Route description

If you are flying to Schiphol Amsterdam Airport, the easiest way to travel to Leiden is by train. The airport includes an underground railway station, with frequent services to Leiden (as final destination, or en route to The Hague/Den Haag and Rotterdam). It takes 15-20 minutes from the airport to Leiden . 

The Leiden University Visitor's Centre opposite the Station will be glad to help you with directions and other information. 

Taxis and buses are located just outside the Station, to the left and right respectively. Take bus 30 to Paterstraatje, or bus 48 or 49 to Noordeinde.
