Ship docks in IJmuiden...best way to get to Amsterdam??

[lanceholt]

We are on the NCL Spirit docking in IJmuiden in early September....can take the Amsterdam On Your Own to get there but that is not very flexible re timing.  Are there any other shuttles running etc?  I understand it is 45 minutes from Amsterdam so taxi is most likely prohibitive.  We have been in Amsterdam a couple of times already so don't want an excursion.

Best and easiest will be the shuttle offered by the ship. You might try Uber, but I am not sure it will work out of IJmuiden for such a long ride. Public transport is rather complicated and takes up far more time.

Depending traffic the ride will be 30/45 minutes indeed.

We will take the ship shuttle....think it will be the best for us.
