London To Amsterdam By Flixbus And Night Ferry Was It Worth The £39????

I decided to make a last minute trip to Amsterdam using the Flixbus overnight service from London Victoria coach station to Amsterdam Sloterdijk in the Netherlands.
Journey time was approximately 11 hours and tickets cost me £33 each way, although these prices do seem to go up and down quite a lot depending on demand. Overall it was a pretty chilled journey and for the price it was well worth it.
Thanks for watching

Nice vid mate. For the record those Sony headphones, very decent quality. On Amazon they currently cost 200 quid - on "duty free" they cost a full 51 quid more.
Back in the day duty free actually meant something, now it usually means big rip off.

I agree with you fully, thanks for watching 👌🏾

Scanning the passport is for ferry company as they need a passenger list, a legal requirement.
I travelled with Flix recently from London to Aachen in Germany. Yes, there were two delays going to Germany and one on the way back but all three were beyond the control of Flix.
I had booked two seats for myself so I could stretch out and have some sleep. The price for the second seat was, btw, less than half price.
I would certainly do that trip again and can recommend Flixbus

Doing this from Cologne to London next month. 17 hours 😅 Really hope I dont regret it😂

That 18mins+ was good, I like the way you put that together, the munch looked good, I wonder how much the food would have cost to purchase and the duty free, are you sure, sum of them prices looked like a standard 10% - I used to have an Irish girlfriend and would take the coach from London to Holyhead to Ireland - 8am arrival 9pm I didn't sleep either and sum times the destination or just going sum where keeps us pumping, that guy had on Diadoras, have not seen that for minute, nice one for the upload

Done it the other way 4 years ago .Good service .

Really good service, thanks for watching 👌🏾

Now that is cheap well worth it

[@emelio7995]

Since this bus originates from London, so this must be a RIGHT HAND drive unit. And most countries and cities in mainland Europe uses the American standard of LEFT HAND drive. How about this trip?

[@petertee7549]

Will try by night ferry next time, Have always travelled to Amsterdam in day time before

[@Travelwithjake1]

Yeah you should definitely try it, thanks for watching 👌🏾

[@ahmedismail4022]

Only one border check at Dover and that's it ? or there's another border check in France ?

[@SidMir-u3x]

is there wifi on the ferry? Also, how long are you on the ferry before getting back onto the coach?

[@r.gordontrueblood3188]

Yes, I'd say it was worth it.

[@chiranjibbordolai6332]

Nice

[@richardtalbot8769]

When i take a sprinter in the NL i aim for that single seat in 1st class as well. :) - What was the knee room like on the coach. Shame they don't use the tunnel so you could sleep from passport control to sloterdijk

[@Travelwithjake1]

The knee room in first class was actually not too bad at all, thanks for watching 👌🏾

[@SeriaIDesignationC]

I had to take a flix bus from a caravan once to get to the next holiday place and that was due to worker strikes on the trains that we were not a wear of

You mentioned '"What a sound!" Do you mean you like it or was it hateful or too loud?

[@Travelwithjake1]

It was a great sound, thanks for watching 👌🏾

[@p.tut.8682]
