Despite its size as a metropolis, Düsseldorf is surprisingly compact and is affectionately known as the '10-minute city' because many attractions are easily accessible on foot. For longer distances, efficient tram connections are available. Bicycle rentals also offer the opportunity to explore the charming surroundings. Furthermore, the Düsseldorf Card allows you to snag public transportation, museums, and city tours at discounted prices.

Düsseldorf Airport is often the preferred choice for travelers from the Ruhr area due to its proximity to the cities in this region. As the largest airport in North Rhine-Westphalia, it offers extensive flight connections, making it an ideal choice for visitors traveling to the UEFA EURO 2024.
