Discover Amsterdam on foot

This is really recommended. The center is very easy and quickly accessible on foot. From Central Station you can easily walk into the center of Amsterdam. Here you can go shopping at your leisure, visit various museums, including Ripley's believe it or not. Stroll along the Damrak, enjoy delicious treats at the Spui or go people-watching at the Stationsplein. From the station you can also walk in the other direction (away from the center) where you will find Nemo . A nice museum for young and old.

Discover Amsterdam with the hop-on and hop-off bus

Don't feel like walking or don't you just want to discover the center of the capital? Then choose the hop on hop off bus. The tickets are valid for 24 or 48 hours. The buses are easily recognizable by the red color. The routes pass all the sights of Amsterdam. Children can join for free or at a reduced rate. Ideal for getting to know the city better as a tourist in your own country. You are not tied to a certain distance, you decide where you get in and out. It does not matter how often you use the bus within the pre-purchased time frame.

Tip:use public transport to go to Amsterdam

Amsterdam is a nice city to explore, but it is better to leave the car at home. The city is not only very busy, it can also be quite a task to find a parking space. In addition, parking is not cheap, so it is often a lot cheaper with public transport. If you need to be somewhere else in the city from Central Station, that's no problem. There are countless buses and metros, so you can get everywhere quickly and easily.
