Travelling from Paris (France) to Amsterdam (Netherlands)

Friday = 11 x trains
Sunday to Thursday = 9 x trains
Saturday = 7 x trains

Final Destination:  Amsterdam Centraal

Note that these trains depart from the Gare Du Nord in Paris.

The journey:

These Thalys trains are the only direct trains between  Paris and The Netherlands

This is a route that has been transformed by the advent of high speed rail travel.

There have never been so many direct trains from Paris to Amsterdam -  and aside from two fairly short stretches of the route (between Bruxelles and Antwerpen and between Schiphol and Amsterdam) you'll be travelling at high speed for the entire train ride!

It's not a scenically interesting journey, but look out around 15 mins after the train has departed Antwerpen - for the dramatic crossing of the location of where the River Rhine meets the North Sea.

And, as can be seen, you can see windmills between Rotterdam and Schiphol.
