Creator's Key Takeaways

Pro tip if your cruise ship gets in early uh jump on the train and come out as soon as you can before all the tour buses arrive

we got here about 8:00 um we were bang on time but we probably could have been about half an hour early it gets really really mental

we didn't get run over by any bikes we're heading back to the ship because it's been another long day of walking but I'm glad we got to see the windmills that was definitely a highlight

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

In August 2024 we took a cruise from Southampton in the UK to Reykjavik in Iceland. Amsterdam was the second port on our cruise. Join us as we navigate the local transport system to visit the beautiful town of Zaanse Schans and take a walk around Amsterdam central winding through the many canals and visiting the floating flower market.
