How to discount Eurostar Fares to Amsterdam
The through fares from London to Amsterdam are generally good value when compared with flight costs including all the additional charges of baggage, check-in, transport to the airport etc.
By “through-fare” we mean the price given if you search from London to Amsterdam and the reservation system includes the connection in Brussels. Rail Europe offer these fares – see our Eurostar Page heading above.
But we’ve just saved £116 by booking the cheapest fare London – Brussels – London with Rail Europe, costing £69 for the dates we required.
Then we booked this special offer which is valid for travel 15th July through to 19th August:
19 euro each way for travel from Brussels to any Dutch station. That’s approximately £31 return
To book this onward fare, visit the Belgium Rail site, below:

UPDATE 6th July 2012
The onward fares Brussels to Amsterdam are not valid on the high speed THALYS trains. The intercity trains have to be used which take just under 3 hours.
The through fare includes the THALYS train service.
Do also use our flights page as prices start from £99 return with Air France KLM and Cityjet
