I did the same on Amsterdam - Berlin and vice versa. Internet (4G) is terrible in rural areas of Germany though but if you prepare for thst its no problem. You can also take a night bus. Amsterdam - London should be open now too though not as useful with Brexit (I previously took a night bus on that trajectory).
- gpvos 6y agoThe night train? If I remember correctly, when it still ran it stopped in Berlin around 4:30 AM; not a fun time to get up. I did use it to go to Dresden though; got out at 7, had breakfast, then a train to Leipzig. Excellent way to travel. Although since you mention using the Internet and also the Eurostar, you probably meant the day train, which is fine but the 6 hours to Berlin take a chunk out of your day. (I once took the one at 5 AM, but that turned out to be too early for me and I can't sleep in a chair.)
- Fnoord 6y agoRight, it was more like an early morning train but practically everyone slept. Not the best rest of my life, agreed, but it was terrific (we went on babymoon to Berlin).
- koyote 6y agoBest way between London and Amsterdam is the ferry! It's not quite as seamless as a direct train but still very enjoyable: You take a train in the evening from London to the ferry terminal in Harwich, then overnight ferry in a private cabin (it's a big ferry with restaurant and bar etc.) to a port in southern Holland. Then a train from there to Amsterdam. The train tickets are part of the ferry price (rail and sail) and you get into Amsterdam nice and early.
