After a 6 month stint in dam, and coming home for a month, I am having SERIOUS withdrawl symptoms
Desperate to get back over but ££££ are sooooo tight at the moment.
With flights, hotel and spending money I normally spend close to £1k for a 3-4 day trip all in all.
I just cant spend anywhere near that amount of money, so im wondering if anyone has some tips on the cheapest possible weekend in dam from London?
Cheers

You could try a coach to Amsterdam instead of flying:

And maybe stay in a hostel or camping/cabin at Zeeburg. Havent done this myself but theres loads of info around the forum on it.

can you go out in a car if there's a few of you, driving is alot cheaper and quicker plus you can pop into breda or tilberg first on your way up. if there's 2 of you zeeburg cabin cant be beat and they couldn't care one bit about smoking there. think there better than the cheap crap dirty hotels ive stayed in only drawback its about 15 minutes on tram to flavorpark, then a walk for 10 minutes to campsite. takes twice as long when your hammered at night but its so cheap. even better if you dont mind carting a tent sleeping bag and other shit i would camp and as ysmugu says eurolines you wont find cheaper out there but it takes forever and i wouldn't go that way again.this might help out a little ..
