✈ Getting from Aarhus Airport to Aalborg

If you plan to explore the beautiful ancient city of Aalborg, which combines elements from the 1600s with the vibrancy of modern urban art, start with a convenient transfer from Aarhus Airport. Located at a road distance of approximately 129 km north of Aalborg, travellers have two primary options to cover this route: a taxi or a combined bus trip.

The most convenient way to get from Aarhus Airport to Aalborg is by using an airport taxi or private transfer. The journey takes around 1 hour and 40 minutes, depending on traffic conditions, and a local taxi should cost approximately €140 (DKK 1,044).

On the other hand, taking public transportation will take closer to 2 hours 20 minutes, excluding waiting times – as it’s not a direct trip and you will have to reach the Aarhus city centre first, and then transfer to another bus. The trip via public transport will cost a total of €21.40 (DKK 160) per person.
