Transfer to Europa‑Park
from Strasbourg

With Elsass VTC, your private chauffeur takes you directly from Alsace to Europa‑Park and Rulantica in Rust. A door-to-door transfer, no connections or fixed timetables: you leave when you want in the morning and return when the park closes, not before. Ideal for families, friends, or a combined park and water park stay.

Why a private transfer

Why a private transfer rather than a shuttle?

Completely free timings
That is the shuttle limit: the last coach generally leaves in the late afternoon, well before the evening shows and illuminations. With Elsass VTC, you stay until closing time if you wish; you set the arrival time in the morning and the return time in the evening, and your driver adapts to you.
No connections
Changing trains and then buses with young children, a stroller and bags is an ordeal. The private transfer picks you up from your hotel, home or chosen station and drops you off directly at the park entrance. No connections, no luggage to watch on a platform.
Fixed fare announced before departure
For two adults and three children, the combined cost of return train and bus tickets quickly adds up, whereas for a group, the private transfer often becomes comparable, or even more attractive — and infinitely more comfortable. The rate is fixed, quoted before departure, regardless of the number of passengers in the vehicle.

Getting to Europa‑Park from Alsace — the complete guide

Europa-Park, in Rust, is Germany’s leading leisure park and one of the largest in Europe, with over a hundred attractions spread across themed areas inspired by European countries. Right next door is Rulantica, its indoor water world. Together, they attract millions of visitors each year, many from Alsace and the tri-border region. From Strasbourg, the site is less than an hour away — an ideal day trip, with no overnight stay needed.

How long does it take from Strasbourg?

By car or private transfer, allow about fifty minutes from Strasbourg, with most of the journey on the motorway. From Sélestat, the park is even closer, around forty minutes. From Colmar, allow about fifty-five minutes. These times are approximate: traffic near the park in high season and possible border checks can lengthen them. Your driver anticipates these factors and sets off early enough to drop you off at opening time if you wish.

Train, coach or private transfer

In reality, several options exist to reach Rust without a car. For example, the train connects Strasbourg to the German station of Ringsheim in about forty-five minutes, from where a free shuttle takes you to the park entrance in about ten minutes — provided you select the correct destination when booking your ticket. Coaches also leave from Strasbourg bus station in season, usually in the morning for a return in the late afternoon.

While these options are economical for a solo traveler, they quickly show their limits for groups or families: rigid schedules, connections with children and luggage, and especially a last departure often scheduled before the park closes, which means missing the evening shows and illuminations. This is precisely where the private transfer proves its worth.

Good to know: Europa‑Park and Rulantica are located in the same place, in Rust, Germany. The journey and transfer rate are the same for either. Remember to provide each passenger, including children, with a valid ID due to possible checks at the border.

The advantage of a private transfer for a day at the park

With Elsass VTC, your day revolves around you, not around transport schedules: you set the morning departure time and the evening return time. Your driver picks you up at your door — hotel, home or station — and drops you off directly at the park entrance, with no connections or luggage to watch. The rate is fixed, quoted before departure, regardless of the number of passengers. For a group, it often becomes comparable to the combined train and bus tickets, for incomparable comfort.

With family, friends, or for a combined stay

The private transfer is particularly suited to families with young children, for whom public transport connections are draining, and to groups of friends who want to travel together hassle-free. It is also ideal for stays combining Europa-Park and Rulantica over two days, or for those extending their trip to discover Alsace. Elsass VTC can safely handle transfers with children, then arrange a discovery tour on subsequent days.

Extend your stay to discover Alsace

Many Europa-Park visitors take the opportunity to explore neighboring Alsace. After a day at the park, Elsass VTC can take you to Strasbourg and its cathedral, to Colmar and its Petite Venise, or to the villages of the Route des Vins. It becomes your single point of contact for all trip logistics, from daily transfers to excursions, without having to rent a car or deal with parking.
