Fred. Olsen Bolette | Who did we meet in Amsterdam?

Sailing the North Sea Canal. A Saturday night in Amsterdam. A meet up with fellow cruise KZbinrs.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

It was fantastic to finally meet you both! Hopefully it won’t be too long until next time! 👍

[@andyandkirstie]

Great to meet you guys to! See you again soon for more drinks!

[@cathieschmitgal5515]

Argentinian/ Mexican food 😂😂😂😂 this is the best video ever…..never the same view! Thank you so much…..love every minute!

[@anng8468]

Not only do I adore you both but in addition to that, Andy you are a brilliant film maker! Rick Steves has a production team and crew, but your imagery and music beds are genius. Kirstie singing American Pie heartwarming.

[@andyandkirstie]

Thank you!

Those night shots from Amsterdam on our new LG C2 OLED TV. Wow, just wow.

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks, it's a lovely city at night.

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Max just said , “Wow he has a fair beard hasn’t he”, guess we haven’t caught up on vlogs for a while 😂.Bet they opened the roof because of the BBQ smoke. I have “American Pie’ stuck in my head now 😅. Max is singing “the day the music dies “ behind me in the kitchen now .

Great video! Loved seeing Amsterdam at night!

[@nigelgreer9954]

Great video as per usual Andy. That sail into Amsterdam is fantastic. Did it last year on P&O Ventura and loved it. On our cruise we did the same overnight. Red Light in the evening then the next day explored Amsterdam and found it to be a beautiful city. Look forward to next week.

[@dennisdalessio8238]

Thanks for another great Vlog. Sights of Amsterdam looked very nice.

[@lindaedge6674]

There’s nothing like Amsterdam ❤

[@andyandkirstie]

One of our favourite places ❤️

[@firstfreonwarrior]

Excellent fun, Kirstie looked remarkably well after a long evening on the town!

[@davemacauley7870]

Great vlog as always guys! Luke & Gavin are a scream aren't they! Enjoy the rest of your cruise.

[@dancourt4792]

Just found your vlogs and they are very enjoyable to watch so I will be tuning more often x

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks!

[@txpepito]

Awesome vlog!! Thank you for sharing!!

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks!

[@kathyslocombe1182]

Lovely video, as always. Such a treat to see Gavin & Luke aka Cruise Monkeys. With Bolette being a former HAL ship, I was surprised to see that HAL kept the washroom/bathroom toilet configuration the same in their new ships. Many passengers comment how awkward it can be. We'll be on the Koningsdam in Feb./24 and watched your series on her to Alaska (also a great video series) and now starting to watch this series, it appears that HAL mirrored some features from their previous ships. Thanks for always bringing great content.

[@andyandkirstie]

We really enjoyed the Fred Olsen ship. A great size.

[@BChecker56]

Beautiful video and music😀😀😀

[@andyandkirstie]

Thank you!

[@dzung1969]

Love andy without the beard! 😂. He looks much younger and handsome. 😊

[@andyandkirstie]

😄👍

[@leeandjancruise]

Never visited Amsterdam but will get there one day, lovely night time shots and oh so busy, really surprised.

[@andyandkirstie]

It's a great place to have a walk around.

[@alisonburrow7404]

Another great cruise, thank you Andy and Kirstie xx

[@andyandkirstie]

Our pleasure!

[@alisonburrow7404]

I have just returned from a 10night Spain and Portugal cruise on P&O Ventura, it was my 4th cruise, loved it, it's a great way to holiday and see some of the world at the same time, can definitely understand why you cruise a lot, wish you more happy cruises, best wishes from an avid fan x

[@Schenkerflyingv]

Another great video. 👍🏼 Amsterdam is one of those must visit cities. I hope the little finger injury wasn’t too painful Andy 😉

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks! It friggin' hurt when I shut the door on it, but it's fine now!

[@christineguise689]

Great to see you Andy and Kirsty would you do another Fred Olsen cruise 😻

[@andyandkirstie]

Yes, we would.

[@KenGoesCruising]

Glad to see Gavin and Luke kept you up late. They kept us up till 4am

[@andyandkirstie]

Don't know where the time went, it was good fun. Not sure we'd want to keep that up for an entire cruise though!

[@toopoos]

Black pudding with macaroni cheese and a dollop of HP is my go to dirty dish. 👍

[@andyandkirstie]

Sounds good to me!

[@janemayhew1442]

Hi Kirstie & Andy, Great video of your cruise into and around Amsterdam, busy place ! Looks very nice ship ,especially the wide prom deck , How do prices compare with P& O? Looking forward to next video .

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks! The prices are pretty reasonable, especially considering there are a lot less passengers onboard. The ship felt calmer and quieter, with more intimate venues. Much nicer than the noisy, crowded areas of the big, modern ships.

[@janemayhew1442]

@@andyandkirstie Thanks for info, Will give Fred Olsen a look ,see which itinerary they do . Yes we are finding the new large ships a step too far !! With noise/ echoing venues due to their size , 🤔

[@andyandkirstie]

👍

[@fredsprague5583]

What was the lovely music heard as you sailed into Amsterdam, please?

[@andyandkirstie]

Not sure what it was called, but it was a track from the royalty free music provider I use, Epidemic Sounds.

[@juliepickles3394]

Lovely vlog Andy bet it was a real eye opener 😂🙀😂 it was nice to see the cruise monkeys 🐒 🙈 🙊 with you did they show you both how to drink 🤣🤣🤣 thank-you for sharing your holiday take care you 2 👋

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks, we had a great day/evening.

[@frankmaxwell5193]

Hi can you tell me, is there a bus or tram stop near the port. Heading there next week ❤

[@andyandkirstie]

Hey, there are trams running up and down past the port and there always seem to be bus shuttles nearby. Don't know about stops though. Sure there are as it's very close to the railway station.

[@frankmaxwell5193]

@@andyandkirstie Cheers guys, most will head to the central station, then onwards from there. Were off next Friday 🥳.

[@andyandkirstie]

Have a great time!

[@louisaL1980]
