HI!
I believe the bus journey from Amsterdam to Frankfurt is very nice. Is it true? How long does it take and what are the timings and fares etc. Where can I get this information?

I have checked out the site but it is Dutch. Could you please give me a site where the info is available in English

Just press "English" in the top middle section.

If you consider looking at the median of a freeway for about eight hours nice you can indeed take the bus. The really nice way to go from Amsterdam to Frankfurt is by train. The train takes four hours, and leaves about every two hours from Amsterdam.

Hi
I did press the "English" button on top and the only thing that changed is this
PROMOTION: THREE FREE HOTEL NIGHTS IN THE NETHERLANDS WITH A TICKET. Everything else remained pretty much the same

Standard fare one way ticket for an adult is Euro 42 + Euro 3 additional booking fee. (try "reservations" without booking to get this information).

If I were you I'd consider taking the train. A one way ticket for the ICE train can be had for 39,- if booked 14 days in advance.
You can start the booking process here: http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en

(Personally no Euroline Bus is nice enough so that I would consider taking it, not even if I was offered money...)
