    I highly recommend getting your motorcycle license with Stephen Bevan. Both his teaching and practical skills are truly next-level. You can also get your car license with him! A definite 10/10 recommendation!

    Great driving school! The chain structure is a big advantage, making it quick and easy to get appointments. Especially great for the mandatory theory lessons. The instructors I met were all enthusiastic and passionate about their work. Highly recommended. Thank you so much for your help with my motorcycle license!

    ★★★★★ Motorcycle License A – Highly Recommended! 🏍️ Getting my license with Kessler was the right decision and an awesome experience – the bike-to-bike training was incredibly helpful! A huge shout-out to Micha! 👌 With his excellent work, lots of patience, and a good dose of humor, he explained even tricky situations to me in a relaxed and understandable way – sometimes two or three times until I got it. And if something didn't work out right away, Micha was there to help – usually with a lighthearted joke and then the perfect solution (keyword: falling over 😅✌🏻). The lessons were a lot of fun, and you can tell that Micha doesn't just want you to pass the test, but that you can actually ride a motorcycle safely afterward. A clear recommendation for anyone who wants to get their motorcycle license! 🏍️💨

Driving school in Wanne-Eickel

Since 2024 Fahrschule Kessler has had a branch in Wanne-Eickel. It's at Hermannstraße 3, 44649 Herne – Wanne-Eickel is a district of Herne, and there's a second Herne branch on Sodinger Straße. If you live in Wanne-Eickel, you have a contact for advice and sign-up in your own district.

The family business has existed since 1973 and is now run by the third generation. Across all our branches we help more than 1,000 learner drivers a year get their licence.

Opening hours on Hermannstraße

In Wanne-Eickel the branch is open Monday to Friday from 15:00 to 18:00. So it's best to plan your visit for the afternoon – we close here at 18:00. Dropping in without an appointment is no problem; if you'd like detailed advice, arrange a free consultation in Wanne-Eickel. We'll then show you what your training looks like step by step.

A fixed contact in Wanne-Eickel

From the moment you sign up in Wanne-Eickel, you have a personal training consultant. You get the contact details, so you always know who to reach with questions – whether it's about your next driving lesson or missing documents. That way you don't have to explain your situation again every time. The bosses are regularly on site and available to talk to you too. Our app shows you how far you've come and which payments are still open.

Classes from B to D

You learn to drive a car in class B, on your own from 18 or with accompanied driving from 17. If you want to tow a trailer, you'll also need class BE (also from 18). Motorcycles come in three stages: A1 at 16, A2 at 18 and A at 24, or as early as 20 after two years of A2. For trucks (C/CE) the minimum age is 21, for buses (D) 24 – with professional driver training 18 and 21. In both cases you must hold class B and bring a medical certificate.

Getting started in three steps

First: take an eye test and attend a first-aid course – that applies to every class. Second: sign up, on Hermannstraße or online. We take care of handing in your papers at the road traffic office. Third: start theory. Lessons take place Monday to Friday at all branches; you'll find the topics in the theory schedule. We then record proof of your theory lessons digitally with TÜV Nord – you don't need to worry about it.

Nobody prescribes a fixed number of driving lessons. The special drives are mandatory: for class B, five rural road drives, four motorway drives and three night drives – twelve of 45 minutes each in total. How many practice lessons you additionally need depends on your prior knowledge, your talent and how regularly you practise. Experience shows that most learner drivers need around 20 to 30 additional driving lessons – some need fewer, others considerably more.
