Fabulous, local shopping street. Loads of "brown bars" - think old school dive bars with Dutchie's who have drank there their entire lives! Gets you a taste of the canal ring and connects you to Waterlooplein and Rembrandtplein.

TOURIST hell! But gorgeous and a must see. Also, near Kalverstraat shopping for all the regular brands and some you may not have in your city. Direct walk down from Centraal.

Up & coming neighborhood with great views of Amsterdam. Free ferries from Centraal. Limited restaurants and bars, but still good options. NDSM warf has a man-made beach bar called Plek that is booming on warm days. Also, Ijhallen flea market pops up here about once a month, if you're into that kind of vibe.

Amazing architecture, classic Amsterdam buildings. Easily accessible by trams. Vondelpark is located in this hood and is a great place to lay on a blanket with some snacks and beers while people watching to the MAX! Museumplein and many more museums are within this neighborhood.

Boat Tour

This is the best damn boat tour in the city. I have used them 25-30 times in the last 5 years. It's informal, funny, chill, different every time, and exactly represents Amsterdam's vibe.

Рекомендации для путешественников

Транспорт

Must tap/register train pass as you go on and off.

In any transportation in the country you must register as you go on and off. This deducts the distance you have gone. If you forget, your card will be placed on hold and you'll have to speak to a agent to fix it. These agents can only help you in major train stations. i.e: Centraal, Amstel, and Zuid.

Tipping

It is not necessary to tip service staff, unless it's a long, drawn out meal where they have done a lot for you. If you'd like to tip, because you're kind, then it's okay to round the cents up and add a euro or two. You should not go over 15% with tipping.
Что взять с собой

Rain coat

You will need a rain coat in The Netherlands, so just pack one! Bring one that can easily be packed in your handbag or backpack because you'll be taking it on and off your entire stay. Not joking!
