By train
Tilburg is connected to the rest of the country by a twice an hour Intercity service, bound to both Eindhoven - Venlo and Breda - Rotterdam - The Hague.
A second intercity goes twice an hour from Flushing-Middelburg-Bergen op Zoom-Breda to Tilburg and goes furthers-Hertogenbosch-Nijmegen-Arnhem-Zwolle. Trains in the Netherlands usually drive from 5.30/6.00 AM up to 12AM.
Intercity trains will drive in the night on Friday and Saturday nights from and to Eindhoven's-Hertogenbosch and Breda/Rotterdam/The Hague from 12AM to 4AM.
By car
Tilburg is connected by highway only from Breda (with Belgium, Rotterdam-The Hague) and Eindhoven (Limburg, Ardennes, and Rhine-Ruhr). To Waalwijk, it goes partially on a highway, and that is also for the city of’s-Hertogenbosch (!), which is not recommended for travelling fast and safe. From Turnout it is the small road via Ravels, Poppel and Goirle.
By bus
An exception for the buses from Waalwijk, the Efteling, Oosterhout and Turnhout, buses are useless. Tilburg is the largest Dutch city without Eurolines connection! This makes the trains to Breda and Eindhoven useful to go to another destination of Eurolines.
*Efteling with 169 or 137
*Oosterhout with 127
*Turnhout with 450 (De Lijn)
*Waalwijk with 137
By boat
No timescheduled ferries come along the Wilhelminakanaal, but if you've got your private owned boat, you can reach it from Eindhoven and the Meuse on the Wilhelminakanaal
