DFDS Newcastle

[~Stef~]

Me n the misses have booked a mini cruise from Newcastle on DFDS planning on getting the train down then using DFDS's bus service to get to the boat.
Question is where do we get the bus ? Anyone know ?#
cheers

I would imagine the bus will run from Newcastle Central Station to the ferry terminal, but not having used it I couldn't be sure.

You'll need a bus from Newcastle to Royal quays in North Shields.
If you're stuck give me a shout

this should help

Remortgage your house if you're planning on drinking during your voyage. The DFDS bar prices are extortionate now. I was over in July and was forced to open my "Duty Free" bottle of whisky in a darkened corner of the lounge

Sorry for the slight off topic post but hope it helps

Dedicated bus from Central Station, and then from Ijmuiden ferry terminal to Amsterdam.

As Ronno says it's rip-off time on the boat, get yourself some Greggs for the way out and summat in Amsterdam for the way back.

AND TAKE YOUR OWN BEER!!! It's about 3 quid a pint on the boat.

Aye, buffet meal is £20 each !

Get the bus driver to stop at Lidl on the A1058 (Coast Road), Wallsend and stock-up on cheap food and booze, before the crossing.

For unfriendly help from the natives, wear thisMmm Nopef

And this is poor but may help if you need native advice!https://shop.nufc.co.uk/cgi-bin/live/ecommerce.pl?site=theclubshop_nufc&state=page&page=splash&menu=menu&suppress_header=yes

Why NUFC need a third strip is beyond me, unless the away strip is that awful?

Oh and try this is you get stuck with the lingo

The Central Station is a main station, theres a tourist info in the centre of the place as you leave on your left.

Agree with the comments on the prices of the ferry regarding beer / food. I went 3 years ago to Stravengar and it was still pricey on the ferry.
