between berlin to london

hello friends,

have an opening duing my current 49 day europe backpacking tour and would like some advice. leaving berlin on the 4th of august and need to be in london on the 10th of august. in terms of experience/budget what would you suggest doing for the 6 days. i think currently the plan is spend a few days of those in amsterdam, would it best to take a flight from amsterdam to london or do amsterdam right after berlin.

travelling with 2 other guys, have a keen interest to do something backdoorsy/out of the norm for those few days. ok with renting a car as well.

thanks for any advice you can lend!

Hi ellett44,

Spent a week in Amsterdam a couple of years ago. Found the people to be very friendly but the city itself did nothing for me. Did not find it easy on the pocket with hotels very poor value.

Options.. Lisbon is a great city and excellent value for money. 4 Star hotels for next to nothing.Great food and restaurants and lots to see and do. Santiago de Compostela again is wonderful with very good value for money in hotels, bars and restaurants. Last option from me is Rouen in France. About 1 hour from Paris it is a great small city with lots to see and do for a few days. Great value in hotels, bars and restaurants. All would have good links to London. Enjoy your trip.

Regards,

Supervanman.
