About Netherbus

The Netherlands' Premier Bus Service

Our Story

Founded in 2015, Netherbus has grown to become the Netherlands' leading provider of intercity bus transportation. What started as a small operation with just 5 buses connecting Amsterdam and Rotterdam has expanded into a nationwide network serving all major cities across the country.

Our mission is simple: to provide safe, comfortable, and affordable transportation for everyone. We believe that travel should be accessible to all, and we work tirelessly to maintain the highest standards of service while keeping our prices competitive.

Today, Netherbus operates a modern fleet of over 100 buses, employs more than 250 staff members, and serves millions of passengers annually. We continue to expand our routes and improve our services to meet the evolving needs of travelers throughout the Netherlands.
