Take a few days off, breathe in the salty sea air, and feel like you’ve truly escaped. It sounds like a full vacation – yet with the Ameland Package from Zee van Tijd, this experience can be enjoyed in just a few days. That’s exactly what makes this arrangement so appealing.
The concept is simple and well thought out. You will spend two nights at Zee van Tijd on the mainland and enjoy a fully organized day trip to Ameland Island. Everything is arranged in advance: from accommodation and breakfast to the return ferry crossing. Even your own bicycle can be brought on board at no extra cost.
On arrival day, there is plenty of time to explore the surroundings. In the afternoon, a visit to the charming town of Dokkum is recommended. This historic town, just a few kilometers from Holwerd, invites you to a relaxed stroll along canals, ramparts, and quaint streets. End the day with dinner at your own choice in one of the many restaurants before returning for a calm first night’s stay.
The second day begins with a hearty breakfast. Afterwards, you head to the ferry for the 09:45 departure. Once the ropes are cast off, the bustle of the mainland gives way to peace and relaxation. On Ameland, you have the entire day to discover the island. Cycle through the dunes, take a walk along the beach, or enjoy a coffee on a terrace in one of the villages – you set the pace.
It is precisely this freedom, combined with the convenience of a fully organized package, that makes this short break a real experience for many guests. No separate reservations, no worries about departure times or tickets. And if your plans change, free cancellation up to seven days before arrival is possible.
After a day full of island experiences, you return at 18:30 for another night in Holwerd. The next morning, the stay concludes peacefully with breakfast, without rush or obligations.
The Ameland Package is ideal for anyone who wants a few days away without planning a long vacation. Everything is clear, comfortable, and worry-free – you just need to book and look forward to Ameland.
