London to AmsterdamMeet up with your Contiki team this morning before we make our way through the countryside to Dover & ferry across the English Channel. We’ll then head across Belgium before hitting the cool & relaxed city of Amsterdam, where the fun really starts. These canal lined streets are buzzing with little cafés, restaurants & filled with cyclists weaving their way along the cobbles. Enjoy an included dinner before heading out to explore Amsterdam by night. Known for its colourful Red Light District, you’ll take a walking tour of these famous streets to see what it’s all about, while learning about Amsterdam’s history. Later, why not keep it moving with a fun night out. Tonight, we’ll give you the option to see the city from a different angle on a canal cruise. There are heaps of pumping clubs & pubs so ask your Tour Manager for some tips on where to head.
AmsterdamTake it easy today, with a free day to explore more of the city sights in your own time. As Amsterdam is quite compact, it’s perfect for exploring on two wheels. Go local & maybe hire a bike with some friends & make your way through Vondel Park, or simply weave your way through the city’s quaint streets. Later, you could try some Dutch beer at a cute little café or restaurant.
