Welcome to amazing Amsterdam! From dusk to dawn your day will be packed with adventure as you tour through the city.
A rather popular tourist attraction, the canal cruise or “canal bikes” allow visitors to take in the splendor the city has to offer. If you don’t have time to hop on board the boat during the day, consider taking the sunset or nighttime cruise, which offers magnificent views of Amsterdam, as it is outlined with lights. During the day, be sure to go through the Van Gogh Museum, which holds the world’s largest collection of Van Gogh’s masterpieces. Finally, for a truly moving experience, take a tour of Anne Frank’s House where she and her family hid from the Nazis during World War II. Visitors to the house will never forget Anne Frank or her courageous story.
RealTraveler Lauren77 describes her trip to Amsterdam:
“On Saturday, we woke up and went to the Van Gogh museum. It is the largest Van Gogh museum in the world with over 200 of his paintings. It was very crowded, but the art work was spectacular. My favorite part was the pointilism. After that, we went on a canal tour to the old harbour and all around the city. The city of Amsterdam was built on water so there are canals everywhere. We got to sit at our own table on the boat and take pictures of the sites out the window. Amsterdam was freezing, but it was sunny everyday so that was good. After the boat tour, we headed to the Heineken Experience. The actual brewery doesn´t have tours so there is a special museum just to show tourists how the beer is made” (more…)
RealTravelers Dave & Nikki explore Amsterdam:
“We woke early the next day and headed straight for the Anne Frank House. You are able to walk through the annex were the family lived for two years. Such an emotional experience.
After we hopped on a canal boat tour on the canals. It was a great way to see the city. All the buildings lining the canals have such character. many in bright colors and leaning a bit too! It´s a uniquely beautiful city. I love it! We hopped off the boat and hit the Vincent Van Gogh museum. Dare I say Dave enjoyed it! We had lunch in the museum cafe before heading to the Heineken Brewery. We learned all about the green bottles and were given 3 glasses for sampling (licking lips)…..aaahhhh! So why stop there? Next we settling into a pub to watch Man Utd play Reading and have a few more. We finished our day at Wagamama´s for some spicy asian food.
One of the coolest things about Amsterdam is that everyone rides bikes. You have to be be on the look out at all times. The bicycles come at ya from every direction!” (more…)
