sorted byWe've taken out two little ones a few times and all of us had a great time. It is what it is – if you can afford 14 nights in the Caribbean, good for you!
Safe to say, once and never again.

so know one mentioned the 1hr 20min bus transfer as it’s not on this deal..
as for what my wife wears to myself being clever it has no relevance. She leaves all the trips to myself, but still knows where she’s going although I book it.
Go in October and treat the crossing as part of the experience, the North Sea can be a cruel place to be in December!

My post was merely to point out that there are alternative and quicker routes, which may be of interest to others.
Both my wife and I prefer to spend more time on land than at sea, if you get my drift (sorry, couldn't resist). (edited)
they are good value if you know what to expect from them. But get you point of staying over definitely not long enough in Amsterdam the red light doesn't come alive till after dark.
But it only cost £115/130 return to fly from local airport, much better doing that and having extra time there.. (edited)

Thanks.
basically this gets you there the same as flying, once your there it’s up to the person what they do. As a teenager the red light and drugs were the best part of Amsterdam..
Mainly couples, pensioners and lorry drivers when I've used it midweek.
There’s Princess and King they both alternate on different days
But I agree the boat is part of the experience, well is the trip really. Cheap hotel for 2 night drinking with your mates. If people want to experience Amsterdam go for a few nights over there..
