Back in February I won a mini-cruise to Amsterdam in a competition. Personally, this is not the sort of holiday I would have chosen for myself - firstly you only get one day in the city itself and I would have preferred to have had a longer stay, and secondly, I'm sure most of us have seen Titanic, and we all know how that ended! ~About the trip we booked~ There are several different trips that you can book with DFDS, but due to this being a prize, we were not given a choice in this.

We didn't expect much and couldn't really find out much information online apart from images of the rooms. As the free promotion we were in a seaways class cabin with no window but thankfully upper decks (above the sea). We left on a Sunday night due to leave at 11pm boarding from 8.30.
