1. How many ways are there from London to Amsterdam
(阿姆斯特丹)
2. What are they
There are four ways.
They are by train, by car and by ship, by coach, by plane.
◆Question: What is the best way to travel from London to Amsterdam
I am planning to travel from London to Amsterdam. How long does the journey take and what is the best way to travel Could you please tell me about trains or ships to get there The more information, the better. Thanks!
★Best answer: There are four ways to travel.
A journey by train is more relaxing than by coach, but a lot more expensive. When you go by train, buy your ticket a long time before you travel. It is usually cheaper.
You can go by car and by ship across the North Sea. This is the most comfortable way to travel but also the most expensive. Book your ticket before you book your hotel. Remember that parking in Amsterdam is very expensive, so stay outside the city centre and travel in by bus or by train.
The third choice is by coach. This is usually the cheapest, but in summer the coaches sometimes get crowded! And it takes you about twelve hours to get there. However, it will not cost as much as going by train.
Finally, you can fly. It is the fastest and the second cheapest, but you may have to wait for hours at the airport because of bad weather.
Well, I hope this helps! Have a great trip!
