I'll start with this one.

I know that Veolia operates a train from Maastricht to Valkenburg.

Does anybody know if the train accepts strippenkaarts? If so, how many zones would I have to stamp?

Also, if choosing a bus route, what line would I use from outside Maastricht CS?

Any idea how many strips/zones this might take?

I go to the o.v. page for advice, but it isn't really clear about how many zones it would require, or if the train takes strip tickets.

Thanks for your help, as always.

MVG,

Does anyone know of any cafes or pubs in Maastricht that show the Formula One races? I have acess to a television but I would much rather watch while hoisting a few Ales.....

Later this month we will be travelling to Holland and staying in Nijmegen for a week. The family consists of ourselves (two adults and a girl, 16 and a boy 13) and my parents. We will have a rental car and are eager to explore.

My parents were born in the Netherlands and speak the language... we will be visiting their birthplace in Noord Holland / Friesland but they've never visited Limburg (or Gelderland? for Arnhem and Nijmegen).

We all love history, cultural festivals, hiking, architecture, etc. I've received many tips from reading VT pages... if anyone could particularly recommend an event or exhibition thats not to be missed, we would welcome your suggestions!

A question about the Roman road (the Limes?) that was discovered recently near Utrecht? Can that be visited or is it still under excavation? We will be visiting Xanten in Germany so that would be a connection to the Roman history in the area. Any other suggestions?

I have another request for ideas to help my kids complete some special assignments for school while they are in Holland. I will post them in another Forum Post because this is so long already.

Thank you in advance for your ideas!

Is it possible to purchase a Euregio ticket at the train station in Maastricht?

Hi, it's hard to find out info about this hotel online. But the location and price is very convenient. Does anyone know anything about it? Mostly I'd like to know if it's clean and if still exists because it's not on any of the hotel booking sites.

Hotel De La Station
Stationsplein 9, Roermond

Thanks!

How can I get to DRIE LANDEN PUNT - 3 LAND POINT from Aachen? Is there a bus from Aachen that will take me to the observation tower?

Is it true that coffee shops in Maastricht are now taking fingerprints of the customers?

Hi VT members,

I was wondering if you can give me some advice on Zuid Limburg.

a) Is it easy to drive in Zuid Limburg on the hills?

b) Where should I go if I want to see hills set in beautiful landscapes for
photography and a super time for my dogs?

c) Do Slenaken and Gulpen have what I'm looking for? Amazing hilly landscapes?

d) Do you know how long the drive will be from Amsterdam?

Thanks
Glen

We will be there tomorrow for one night.

We would like a fun place/casual but not too expensive. Any ethnic cuisine is interesting to us.

We are staying at the Botel and will be wandering toward that main square area where all those restaurants are too. We are willing to walk across the river of course for the right place. Thanks bunches.

I'm visiting Maastricht next month (from Japan) and staying for one night. I want to go to book stores in Maastricht, which I can get books about arts, design, interiors, or architecture. Are there any good book stores which has these books? Antiquarian bookshops are also fine.

Any idea, please? I couldn't find Neosporine in the store...

I looked around myself, but it seems that I really need help of a local person. So, guys, any advice on places where they would fix my shoes? Preferably close to the center. If you know of a place, please note the address also; or I'll be lost...

I am flying from London to Eindhoven on 18 September, for onward transit to Roermond. Can yo tell me the train times. I will be arroving at 1910.

Thank you

Thanks,

I am studying abroad from the U.S. to Maastricht. The place i'm going in maastricht is called Teikyo University Holland. Does anybody know anything about the place seen it or heard anything about it??

Sorry, what I ment was what is the visitign hours time and cost for st pietersberg?

What are the visiting hours, and how much does it cost?

I am planning on going to Maastricht from Aachen. They only lie about 15 km from one another, but since there is no direct train line running between the 2, the journey takes over an hour!

What is a quicker, better way to make this journey? Is there a coach that one can take? We will be a group of 4, so would it be better take a taxi? Any help is appreciated!
