How to find the bus 858 in Schiphol?
The Keukenhof Express departs from the bus stop outside Schiphol Plaza. There are numerous direction signs, so you will easily find it at the spot.
How much does a bus ticket cost?
A combi-ticket (entrance + return travel by bus) in 2024 costs € 31,50 for adults and € 18 for kids.
Combi-ticket includes:

What times do the busses leave the airport and leave Keukenhof back to the airport?
Please check the timetable of bus 858 via a free Glimble app. It’s an official app of the Arriva company, which operates Keukenhof Express buses:
If we take the 858 bus directly from the airport to the gardens, will there be a place to store our luggage on either the bus or at the gardens until we are done touring?
The bus 858 will leave back to Schiphol as soon as it brings you to the Keukenhof gardens, so it’s not possible to store your luggage in the bus. There are luggage lockers and the luggage depot in Keukenhof but their capacity is limited. If you are planning to travel back via Schiphol, it’s much easier to leave your luggage there https://www.schiphol.nl/en/at-schiphol/services/luggage-storage
There are free lockers available for luggage at the Gardens according to their website.

You can take your luggage to the bus 858. But please keep in mind that it’s a regular, not a touring bus. It doesn’t have a special luggage compartment, so you will need to take your bags in the bus full with people.

Hello… We are a group of 20 travelling to Tel Aviv, Israel with 9 hours layover in Amsterdam. We want to visit Keukenhoef Gardens. Is there a bus just for us that we can hire so that we do not have to line up. I was there in 2014 and the line up was long except that I requested the kind guard that I wanted to go inside if no one else wanted because I am used to standing in our TTC here in Toronto. He was kind enough to let me in so that I saved time. Thanks.
Hello, you can try making inquiries at the companies offering private bus transfers or bus companies like Flixbus who rent busses with a driver. I hope they can help.
P.S. I see that Flixbus also gives a possibility to get a quote and book a bus online. The price depends on the number of passengers and duration of the rental period.
Hi. If we buy the combi ticket can we use the return trip on another day (i.e., we might want to stay an additional day near Keukenhof)?
Generally, a combi-ticket to Keukenhof is valid for one day (on the day when it’s scanned for the first time).
hello,
I already purchased the keukenhof entrance ticket but i am looking to pre book online for express bus return ticket only. All that i have read is about combi ticket. How to purchase only the bus ticket

Here is what Arriva website says about travelling with pets.
Hello.. Does the bus stop anywhere in between – e.g. Lisse city centre?
Keukenhof Express bus (number 858 from Schiphol and 854 from Leiden Central Station) is direct and non-stop. However you can use a combi-ticket in a regular bus number 50 (to/from Haarlem) which has numerous stops on its route.

Hi, we’ll be there on the weekend of the king’day. Is it better to visit Keukenhof as soon as we arrive at Schiphol airport on Saturday morning (9.30am)? or Sunday? Is it better to take the bus or train from Schiphol to Amsterdam (Leidseplein) if it’s Saturday 27 April. thank you so much
Hallo, we zijn er in het weekend van de king’day. Is het beter om Keukenhof te bezoeken zodra we op zaterdagochtend (9.30 uur) op Schiphol aankomen? of zondag? Is het beter om de bus of trein van Schiphol naar Amsterdam (Leidseplein) te nemen als het zaterdag 27 april is. Heel erg bedankt
On Saturday (King’s day) it will probably be less crowded in Keukenhof because many people will stay in cities to celebrate the King’s day. It’s better to travel directly from Schiphol because on the King’s day transport inside Amsterdam is working with limitations.
Hi does anyone know whether the bus route 858 schedule for year 2019 is out yet or not?
For now you can check it here https://9292.nl/en/journeyadvice/station-schiphol-airport/lisse_keukenhof/departure/
There will be a separate folder with the bus line 858 departure times in 2019 closer to the Keukenhof opening season.
Are the combi tickets (for entrance and travel) only available online or is it possible to purchase them at the bus driver ?
The bus driver sells only travel tickets. But there are sales locations in Schiphol where you can buy combi-tickets to Keukenhof.
thanks for the quick reply 🙂
Can I use combo ticket to travel from Schipol airport to Keukenhof and back to Harlem instead of airport? Thanks
Yes, you can.
vorrei sapere se con la amsterdam & region ticket posso utilizzare gratuitamente il bus 858 dall’aeroporto di Schipol o devo acquistare un biglietto a parte
inoltre vorrei sapare da quale giorno di marzo è attivo tale servizio bus
(mi rispondi anche su mail pf?)
Hi! Please check the article above, it contains answers to the both of your questions.
Good afternoon,
I would like to ask you for advice. We are group around 10 people. We are planning to visit Keukenhof from Schiphol at 13 th of April. Please give me information, bus from Schiphol goes from morning every hour? Is there big que to get to buses? Or its better to buy tickets online? Thank you for information. Best regards Lucie Šafářová
The queue is big, you can see it on the photo above. Moreover, 13 April is the busiest day of the whole season due to the Flower parade.
You can find the link to the bus schedule in the post above. But on 13 April in the afternoon there will be lots of limitations due to the Parade and a return ride between 13:00 and 16:00 can be a problem https://www.bollenstreek.nl/bloemencorso-flower-parade-bollenstreek/?lang=en
It will save you lots of time if you buy tickets online.
Since I understand Bus 50 from Haarlem does not travel directly to the Gardens entrance, how close to the Keukenhof entrance does it get? Where is the bus stop?
You need to travel to the bus stop De Nachtegaal, Lisse. The gardens entrance is 10 – 15 minutes walk from there.
Hi, I dont know if there is any “rainy day policy”, so I think I will buy the ticket at the airport. About this, two questions, do you know where exactly can I get it at Schiphol Airport? and the other one, Do I have to considerer a long waiting time in line to get the bus at airport? I will be in Amsterdam just for a layover of 7 hs, that is why I ask. Thank you! Francisco.
Yes, you can get the tickets at the airport. I don’t know the exact location, but usually direction signs in Schiphol are very clear.
The lines can be huge, depending on the day and weather.
I was looking for information about travelling to Keukenhof and found this very helpful thread. Thank you for helping us.
My question is about combi-ticket. We are a famly of 4 with 2 kids. We are planning to leave from Amsterdam, Europaplein/RAI taking bus 852 to Keukenhof and leave by bus 858 to Schiphol. While the kids ticket has all the destinations, the Adult has sperate tickets for Amsterdam Europaplein(€30) and other destinations(€25).
We are happy to pay for the higher price tickets, but not sure if bus driver will allow us to return to a different destination.
Hope I’ve explained clear enough.
Many thanks!
Hi Xin, yes, I understand the question, but unfortunatelly I don’t have an answer to it.
Personally I think this should not be a problem, especially because you pay a higher price. But there is no official confirmation on the Keukenhof or Arriva websites.
I will be in Keukenhof this week. If I manage to get more information, I will publish an update there.
Have a nice trip!
Thanks for your lightning reply.
Please don’t feel obliged.
We can still buy the entrance tickets online and buy the bus tickets from the drivers.

hello, I bought 3 combo tickets from your site, me and my family. I received 3 tickets with a single number. Will this be a problem .
No, this is no problem. The number on top of your ticket is your order number. It’s the same for all tickets within one order.
At the bottom of each ticket you see a barcode. They are unique for every ticket. These barcodes will be scanned in the bus and at the park entrance.
thank you so much
Hello, do you know if I can use the combi-ticket to board the bus from a bus stops along the arriva bus 50 line instead of boarding at Haarlem station? The bus stop I am saying is the Haarlem Dreef bus stop as it is the closest bus stop to the place where I will be staying
Yes, that should be no problem.
I purchased the ticket online, so I need to print out the ticket?
No, mobile voucher on your phone is enough.
Hello, your thread is awesome,thanks for all advices! We are in three and have a flight layover of 4-4,30 hours. We would like to make a short visit to the Park and come back to Airport. In the worst case of crowded lines I was planning to take a taxi to take us faster. Is it possíble from your experience to do that(traffic jams on sunny days) ? We know it won’t be possíble to see much but,still we think it’s worth it to try without missing our next flight. Thank you!
Hi, the gardens and the roads are the most crowded in the weekend and between 11 and 15 o’clock. So your travel time depends on the time of your visit. But I think 4 – 4,5 hours should still be ok for a short visit.
Thank you for your reply. We are arriving at 9:30 in a wednesday. So we hope we can make it!
and what about travelling with a baby (10 months old), is there room for a buggy?
Yes, there is space for two buggies or wheelchairs in the bus.
I will be reaching Amsterdam on April 13th 9.30 am and planing to head to Keukenhof garden straight from airport and plan to see the Flower parade in Keukenhof where it is be around 3.30pm. After the parade I will go back to Amsterdam City center. Considering the flower parade, will there be any distrubance in bus service in the morning and what would be the traffic after parade as many people will travel.
Can you informações If the 858 bus stop at Ibis Airport Hotel?
Line 858 is a non-stop bus from Schiphol airport to Keukenhof.
Could you Pl suggest alternate travel for keukenhof . The keukenhof express bus departs at 8am. Whereas the garden opens at 8am. We have a tight schedule. So would prefer to reach the garden by 8am. Also we will be purchasing the Amsterdam and REGION Travel Ticket. Awaiting your reply. Thks in advance. Regards
You can travel via Haarlem. The first bus to Keukenhof (line 50) departs at 07:10. Combi-ticket is valid in this bus. According to the Keukenhof official website, Amsterdam and Region Travel ticket is valid too.
We will be 4 adults staying at Zandfoort ann see. The first 2 days we will be going to museums in Amsterdam then 3rd day to Keukenhof. Is it better, for time and economy, for us to buy Amsterdam and region tickets for 3 days and pay for the entrance to Keukenhof, or to take 2 days travel ticket then buy a combiticket from Haarlem to visit Keukenhof on 3rd day?.
I want to buy a combi ticket for travel to Keukenhof from the Hoofddrop station. When I go to the ticketbar website I see tickets for “Transfer from Amsterdam”, “Transfer from Schiphol”, “Transfer from Haarlem”, “Transfer from Leiden”, but I don’t see “Transfer from Hoofddrop” listed. If I buy one of the listed combi tickets, for example “Transfer from Schiphol” would I be able to use that ticket to transfer from Hoofddrop instead?
Yes, combi-ticket which costs 25 euro is valid from Schiphol, Haarlem, Leiden, Hoofddorp and back.
Hi!
I saw information on official Keukenhof website that there will be no busses 858 to and from Keukenhof garden on April 13 2019. Can you verify this information?
Thank you so much.
The Dutch version of Keukenhof official website says “Op zaterdag 13 april 2019 rijden er enkele uren geen bussen naar en van Keukenhof vanwege het Bloemencorso” (there won’t be buses to and from Keukenhof for a few hours), which I guess is more close to the truth.
You can check 9292.nl journey planner for up-to-date travel information https://9292.nl/en/journeyadvice/station-schiphol-airport/lisse_keukenhof/departure/
Hi, am traveling to Amsterdam on 16 April and thinking of going to Keukenhof from airport directly. Is there a place in airport to keep my luggage and pick it on the way back.
Yes, there is https://www.schiphol.nl/en/at-schiphol/services/luggage-storage
I’m planning to visit Keukenhof park today. I have already bought the Combiticket via internet. But I have found note that on Saturday 13 April 2019 there will be no buses to and from Keukenhof due to the Bloemencorso or flower float parade.
Please advise how can I reach the park today? I want to see the flower float parade….
Is there a separate queue to board the bus if one needs to purchase the ticket from bus driver?
No. But I can say it only from my own experience. It can probably be organized different in other situations.
Hello we have bought just the entrance ticket of keukenhof garden. Can I buy travel tickets directly from bus drivers? Can I buy direct tickets for any bus like 852,858 etc from drivers? What kind of card do I need to have credit card or regional Amsterdam travel card to pay to the driver? Thanks.
You can buy tickets directly from the driver in any of these buses. You can pay with Visa, Mastercard or Maestro card.
I plan to visit Keukenhof from Schiphol Airport on 22 April , which is Easter Monday
Will this day be very crowded and traffic jam along the way ?
Thank you
It will probably be crowded but not more than on any other weekend during the peak season (end of April – May).
Hello
I am coming from Schiphol to garden and after would like to go directly to Harleem. Can I buy combined ticket from the airport to the garden and still use it to go Harleem in stead of to the airport?
Yes, no problem, a 25 euros combi ticket is valid for this trip.
Hi. Regarding payment by card directly to the driver: can we pay by debit card or only credit card? Thanks
Both debit and credit cards are OK.
Hi is it possible to buy a combo ticket traveling from schipol to keukenhof and then afterwards to leiden?
Yes, a standard € 25 ticket is valid on this route.
Hi, it is possible to buy a combo ticket € 25 and travel from Schipol to Keukenhof + return from Keyeknhof to
Hoofddorp? Can you send link to schedule
this Friday afternoon (from Schiphol tu Keukenhof. And from Keykenhof to Hoofddorp). Thank you.
Yes, it’s possible. You can check the schedules here: https://holland-explorer.com/keukenhof-express
Hello. Do the express buses run on King’s Day? Thank you
Yes, they do.
I see you are writing that bus line 50 (station Haarlem – Keukenhof) can also be used if you have the Amsterdam & Region Travel Ticket. Are you sure about this? I am asking, because bus line 50 is not shown on the map that can be downloaded from https://reisproducten.gvb.nl/en/toeristen/amsterdam-and-region-travel-ticket.
We are a group planning a trip in April this year, and a day trip Amsterdam-Haarlem-Keukenhof-Amsterdam would be nice.
Hi Mette, that’s a good question. Our information is based on 2019 experience. Then the bus line 50 was also not on the map. But on the Keukenhof official site it was written that Amsterdam & Region Travel Ticket is valid in this bus, and it really was.
So far there’s no official information on this regard on the Keukenhof website. We expect it to be the same as last year, but, as an independent party, we cannot guarantee it. We’ll publish an update if something changes.
Before you answered, I also sent a private message asking the same question to the Facebook page of Arriva. The answer I got was the following:
Hello Mette,
This ticket is not valid on line 50 to Lisse. This is outside the Amsterdam region in another province.
Kind regards, Wouter
So maybe the ticket is not valid officially, but it is valid inofficially? (Or it was so, last year) … (I don’t think I would trust inofficial info from last year, though).
Thank you for your input.
I wouldn’t completely trust Arriva social media guy either, especially if he says “This is outside the Amsterdam region in another province”. (Then why is it valid in the bus lines 858, 854, etc?).
The most reliable source to will be the Keukenhof official website. It still has a limited amount of pages, but detailed travel instructions should follow soon.
Hi Mette,
Here is a 2020 update from the Keukenhof official website:
Amsterdam Region Travel Ticket and Holland Travel Ticket
The Amsterdam Region Travel Tickets (ARTT) and Holland Travel Tickets (HTT) are valid on all Keukenhof Express bus lines (including regional bus line 50 Haarlem). The Amsterdam Travel Ticket (ATT) is not valid on these bus lines.
And now you it’s also on the official Amsterdam & Region Travel Ticket map:
Hello,
Thank you for your input. I’m most interested in the tulip festival card, and need more information about the 1,2,3 day option. I will be flying into Schipol on the 10th in April at 15:00 and directly going to Keukenhof, then returning to Amsterdam. If I pick up my ticket at 13:00, how long is it valid for if I pick the 1,2,3 day option? I also plan to come back on Friday to rent a bicycle around the tulip farms. I assume the flower card will include transportation but not another entry to Keukenhof? Is the flower card with it If I don’t end up going to the museums or using the 15% discount? At what point is it better to stick with the Combi deal?
Hi Linda,
The ticket is valid from the moment you first check in until 04.00 after the last day of validity.
It includes one time entry in Keukenhof. Travel in the area (train, metro, tram and bus operated by GVB, Connexxion and EBS) is unlimited. So if you plan to travel a lot, this option is more attractive than the combi-ticket.
I didn’t understand the question regarding the flower card. What do you mean?
We already purchased skip the line tickets to the Keukenhof tulip garden park. Can we purchase just round-trip bus tickets?
Hi Marian, yes, this should be possible.
According to the Keukenhof official website, you can buy:
Day Ticket. There are Day Tickets for sale for all Keukenhof Express buses for €11.50 (except Bus 852: €16). These Day Tickets are €7.50 for children aged 4 – 11. These Day Ticket(s) or dagkaart(en) are only available from the OV [public transport] ticket shop.
Bus tickets .You can also purchase a ticket from the bus driver on Bus 300, 341, 397, 50 and 90. The price depends on the distance you travel. Keep in mind that travelling with an OV-chipkaart or a Combiticket is much cheaper. You cannot pay for tickets in cash on the buses.
thanks for the helpful post. after many years i’m (fingers crossed) headed to keukenhof in a couple of weeks on a long layover at ams. my plan as of now since i arrive at schipol in the morning is to take bus 858 to keukenhof, spend 3-5 hours there, then take busses back to my accommodation, near bennebroek on bus 50. likely take 50 and 300 back to schipol the next morning. Am I correct in thinking it makes sense to just buy tickets for each journey on the bus as I board by card? is there any disadvantage to just buying a ticket for 858 by card when i board (eg are those with combined keukenhof tickets put at the front of the line which means I would be lowest priority to board)? thanks again
Hi sam kim!
It is possible to buy a ticket from the driver at the buses 50 and 300. But it’s not possible to buy it at 858 (also not in 852 and 854).
The good this is that a combi ticket from Schiphol can also be used for return trip to other locations (Haarlem, Leiden). So if I was you, I would use a combi-ticket on the first day, and then just buy single tickets from the driver next morning.
The system with timeslots for buses is new, it was only introduced this year. So I cannot say for sure how they will organize the boarding. But personally I don’t expect multiple lines. Just – again – to board in Schiphol, you need to have a ticket before entering the bus.
Good luck and fingers crossed!
i have the 3 day region ticket which I know I can use from Schipol to Keukenhof. Do I need to book a space on a bus (the 858) or is it just a queue
Hi Clare, with the Amsterdam & region travel ticket you don’t need a reservation on the bus 858. It’s just a queue. Have a nice trip!
Hello, I have already purchased tickets to visit Keukenhof on April 25th. These are entry tickets only (not combi tickets). I am staying in Haarlem and would like to travel to the gardens by bus 850/50. Is it possible to buy tickets online for the bus only or is it possible to purchase from the driver or bus station?
Thanks
Hello Paul, the bus only tickets will be available online in the coming days. A return ticket from Haarlem costs € 12.
Hi, I’m travelling through AMS on 15 May. I see the tickets close on 14 May. Any chance for me still seeing some flowers if I take a bus that side? Even if I can’t enter the gardens?
Hi! Yes, Keukenhof is open till 14 May, and most of the flowers in the fields are already being cut. So there is a small chance you will see some flowers, but I’m afraid there won’t be that much.
