Here you will find all operators and timetables for a Bus from Geneva to Cologne

What are the most popular stations in Geneva and Cologne?

In Geneva, you will usually depart from Jonction, Gare Cornavin or Bus Station, while in Cologne you will be arriving at Central Station, Central Bus Station or Messe/Deutz Train Station, but there are many more stops to explore in both locations.

How do I decide? Some tips and tricks from our experience

Are you having trouble deciding on how to get to Cologne from Geneva? With 5 connections between 1 Bus and Flight operators, it can be difficult to find the one ride that will make you happy. But we have some tips that can help you make the best informed decision. First of all, the best trip is always the one that meets all your needs, so make a list of all the things that you want from this journey and look for something that will satisfy all of them. Here we will go through some of the factors mostly commonly taken into consideration.

Look for the lowest price

Ticket price is usually the main concern: even if you can afford to pay more, why do it if there are cheaper options? Saving on the trip means that you can spend more on the vacation itself! Between Geneva and Cologne, you can pay as low as $38 with a Bus from FlixBus.

Travel duration

Time is also an important factor. An earlier departure may allow you to see a beautiful sunset or relax before an important event. And remember, time is money, so paying more for a shorter trip may be well worth it.
