Amsterdam Booze Cruise?

edited January 2023 in General Chat
I'm 21 in October, and my Dad reckon he saw some amazing deal in the local newspaper where you can get a ferry to Amsterdam, have a day in Amsterdam and then ferry back. Setting off and retunring to Hull, he reckons.

When I look at the paper, I can't find it....

But anyway - I really fancy this kind of idea for my 21st but I'm not finding the internet all too helpful. Has anyone got any ideas, or has done it before?

Cheers!

    done one from newcastle to amsterdam. was £40 when i went, leave newcastle late afternoon, cruise over night (get pissed), sleep, wake up and go to amsterdam about 8 in morning then you have to be back at the boat for about 5pm, cruise over night again.

    was worth it, didnt really get enough time in the dam tho. time for a few jars, a smoke, check out some hookers, jack off etc..

    we had the all you can eat buffet on board, was very very good! loads of different stuff. love the posh stuff.

    beers weren't too bad, bout £2 a pint i think it was. you can pay in euros and pounds. for some reason i remember it being the same price in euros as in pounds. like if something was £2 it was €2. i might just have been pissed tho.

    Yeah, two euros is about £1.30 or something like that... definitely cheaper anyway!

    I've done a long weekend from here to the 'Dam, lots of fun and loads of monged fruitcakes on the ferry which is right up my street (and yours too, probably) :thumb:
