Traffic was the worst this recent trip I have ever encountered but we also know why. However even before the strikes it was bad on the Dutch side and certainly restricted us as I am not coming on vacation to sit in traffic so just turned around and either went back to the villa or ate elsewhere. What a tough life, so can’t really complain too much, just have to improvise.
Still think the place is magical but certainly felt uncomfortable at times with what has been occurring as no doubt we all did or do.
Exploring new ventures/restaurants is high on our list though so will just watch and see how this all works out but will not book months in advance for our next trip which probably means higher flight costs but rather be safe than sorry.
