Newcastle Amsterdam Ferry reviews

  • "Europe Bound"

    Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It was like taking a short day cruise. From when we arrived to when we departed we were treated well. We had the buffet package and the meal was wonderful. We also took the upgrade commodore and the room was very comfortable. Enjoyedlistening to music playing throughout the decks.

  • "Excellent"

    We use the Ferry at least 2 times a year and usually have a good experience. This time was no different, apart from next door having a small child (obviously teething) crying off and on most of the night. Otherwise out trip was good.

  • "Nearly there"

    I was pleasantly surprised and very impressed with the standard of entertainment, cleanliness and, particularly, the catering. My only minor grumble is the lack of 'technology' in the cabin, notably wi-fi or television although I know these can be difficult to provide while at sea there appeared to be no hotspot anywhere on-board despite the (locked) "wi-fi lounge". A very small negative on a very positive overall experience. I would be delighted to sail with DFDS again and happily recommend them to others.

  • "Great Route For Caravans"

    As we live local to North Shields, this is a great route to get us, our car and caravan to Europe. The ships are always clean and facilities excellent. We are even happy with the inside cabins as, to us, they feel more spacious than the outside cabins. on our most recent return we were given a 4 berth cabin on Deck 11 instead of the 2 berth. We have used both King and Princess several times and will continue to do so.

Located in the northeast of England, Newcastle is well known for its historical ties with coal mining and as an important centre for the wool trade. Dating back to the 16th century, Newcastle's port and shipyards were once one of the largest centres of shipbuilding and repair in the world.
