Amsterdam: The City of Bikes, Coffeeshops and Canals, Amsterdam, Netherlands

Amsterdam is definitely in the Top 3 of my favourite cities in the world. I have been here a total of four times now, and have loved this city more each time! This city is filled with so much cultural diversity, and so much to do.

From festivals, nightlife, exhibitions, museums, restaurants, bars, clubs, shopping, events, plus excursion & attraction listings. You won’t miss out on anything if you don’t want to. There is something here for everyone, 365 days a year.

Cycling is probably the most fun way to explore the city. Did you know that there are roughly 800,000 bikes in Amsterdam? With 63% of Amsterdammers using their bike on a daily basis. It’s incredible. Single or tandem bikes can be rented for under 10 Euro a day.

We had the option of renting bikes but though chose to get the ‘Iamsterdam City Card‘ to explore the city via public transport. The Iamsterdam City Card gives you unlimited use of buses, trams, and the metro for the duration of validity. Do not visit Amsterdam without getting this card for your trip. The amount of money you can save is unreal! ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
