Train from Dam to Pareee.

Post by dubsy420 »

Was wondering if anyone has taken the direct train from Amsterdam to Paris? If so, how they got on, how is security/checks when entering, etc? In other words, is it easy to take some Tulips with you on the trip? :idea: :mrgreen:

France is concerned about explosives, but does do random checking... and the only way you are going to get caught is if you happen to be the random "check." And don't look like some stoned slob...

For Trains/Busses to France & Germany, especially those originating in the Netherlands, expect a relatively high probability of random checks by law enforcement, often including drug dogs (yes drug-sniffing, not explosive sniffing).

I wouldn't chance it.

Yes, I won't be doing this. Was a nice thought, though. :idea: :mrgreen:

I'll still be looking to go next July for my birthday, probably just be Dam instead of more travelling.

Thanks for the comments on this everyone.
