Join us on our mini-cruise from Newcastle to Amsterdam and back. We boarded the DFDS cruise for 2 nights and explore the food, drink and entertainment options of board. We give a tour of the ship and our cabin, alongside our thoughts on value for money. We also explore Amsterdam - this includes visiting the Christmas markets, eating Stroop waffles, trying some vegan food and souvenir shopping .

Did this “poor man’s cruise” (!) only this week. I was on that boat too and I couldn’t fault it for the price. Great video. Thanks tor sharing!

Glad to hear you had a good time! Yeah we would agree that the price is definitely not bad considering what you get. Hope you managed to squeeze in some cool activities in Amsterdam - you probably had slightly better weather than us at least! Thanks for watching 😊

Amsterdam looks beautiful, even though it was raining! I'm always worried about travelling since I'm a vegetarian and food can sometimes be an issue. The vegan restaurant looked incredible - so happy to know I can add Amsterdam to my list of places to visit!

Glad you enjoyed Amsterdam, next time rest your stroopwaffel over a hot cup of coffee for a few moments to melt the caramel a little..

It's a ferry

@adamnoble3546 Жыл бұрын

You can't go wrong with £50 , absolute bargain and what's more it looks really good

@abbieandglenn Жыл бұрын

Absolutely. There's lots to do onboard the ferry and definitely a crossing we could see ourselves doing multiple times to explore more of Amsterdam. We have actually seen the trip offered at an even lower price on Groupon recently so might be worth checking out if you are interested in going!

@@abbieandglenn Thank you so much. I will check it out as it's a trip we have had on the back burner for a while.

That's called a Ferry

@abbieandglenn Жыл бұрын

Hi Dan, thanks for commenting! This is marketed as a mini-cruise on the DFDS website and, therefore, this is the terminology we chose to use.

Hi. Were you able to leave your luggages at tha cabin while you were in amsterdam? ☺️

@abbieandglenn Жыл бұрын

Hey! Yes you can leave whatever you like in the cabin as you get the same one on the way back ☺️

Booked for November, could you please tell me information on parking and leaving our car at the port in Newcastle untill we return? Sail Friday and return Sunday morning, excellent video thanks

@abbieandglenn 10 ай бұрын

Hi Chris! We found parking at the port very straightforward as everything is really well signposted on arrival. We parked in the Port of Tyne car park and it was only about a 1 minute walk over to the ferry. Parking is free for the first 4 hours and £12 per day afterwards. The car park seemed very secure and we felt safe leaving the car there. Once you return on Sunday morning, there is a booth at the terminal to pay before you leave (it is not possible to pay in advance). Here is the parking example from the Port of Tyne website which is the same as what we did: DFDS Amsterdam Mini Cruise Example: Day 1 - Arrive in car park at 3pm Day 2 - In Amsterdam Day 3 - Leave car park at 11 am Parking cost £24 (44 hours) Hope that is helpful! Have a great trip :)

Thank you for letting us know! Just had a look online and that's definitely a trip we would like to do at some point as we would love to see Rotterdam

@Ianphillips926 Жыл бұрын

Absolute bargain. Well worth a few nights and a day to visit Amsterdam.

@abbieandglenn Жыл бұрын

Yes we had a wonderful time on this trip and thought it was well worth the money. It gave us a nice taster of Amsterdam as a city but we would definitely like to visit for longer next time! Thanks for watching
