The main international airport in The Netherlands is Amsterdam (Schiphol) (120 km). Other international airports nearby are Brussels (Belgium) (120 km) and Düsseldorf (Germany) (150 km). There is also a small airport in Eindhoven (30km), relatively close to the workshop location.

Airports ↔ Tilburg by train

In order to get by train from the airport to the city of Tilburg, which is close (approx. 10 km) to the workshop location in Hilvarenbeek, you may consider the schedules on the websites of the train companies:

Dutch railway company, national connections »
Dutch railway company, international connections »
German railway company »

Concrete train connections on Sunday, 5 July, from your arrival airport to Tilburg can be found by going to www.ns.nl/en/travellers/home. If you arrive at Amsterdam International Airport (AMS), you should enter "Schiphol" as the corresponding train station.

When using the train, please be aware of the following: When you buy a one-way ticket at the machine, you do not simply get a paper-ticket, but a so-called "single-use chipcard". The single-use chipcard is a paper ticket that contains a chip. After buying the ticket at the machine, you must "check-in" (by holding the card in front of one of the yellow posts) before you step on the train, otherwise the ticket is not validated. If you have something different than a one-way/single-use ticket, you should also "check-out" (again by holding the card in front of one of the yellow posts) after leaving the train.
