RE: [SteemFest F.A.Q.] How to get from Schiphol Airport to the Volkshotel

in #steemfest8 years ago

There is also a very nice bicycle path all that way as well, though I'm not sure about bicycle hire options, I have traveled to and from Schiphol many times chasing up my passport due to not having address registration there. I believe there is bicycles, though I would not advise doing it first time without a GPS. It takes a little over an hour to get into the centre of town.

Mind you, it isn't so nice to ride a bicycle at that time, and it is fairly likely to be raining. But still... I just thought I should mention this option. I rode a bicycle through Amsterdam often 10-20km/day all through winter two years ago... you just need to have good gloves, thermals, nice thick jumper and good boots and scarf and beanie. Some sunglasses or goggles can be good if you like to go fast!

Sort:  

Bicycle itis, although I'll most likely arrive to Amsterdam on a train or a bus.

A bicycle would be nice @l0k1 as I'm sure it will be a nice scenic view but it's Nov so cold and potentially rainy so maybe not the best option! Looking forward to seeing you there man, heard you're gonna make it!

Yeah, next time should be July. Yes, I am almost through Serbia and if I can raise 43 more euros, I will be there well ahead of schedule. I am meeting a steemian from Novi Sad this evening, and I can tell so many stories from being stranded in Budapest for a month last year, I am sure I can pull it off!

You'll make it and it will be a hell of a story!
