- With DFDS offering a 50% saving on their minicruises , it was the perfect time for a trip over to Newcastle on the 1987 built King Seaways. The vessel is still in perfect condition despite her 37 years at sea. The weather for this trip was a strong northwesterly wind, Force 7-9 with a moderate to rough sea state. We left a bit late from IJmuiden due to the weather but arrived on time in Newcastle. I can highly recommend this mini cruise, especially when it's on offer.. the crew and food are amazing and both vessels were only recently refurbished with new cabins.
For my Dutch viewers, DFDS is having another 50% off promotion for the Newcastle mini cruise if you book before 17/10 and travel between 5/9 and 31/12

Crossed the North sea 4 times Newcastle to Bergen in winter all in gale force winds two of the crossings force 9. When the crew board up the passenger windows to the lounge and string ropes so you cannot go forward nor aft, then you hear the propellers vibrating!!! You know you are in a storm. It was reduced speed and a two hour late arrival. An experience while i slept.
Must have been some trip 😂
Heb de overtocht als heel leuk ervaren,goede catering en schone hutten.
Start van een mooie tocht door scotland.
De moeite waard .
Super crossing 🌊😉👍
Thanks for this great video.
What a huge forces there will be on the bow doors of this old ferry.
It's perfectly safe :) , these ferries are well maintained
Dont worry she can handle it, she has been sailing on Kristiansand - newcastle and THAT could be a ruff ride!
And furthermore shes a Danish lady, and they are proper build!
@@Thedane2023 indeed... I never had the pleasure of travelling from Newcastle to Norway but I've seen some videos/pictures of rough crossings. She was really tested on those crossings.
@@Thedane2023 She is a German built lady, not a Danish built lady.
THIS looks like the proper funny crossing to be on! - there yer can se, feel and really get the feeling yer are sailing LOOLs
It wasn't as rough as they said it would be (sadly) 😂
@@ferriesinfocus A Scottish woman you tuber did this exact crossing- she was seasick, and the sounds of others vomiting could be heard through her cabin walls...It made me feel ill just listening! 🤢
I love the fact you haven't put music over this- just the sound of the waves and the sea.
Lovely cruise
The Northsea. Not for nothing the most dangerous sea of the world. Maters and chief officers are scarry for these sea.
Great video. 👍Do you know whether it is usual to have tug assistance when departing from Ijmuiden or was this due to the high wind?
@@ThamesShips I think so as the passage out of the harbor is very narrow :).
@@ferriesinfocus Thanks.
It's IJmuiden not Ijmuiden. The I and J should both be capitalized
When was this offer?
They had one in spring and again this summer. Just keep an eye on the website of DFDS, they have these promotions once in a while
