Why Visit Amsterdam

Amsterdam's compact, canal-lined center is highly walkable and cyclable, making it one of the easier European cities to explore without a car.

Where to Stay

The city center puts you close to major sights but at a premium; neighborhoods like De Pijp offer a more local feel a short tram ride from the core.

Amsterdam Schiphol Airport

Schiphol Airport connects to central Amsterdam by direct train in around 15-20 minutes, one of the more convenient airport-to-city links in Europe.

Getting Around

Trams, bikes and walking cover the city center well — renting a bike is a popular and practical way to get around like a local.

Planning Your Days

Plan your days around canal-side neighborhoods and museums, and consider a day trip to a nearby town if your stay runs longer than three or four days.
