If you want to experience Amsterdam from the inside out, consider investing in a GVB public transport card which provides unlimited use of trams, buses, ferries and trains for 24 or 72 hours. This way, you can hop on and off at your leisure – saving you money in the long run!

Trams are your ideal option if you need quick and effortless transport around town. Thankfully, they connect to metro stations at various stops so that longer journeys can easily switch over to this mode of transport.

If you’re looking for a more leisurely approach, renting a bicycle is an option. The Dutch love their bicycles and they provide great transportation around town without relying on public transport. Be sure to explore all types of bikes available and make sure your bike has a secure lock before leaving it on any designated cycle track!
