To buy tickets for the train, you can use the ticket vending
machines in the arrival hall.

Visa credit cards.
You can also buy tickets at the ticket booths (indicated by
the red arrows above). They will also accept credit cards,
but only with a build-in chip in combination with a PIN
code. If you like to purchase tickets through the vending

Price of a single ticket to Maastricht is: €27.50 (second
class) or €46.80 (first class).
Travel time: 2 hours 35 minutes.
Suggestion: if you travel with a lot of luggage or you have
to take a train before 9:30 AM (rush hour), I suggest
taking a first class ticket. Less crowded and more space.

32 minutes later, you will arrive at Platform 14 in Utrecht Central station.
Now cross the platform to the other side (which is Platform 15) and hop on the
train which is already waiting there. The train at platform 15 consists of 2
sections. Be sure you get on the front section of the train, otherwise you may
not end up in Maastricht. If you happen to enter the second part of the train,
you can still go to the front part at your next intermediate stop (e.g.
's-Hertogenbosch, Eindhoven....). If you do not, you will end up in Heerlen,
another city in Limburg.
No time to explore the railway station, your train to Maastricht leaves 6
minutes after your arrival in Utrecht!
