Amsterdam King's Day

It was nice to have the freedom to be able to see and do what we wanted, vs always having something planned. I enjoyed all the free time. The only thing I didn't like was how early we got dropped in Amsterdam on King's day; we were in the city by around 10, and nothing really happens till the afternoon. I liked that you have the option to arrive and leave from Amsterdam, vs having to arrive and leave from London.

Jennifer helped me so much with this purchased and provided me all the options for routes to take, making it a smooth process.

Kingsday was awesome! Such a fun time and Amsterdam is a beautiful place! Bring a jacket and possible umbrella as the weather changes quickly. Enjoy!

Expensive for what it was woth

Great value - under £300 for transport and accommodation on one of the busiest weekends of the year!

You definitely got your money’s worth

Amsterdam is a GORGEOUS place to go and what an amazing experience. Truly recommend others to go and have a fantastic time!

I had so much fun on this trip! Brando and João made the trip so fun! I wasn’t expecting to have such an awesome time!

This trip is a blast, I plan to go again next year. Based on my experience on this trip I have also booked another trip this year with Contiki.

Great party, never experienced anything like it. Such a awesome city

Amazing trip! Amazing people!

I had a great time. An absolote blast. We where made believe that out hotel was right in the middle of it when really it was quite far away from the action. I meet the tour group in amsterdam....which is my biggest regret. When everyone arrived we didn't get integrated to the group. We actually got separated and isolated from everyone. We didn't get introduced or anything so I never actually meet half my group because they had no idea who I was. The others that meet the group there felt the same. Like an us and them kind of feeling. Everything was really early...after a night of partying 8am starts were ridiculous and on kings day the coach into the city left so early there wasn't a hole lot going on when we got there. The pub crawl was probably the best part contiki organised. I feel like I paid for a very expensive subpar hotel because i didnt get a whole lot from contiki itself. On kings day itself we just got dumped in the city and left to ourselves i feel contiki need to be more involved on actually kings day. the clog and cheese factory was very short and again very early in the day after kings day. Everything seemed very rushed and we didn't get to do our canal cruise because the bus was late and it wasn't rescheduled either. I did have a good time but I feel it would of been better if I actually knew and was introduced to my group and had some friends. The hotel definitly needs to be closer to the city too i spent 100 on taxis mostly because I didn't know anyone else in the group to split it with and it was so far away.a group photo would of been a good suviner too but that didn't happen

Good and friendly staff!!

Hotel had bed bugs, card for hotel room was reset daily so also had to continually return to reception.

First solo travel group trip. It was everything a girl could ask for. Not gonna lie journey traffic made the journey to Amsterdam a little longer than scheduled, but I signed up for a coach trip and traffic is part and parcel of it. The coach was super comfy, with decent leg room. Amsterdam itself was amazing. Plenty of free time to explore and the ME time options were great (a live show and a traditional meal). Kings day was surreal, we ended up in a street party, and orange is one of my favourite colours. I would highly recommend this, I've made some great friends and some hazy memories. Going as part of a group definitely trumps lone wolfing it.

Excellent trip manger and bus driver I would go on another trip with them again
