Great for kids if sunny day! Artis also hosts evenings which is also very nice during summer period. There is life music and can have drinks, really great experience for evening with the kids! Suggest to take an uber there as public transport bit more complicated. Will cost c.12 euros (not more than 15 for sure).

You can't rent bikes at MacBike at the Overtoom and ride around the Vondelpark on a beautiful day. The actual typically Dutch experience as everyone here rides and owns a bike.
