How do I get to Cologne?
To get to Cologne you can take the train, the bus. Indeed, there are 8 trains, 2 buses arriving in Cologne every day.
The problem with ticket prices is that they change all the time. But it's also hard to find a reliable site that offers you a complete range of products and services, available 7 days a week.
The train is the most comfortable way to get to Cologne. You'll be able to sit in your seat much faster than on a plane, and you'll be able to get up during the journey, whether to go to the car bar or the toilet. Beware, however, of strikes (rare) and delays. It's also the most ecological means of transport. By the time you close your eyes, you'll be in Cologne.
The bus, like carpooling, often has the advantage of being the cheapest way to travel. In addition to that, even if the trips for Cologne can be longer or of the same duration as by car, today's buses are equipped with comfortable seats and often benefit from a free wifi connection. On the other hand if you like to chat and meet people, carpooling with blablacar will be the perfect option.
