We meet up again at the end of the day in Lille to set off for Amsterdam. On the bus, the atmosphere is relaxed: some are sleeping a little, others are already starting to chat. We arrive at the hostel at around 10.30pm. It's ideally located right in the center of town, a stone's throw from the canals and everything you need to make the most of your stay.
As soon as we've settled in, we're off to the city's liveliest district. Amsterdam at night, the streets are full of life and the shop windows light up. We go out together to a club we've selected for you, with free entry when we can negotiate it (Rémi always manages). The party starts immediately. And it promises to be an unforgettable weekend!
You wake up in the heart of Amsterdam, and the day is yours. You can visit must-sees like the Van Gogh Museum or the Anne Frank House, or prefer a leisurely stroll along the canals. The red light district awaits you with its strange shop windows, narrow streets and unique coffee shops. Others may prefer to relax in a park, shop in the thrift shops or even spend a few hours discovering the windmills of Zaanse Schans. Whatever you fancy, the city always has something to offer.
In the evening, we do it again. Another evening all together in a different club, selected by our tour leader. This is often where the best encounters take place. Maybe you'll end the evening chatting on the banks of a canal... or on the dance floor until closing time.
It's your last day in Amsterdam, but there's still plenty to experience. In the morning, you can return to the center for a leisurely stroll, visit the famous flower market, buy the latest souvenirs or simply enjoy a coffee on a canal-side terrace. If you didn't have time to visit the museums the day before, you can still enjoy the Van Gogh Museum, the Rijksmuseum or the Anne Frank House. And if you're curious, this is also the perfect opportunity to visit the windmills of Zaanse Schans, just a few kilometers from the center.
A word of advice: in Amsterdam, museums often sell out several days in advance. If you want to be sure of getting in, remember to book your tickets now!
At the end of the afternoon, we all meet up again to take the bus. Departure is around 7pm, with an expected arrival in Lille around 10:30pm.

Unforgettable destinations!
A dynamic, open city full of contrasts. With its canal landscapes, world-famous museums, relaxed atmosphere and lively nightlife, it's the perfect mix for a festive, cultural weekend.
Did you know?
Amsterdam has more bridges than Venice: almost 1,500 span its historic canals.
The city's most famous district, with its shop windows, coffee shops and underground atmosphere. It's also one of Amsterdam's oldest neighborhoods, with cobblestone streets, canals and a real neighborhood feel.
Did you know?
This neighborhood, often reduced to its sultry reputation, is also home to churches, art galleries, cool bars... and even a cannabis museum. Yes, everything coexists in Amsterdam.
Amsterdam is famous for its coffee shops, which don't just serve coffee. If you're curious, you'll find they're everywhere. But each one has its own rules, atmosphere and "menu".
Did you know?
It's forbidden to smoke tobacco in coffee shops... but smoking anything else is legal as long as you stay within the legal limits. A 100% Dutch paradox.
You can easily switch from partying to culture. The Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum and the Anne Frank House are among the most visited in Europe.
Did you know?
The Anne Frank House is so popular that it is often fully booked several days in advance. If you want to go, make sure you book early!

Our charters
At Erasmus Place, the journey begins as soon as you get on the bus. It's a friendly atmosphere, where people get to know each other, have a laugh and share music and tips.
Our buses are comfortable, air-conditioned and equipped with toilets, barring major exceptions. We want you to feel at ease, even during several hours of driving. To make sure everything goes smoothly, we also have a few simple rules: respect for everyone, no inappropriate behavior, no consumption of alcohol or banned substances on the bus.
For each trip, we select quality establishments, always with a minimum 2-star rating for hotels. Whether it's a hotel or a hostel, you can count on comfortable, clean and conveniently located accommodation.
Our hotels and hostels are always located in the city center, close to places of interest and local entertainment, so you can make the most of your stay without wasting time in transport. With a few exceptions.
Rooms are shared among friends, in a relaxed atmosphere, but we respect a simple rule: men stay with men, women with women. Rooms are divided into groups of 2, 3 or 4 people, depending on the configuration of the site. If you're traveling as a couple, it's possible to have a room for two, but only by prior arrangement.
We want you to feel comfortable, surrounded and safe throughout your stay.
Each Erasmus Place trip is supervised by one or more trained Tour Leaders, who are friendly and always available. Their role is to ensure that your stay is well organized, that the group is safe and that a friendly atmosphere prevails from departure to return. They welcome you, inform you, lead the trips, coordinate the different stages of the program and listen to you throughout the trip.
Our Tour Leaders are fluent in between two and five languages, including English, making it easy to communicate with all participants, whatever their nationality. They are not certified guides like those you find in museums, but they know perfectly well the destinations they visit, the instructions for the trip, and the good tips to share. They're there to accompany you, reassure you, answer your questions, deal with the unexpected and make sure you get the most out of your Erasmus experience.
Their aim is simple: to make sure you return home with your head full of memories... and the desire to go back (alone or with us!).
