Price per driving lesson in Leiden
A single driving lesson at Route 71 driving school costs € 72,- and lasts 60 minutes. A trial lesson costs € 50,-. All prices include 21% VAT and apply to both manual and automatic.
Prefer a bundle? The Advantage 4 bundle costs € 280,- (€ 70,- per lesson) and the Advantage 8 bundle costs € 544,- (€ 68,- per lesson). The difference with single lessons: you pay upfront for 4 or 8 lessons and get a discount per lesson. You never have to buy a large bundle and never pay for the exam in advance.
Start without large lesson bundles
From 16.5 years you can start driving lessons at Route 71.
After an enjoyable trial lesson, you decide how you want to pay: per single lesson or with a small advantage bundle. So with us, you don't have to buy a large lesson bundle right away.
Where many driving schools work with bundles of dozens of lessons, we deliberately keep it clear and accessible.
Small bundles, great flexibility
At Route 71 you pay for the lessons you need step by step, not all at once. You can choose:
- Single driving lessons
- Advantage 4 – roughly one month of lessons ahead
- Advantage 8 – roughly two months of lessons ahead
This setup lets you plan ahead while keeping your spending manageable.
Clear, transparent and no surprises
