Harwich - Hook of Holland

Post by mr riff raff »

Just booked up an overnight trip using this service from Stena.

Anything you think I need to know at either end?

Cheers.

Main thing I wished I'd known is that you can board several hours before the ferry leaves - which is useful if you are going overnight.

Otherwise, enjoy it - I would say it was just about the best international travel experience I've had!

Dont bother about the evening meal, just take a load of food on with you, I think it was 16e per head.
It felt as though I had left England a very long way behind me when we rolled off the ferry at the Hoek :D
Enjoy

The title erroneously refers to Rotterdam rather than Hook of H.
