Neil,320 touring needs to read this thread,he's done quite a lot road trips.

Where to go though,no idea really,but I do know,don't stay in Hotel America in the Hook of Holland,it's a shithole.

The Reeperbahn is fine. Look for Hein Hoyer strasse (opposite Burger King and the Cop Shop), plenty of good bars down there like Lunacy etc. For grub, look for the Hesburger place (ask) as they do a tasty burger, much better than McShite.

Unlike a lot of these places you'll be pretty safe there - leave your wallet and phone elsewhere, just take 60 Euros with you.

I lived just off the Reeperbahn you see...........

60 erous sound familiar.......................

when i whent there with the lads on stag weekend we were walking around looking for a decent pub, so we apporached 2 attractive young ladies, tight jeans, moon boots and puffer schott jackets ( very counsil but i'll blame it on german dress sence) and just casually asked them where's good to go and have a good time.........

thier reply was...............

"come with me, for 60 euros you WILL have a good time"

they were tom's LoL

eventually we found a decent bar, then progressed to a club. upon paying entrance fee we were given a drinks voucher, and a jonny........... 8O
