The easiest way to get from Paris to Heeze is to take the Thalys TGV. If you book two months in advance, you can get a ticket for NLG 140 (the normal price is about the double). There is no way you can get a cheaper ticket, not by travelling overnight and not by taking conventional trains.
Starting at 24 May, the German and Dutch railways offer a super retour ticket. It's a retour from any Dutch to any German city, valid for a month. It costs NLG 309 for the first person, but only NLG 155 for a second, a third, up to a fifth person. If you come from afar (say Berlin or Dresden, but probably even closer distances), this really saves you a lot of money. Try to travel in groups! This reduction even beats Sparpreis.
If you come by plane, you will land in Schiphol airport (near Amsterdam). Go to the railway station of Schiphol airport and buy a single ticket to Heeze. When the con is over and you go back to Schiphol, buy another single trip. A Dutch retour (round trip) is only valid for one day. The price of a single trip Schiphol-Heeze is NLG 34,50.
Starting at 24 May, the Danish, Dutch and German railways offer a super retour ticket. This is a retour from any Danish city to any Dutch city. It is valid for a month. It costs NLG 389 for the first person, but only NLG 195 for a second, a third, up to a fifth person. You also may profit from this reduction if you come from other Scandinavian countries. Try to travel in groups.
The trips above include a trip through the Eurotunnel with the TGV. You also can take a route via Harwich - Hoek van Holland by Stena Line. If you are younger then 26 years, this makes no difference in price, in which case you can better take the faster connection through the tunnel. Both tickets cost NLG 198. If you are 26 years or older, the Eurotunnel trip costs NLG 440,-, the Stena Line trip costs NLG 260 for the complete round-trip from London to Heeze. Always book the Eurotunnel train two months in advance, because otherwise they may run out of cheap tickets.
