We can’t make it any easier, but we can make it more fun!
Learning to drive is quite a challenge. But in a Mini Cooper Countryman, with an instructor who enjoys it?
That makes it a lot more fun. Welcome to Binnenmaas Driving School.
Safety first
We don’t just teach you how to pass the test. We prepare you for all the traffic situations you’ll encounter when you start driving on your own. Safety is our top priority.
Personal guidance
Everyone learns differently and at their own pace. We adapt to that. No one-size-fits-all approach, but driving lessons tailored to you.
Lessons in a modern car
Heated seats in winter, air conditioning in summer, all-round parking sensors and a reversing camera. And yes, the car can park itself. We’ll show you how. Then you can have a go and see if you can do it better.
Getting your driving licence!
That’s obviously a big moment in everyone’s life! After all, once you’ve got your driving licence, you can get behind the wheel and the whole world is your oyster. Having a driving licence gives you unprecedented freedom and independence to drive wherever you want.
However, holding a driving licence also comes with a huge responsibility. Whilst you are, of course, allowed to drive a car or van, you are expected to be familiar with the rules of the road and road signs. After all, you are in control of a vehicle weighing 1,500 kg or more as you navigate your way through traffic.
To prepare yourself as well as possible for the time when you start driving independently, it is important that you take driving lessons where you are taught how to operate a vehicle and navigate traffic safely. You need to be prepared for all possible traffic situations and know how to react in those situations. That is why you should choose a driving school that provides you with the best possible guidance to ensure you can navigate traffic safely in the future.
We can’t make it any easier, but we can make it more fun!
That’s our driving school’s motto. After all, learning to drive is certainly no easy task.
Especially when you’re still young, there’s a lot to take in when learning to drive. Controlling the car, other road users, unexpected situations – these are all things you’ll have to deal with in busy traffic. For some learners, this can be a bit overwhelming at first, but we’ll guide you safely through the whole process!
What makes it more fun? Well, for a start, you’ll be taking lessons in a stylish Mini Cooper Countryman! A modern car equipped with all the amenities to make your drive as comfortable as possible.
And for those final lessons before your driving test, when you have to drive a route on your own, feel free to bring your own music and play it on the excellent sound system.
Of course, we also want to have a good time in the car, so we’ll be bringing plenty of humour along!
Course packages and prices
We offer packages ranging from 10 to 40 driving lessons. From the Value Package onwards, your test is included in the price.
Would you prefer to try a few individual lessons first? That’s certainly an option.
The introductory lesson costs €50, but this will be deducted if you purchase a value pack afterwards.
Not yet 18? You can start from the age of 16.5.
Through the 2toDrive scheme, you can start taking driving lessons as soon as you turn 16 and a half.
Once you’ve passed your test, you can drive with a coach sitting beside you, and from the age of 18 you can drive on your own. Would you like to know how that works?
Why aren’t we the cheapest?
Because you get what you pay for. There are driving schools that advertise low prices and pass guarantees, but they mainly just make you practise the exam routes. Failed? Too bad, better luck next time.
We do things differently. We invest in lessons that really prepare you for the road. Not just for the test, but for everything that comes after. It might cost a little more, but you’ll benefit from it for the rest of your driving life.
FAQ
How much does a driving lesson cost?
A single 75-minute driving lesson costs €87.50. However, you’ll save money with a lesson package. Our packages range from 10 to 40 lessons, and your test is included from 20 lessons onwards. See all prices on our lesson prices page.
How many lessons do I need?
It varies from person to person. Some learners pass after 30 lessons, whilst others need more than 50. After the introductory lesson, we’ll give you an honest estimate. You can read more about this on our page about the number of driving lessons.
What sort of car will I be learning in?
You’ll be learning to drive in a Mini Cooper Countryman. A modern SUV with heated seats, air conditioning, parking sensors, a reversing camera and a large sat-nav screen. Find out more on our driving lessons page.
Can I start even if I’m not yet 18?
Yes, through the 2toDrive scheme, you can start taking driving lessons from the age of 16 and a half. Once you’ve passed your test, you can drive with a coach sitting beside you, and from the age of 18 you can drive independently. Read more about 2toDrive here.
Do I need to have passed my theory test before I start?
No, that’s not necessary. However, it’s a good idea to have already taken a theory course, so that you know the basics of the road rules when you get behind the wheel. You can take a theory course on your phone via the OnMyWay app.
What does the introductory lesson involve?
An introductory lesson lasting around an hour, during which you’ll get to know your instructor and the driving school car. You can ask any questions you may have, and afterwards you’ll receive some no-obligation advice on the number of lessons you’ll need. The introductory lesson costs €50, but this amount will be deducted if you purchase a value package.
Can I also call to make an appointment?
That’s possible, but during the day we’re often in the driving school car. It’s not safe to answer the phone whilst supervising a learner driver. So please send us a WhatsApp message instead, and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
