FASTEST BULLET TRAIN in the NETHERLANDS (Amsterdam to Rotterdam) 🇳🇱

Good morning everybody we just left the hotel  and are going on a Netherlands bullet train   from Amsterdam to rotterdam today this is a Everlasting  Quest that we have to see if bullet trains go as   fast as a bullet we’ve been on two so far neither  of them have maybe the Netherlands has what  

It takes let’s go beautiful Netherlands in the  morning feel like we should get some food though   no yeah oh sorry got to watch those Dutch bikers  there we go opening from the de opening from the [Music] could we have two more falafel wrap  he knows us we’ve been here twice in the past

Week yes two falafel thank you thank you very  much Cheers Cheers it’s Kebab it’s   cheap it’s so good it has vegetables full of falafel they’re everywhere we literally eat other  than food tour days this every day pretty much than you yeah amazing thank you so

Much to get to the Amsterdam Central Station we   have to ride the Metro so  now we’re just waiting for it all right it’s stopped over there do  you want to get the camera oh we got to go metro metro train check out  these awesome murals too straight in  

The train station now we have to  go to the ticket service office to print   our tickets we have about 20 minutes  until are train so we should be okay I hope will we get through this line before update  why thinks you found an alternative way to get  

Our tickets printed it’s all in Dutch so I have  to use Google Translate like but it leaves in 10   minutes so I’m trying to hurriedly there  we go is it working yep what’s printing did I  

Click it too many times uh I might have clicked  it like five times uh oh Amsterdam central 24 years old Wyatt Brugge okay we’re good let’s go  and in case we lose our copies we have three more okay 12 11 Thalys it’s going  to Brussels but it’s stopping in  

Rotterdam so let’s go which which platform was it 15a 15a classic what’s new we’re running we’re  fine I love bullet trains shape they’re always   like triangular for the aerodynamics how  sick is that we made it to coach on time   killing it we are I love bullet trains  because unlike airports you don’t have  

To go through security you just go straight  on and it’s awesome really fast comfortable   it’s going to be a great time Thalys that’s  the uh fastest trade in the Netherlands I’m pretty sure honestly I really didn’t think we were going  to make it really yes but we did yeah

This train is great it has USB ports for your phone they also  have like Outlets if you don’t have like a USB   cord and they have trays a lot of leg room a lot  of storage space a trash can which looks pretty  

Gross just saying it’s like full of brown dried  liquid oh here we go we’re rolling here we go it’s got a little coat holder  too they also have super cool cup holders time to do a bathroom tour all right  so just like every bathroom there’s a toilet  

Sink trash can they have two mirrors a coat  rack a light they also have a awesome flusher   that looks like a spaceship flusher if I  ever saw one I feel like it would look like that there’s a fan the sink is automatic  and it definitely seems like the soap is  

More of a pusher type soap definitely  enjoying it and it’s also clean very clean how was the bathroom really nice since we  were in Amsterdam which is a city for the last   3 days it’s nice to change it up and see kind of  like a Netherlands Countryside feel haven’t seen  

That before yet they say like even a tiny hill here you can see basically the whole country I just looked it up bullets  travel at 1,800 mph we’re 83 we’ll   see we’ll see okay so the GPS totally  stopped working but we looked it up  

And the Thalys train maxes out I  don’t know if you can see it at 186 Miles an hour made it well that was quick yeah literally  so fast it felt like only like 10 minutes yeah  

It was like I think a total of 60 or 57 mil and  it took us 40 minutes with a stop of like 7 10   minutes bye awesome looking Dutch bullet train bye  shall we find our hotel yeah I really love escalators

Hello so we’re staying in a capsule  hotel for The Grand Tour here we are   lights there under lights which I love these  accent lights have extra blue lighting wow   this is like a wonderful bed it’s like  a spaceship in here yeah feel like we’re one  

Small step How does it go one small step  for man one giant leap for mankind yeah exactly I don’t know if you guys really  understood when I said that we eat falafel for like   every meal we seriously eat falafel for every  meal we are not kidding now we’re going to walk  

To the most famous landmark in rdale while we eat  some kebab let’s do it mhm it is interesting I feel   like if Amsterdam were an equivalent New York  this would be Chicago super modern lots of Sky   Rises Modern Art and stuff we stumbled upon the  markthal which is a pretty famous spot

Here these are sweet okay so these are the  Rotterdam Cube houses they are like the   biggest landmark here in Rotterdam and they’re  all built on 45° tilt so it’s like a die that’s   spinning you know and it’s just stopped there frozen um they only custom furniture built cuz  

The angles are all super weird like you don’t  have straight up and down walls you know how   do these like work I don’t get it is it like an  optical illusion or something I really hope the   camera does this justice cause the lines are  honestly kind of weird even in person like  

It’s hard to understand what’s going on yeah  it’s very much like trippy yeah it’s like an   illusion exactly like you said just look at  those like creases and how they all have to   meet there perfectly they did a they did it  really well yeah architectural genius oh yep  

Another day just heading to work we live here we  live here all righty y’all that’s it two kebabs   one bullet train ride little bit of a Rotterdam  tour successful vlog I agree let us know what   you think if you like this sort of crazy fun  format yeah and subscribe for more

  1. Fun fact: Dutch is part of the Germanic language which has two sub-divisions (West and North). West Germanic consists of English, German, and Dutch and North Germanic consists of Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian.

  2. What do you think of this video? Any advice or ideas to make it better? 🤔🥰

    We’re really trying to improve and would love to hear your feedback! ❤️

  3. This is actually a French train. It cannot go fast in the Netherlands as the special track has not been laid. Not worth it is such a small country….

  4. Fun fact, there is a hotel/hostel in the Rotterdam cube houses. This is also the cheapest place to sleep in Rotterdam. Standard price of 30 euros per night in a dorm room!

    You might have missed it but Rotterdam is a city that was bombed to the ground in WW2, so almost every building you see is made after that with 2 exceptions, the two oldest football stadiums in the netherlands where spared. The oldest being from 1916!
