Any suggestions on what is the best way of booking tickets for 2 end of April ??
From Bruges to Amsterdam you have two choices. Intercity trains with a change in Antwerp. For this no advance reservations are required simply purchase your tickets at the station on the day of your journey. You're other option is IC train to Antwerp or Brussels and then the faster Thalys high-speed train to Amsterdam. For the lowest fare advance reservations are needed ASAP. For schedules and tickets head here: http://www.nshispeed.nl/en For Amsterdam to London take the Thalys to Brussel, and then transfer to the Eurostar chunnel train to London St Pancras station. You can use the above website for those tickets as well. As with the Thalys train, the sooner you book the cheaper it will be.
