This is the worst campsite I have been to in continental Europe in my memory although it does have good features. The location is excellent - on foot less than half an hour from the city centre (walk and free ferry) or bus. On arrival at reception on a Saturday evening the camping fields were hidden from view by tall... More

It could be a good camp site due to small distance to city center. However greedy owners and rude staff spoiled it. Also you can't enter campsite until you pay for night. You've been warned. More

Camping Vliegenbos wasn't all bad: the bathrooms were clean (even if they lacked toilet seats) and ample hot water was available. Otherwise the place was expensive and not too friendly. Most campsites do not have electrical hookups and Internet is only available from an overpriced coin-operated kiosk. Bus service runs to/from Centraal until midnight or so -- Merelstraat stop (think... More

This should be a good camp site, set in a leafy park very near to Amsterdam centre, but the sheer greed of the owner has spoiled it. You cannot assess the site before you sign in and for an expensive fee we were left to try to cram in somewhere on a ridiculously overcrowded site. There was no room to... More

This campsite is pretty awful. Despite the already terrible reviews we went ahead and chose it over Zeeburg and Gaasper because of the location but i can certainly say i wouldn't stay there as a couple or family again. I wouldn't recommend this campsite to anyone other than large groups of young lads or girls, it's like camping at a... More

I have been to camping vliegenbos over 5 times now. The campsite is really easy to get to and fro Centraal Station but only by bus. The campsite has cabins which are excellent but in my opinion too expensive. Camping costs 10 euro for a night and the toilets/showers are regularly cleaned, hot water could as always be hotter !...

I went to Amsterdam in a later June of 2009 with my mates, and we decided to stay in Vliegenbos. And we loved it. The price is 10 euros per night for person, which is actually little bit more expensive (for example you can find an accomodation in a cheap youth hostel for 9 euros, but whatever). We stayed 3...
