Friday 8th - Arrive in Amsterdam, we recommend getting the Eurostar out and flying back, we will of course transfer you to your chosen form of transport. Once settled in your Hotel, we will pick you up and take you to an excellent restaurant in the centre on Amsterdam life in the Pjip. 

Saturday morning - the races are split with the women's races in the morning and the men's in the afternoon. If you would like to sightsee this is an opportunity to go to the Rijksmuseum or watch the morning races depending on the weather, it can be hot or ice cold!! We will tow your boat or hire you a boat for the race and we will prepare the boat for you.

Saturday Evening - gives you the opportunity to head into central Amsterdam to take in the nightlife, we can book a restaurant for you, or you can go it alone. 

Sunday Morning - those crews required to race the 750m will do so mid morning, then rest and a spot of lunch. The 5k's will start after lunch with the Masters races first.

After the race Nereus Boat Club is the place to be and they put on a great party atmosphere as the races come down. As racing finishes we will either take you back to your transport (Last planes to Gatwick at 2030 or 2125) or you can stay the night for the Prizing and raucous party at Nereus.

Monday morning we will ensure you make it to you train or plane.
