Childrens entertainer onboard Newcastle-Amsterdam route

Children's Entertainment - Amsterdam to Newcastle

Our professional children’s entertainer is on hand on all Amsterdam - Newcastle sailings to entertain our mini pirates.

Little ones can enjoy treasure hunts, drawing competitions, games, magic tricks and face painting – all for free – and look forward to a guest appearance by our mascot Jack the Pirate!

Please note: The children's entertainer does not operate a childcare facility; all children must be accompanied by an adult. The entertainment programme changes depending on the entertainer's specialist skills.
