A question about : Megabus to Amsterdam,Paris,Brussels or Boulonge for Ј1

Or Ј2.50 return including booking fee.From London and(I think) M Keynes and Leicester.
From 16/04-20/05,but they should release later dates eventually.

Best answers:

  • Doesnt seem to be working for me, price is 44 quid each way. Is there a direct link to the offer?
  • I can find them, I just can't find two that match up right, for instance, I can get return tickets for Ј2 each way for two of us, but I can't get an outgoing ticket that matches an incoming ticket date, so I can go on May 1st for example, but I can't come back until May 4th.
    Ideally you'd want a late outgoing ticket that gets you there the following morning:
    Departs 18:50 Milton Keynes, Coachway
    Arrives 08:50 Amsterdam, Zeeburg P&R coach park at Zuiderzeeweg
    and to come home on a late ticket that gets you home the next morning:
    Departs 21:30 Amsterdam, Zeeburg P&R coach park at Zuiderzeeweg
    Arrives 10:10 Milton Keynes, Coachway
    So you'd have the whole day there.
    Nice find if you can make them match or don't mind staying over
  • how about........
    buy two return tickets each eg.
    2x leaving may 3rd returning june 3rd (use outgoing part)
    2x leaving march 3rd returning may 10th (use incoming part of ticket)
    so you would book 2x returns each travel 3rd may til 10th may throw away the useless parts of tickets or give them to a hitchhiker
  • Found tickets that would get me a London-Paris return for Ј15.50, not so many left at the moment for Ј1 (I only saw 1).
    It's one to keep an eye on. At Ј15.50 it's miles better than the minimum Ј69 Eurostar!
    Thanks OP, am dying to go to Paris!
  • shame i dont have a passport
  • I had no idea you could get the bus from MK to Amsterdam!
    Not sure how comfortable it would be though, has anyone done it?
  • mega buses are usally quite comfy and the last two I went on had on board wifi and power points
  • A bit late putting it on the Martin's Money Tips as the Ј2.50 tickets were sold out 4 days ago.
  • Hmmph.
    I posted this deal shortly after posting on HUKD.
    Things went a bit crazy on there,but wanted to share it here also as have been a long time poster.
    Now I find it is included on martin's e mail with no credit here,but around 890 people "liking" it via the email,but only 15 people have bothered to say thanks on this thread.
    I doubt many would have found it at the time,I stumbled on it whilst looking for other bus tickets on 8th march.
    It was only in small print on the website then.I didnt book tickets myself but wanted to spread the word.
    Oh well,at least HUKD managed to say thanks when posting their email and thank you to the 15 who bothered here.
  • I booked it recentley 25 quid return for sheffield to amsterdam! was very pleased...
    ... however i am wondering is there any mains plugs on the buses so can charge phone etc?
    if not am i right in thinking they'll have some dotted about on the ferry?
    thanks
