Option 1: London-Amsterdam by train+ferry, overnight with cabin: This is the most convenient & time-effective way to go, and one ticket covers the whole journey: £55 one-way, £110 return from central London to central Amsterdam or anywhere else in the Netherlands. The fare includes the train to Harwich, a private cabin on the ferry with en suite shower/toilet, and onwards train travel in the Netherlands. Leave central London in the evening, sleep on the ferry, and arrive in Rotterdam, the Hague or Amsterdam next morning. It runs daily, ideal for a weekend away or an eco-friendly business trip. Timetables, fares & how to buy tickets.

Option 2, London-Amsterdam by Eurostar, daytime: This is the high-speed daytime option taking just 5 hours 36 minutes city centre to city-centre (compare this with around 4½ hours by air in total), with a wide choice of departures and no sea crossing involved. You take Eurostar from London to Brussels via the Channel Tunnel, then either the hourly InterCity train or a high-speed Thalys train train from Brussels to Amsterdam. It's a comfortable & relaxed way to travel, especially when compared to flying. Fares from £69 to £149 return, book early for the cheapest prices. Timetables, fares & how to buy tickets.

Option 3, London-Amsterdam by train+ferry, daytime: This is the cheapest & most leisurely way to go, with combined train+ferry fares from £29 one-way, £58 return from central London to central Amsterdam or any station in the Netherlands. You take an early morning (06:25) train from London to Harwich, Stena Line's daytime ferry to Hook of Holland, then Dutch trains to Amsterdam, arriving around 18:30. It means an early start from London, not everyone can get into London in time to catch it. Eastbound, it runs Monday-Saturdays only. Timetables, fares & how to buy tickets.
*
Option 4, by direct overnight cruise ferry from the north of England: If you live in the north of England or Scotland, the best way to Amsterdam is via an overnight cruise ferry from Newcastle or Hull to the Holland. More information.
