NS website or app is the best for train tickets if Amsterdam is your home-base and you want to do a few day trips to Belgium and Germany. Iamsterdam card is a must for the first timers. It will save you lots of money if you use all the features. Great video

For rent a bike, is it necessary to have an OV-Chip card? And to buy a 2 day's ticket in Amsterdam or single tickets for trains? Is it necessary to have it?

Thanks for the vid! Do you know if we can also use contactless for areas a little bit outside of Amsterdam central like Broek in Waterland?

Are you able to buy the OV Chip kaart if you don't have a Dutch bank account or address in order to make use of the 40 per cent discounts?
@DutchGuide2 ай бұрын
Hi! If you have an IBAN, then it should be possible. This is what I found on their website: www.ov-chipkaart.nl/en/apply-for-personal-ov-chipcard

Hi next week i will be go amsterdam for 4 days & i want to use public transport. I have plan to visit Keukenhof tulip garden, Geithon village & near Amsterdam visiting place.which ticket i buy???
@DutchGuide2 ай бұрын
Hi there! There are buses from Amsterdam to Keukenhof with more ticket info here: keukenhof.nl/en/ov/ For Giethoorn, the NS train is your best bet. You can easily pay with a bank or credit card. The 9292 app is handy for planning the trip, and there are also tours from Amsterdam to Giethoorn if you prefer. Around Amsterdam, using your bank or credit card is usually fine. If you’re planning to use public transport a lot, consider getting a GVB city card for 9€, which gives you 24 hours of use. If you’re also into visiting museums and attractions in Amsterdam, the Amsterdam city card could be a good fit. Hope you have a great visit!

Hii, awesome info. Just a quick question, do you recommend a boat tour in the canals if I have a 5 hour layover in a few weeks ?
@DutchGuide3 ай бұрын
Hi, thank you so much for watching! I think it can be possible. The canal tours are usually around 1 hour, and the boarding points are just a short walk from the central station, about 3-5 minutes.

Hi! How is the cost of the joinery on GVB trams calculated when using contactless visa card? It based on distance? Or is there is fixed price? Thank you!
@DutchGuide3 ай бұрын
Hi, thank you for watching! Yes, it's based on the distance :)
@nitwit9993 ай бұрын
There is a start fee + a distance fee. If you change to a different line there is no second start fee.

Great Video! Thanks for uploading this! Planning a visit to Amsterdam next month. So can I just travel on all trams, buses, metro and inter-city trains all over the Netherlands with just my contactless visa card alone? There's no longer need to buy train or bus tickets in advance but just walk-in and walk out of the stations with my visa card? And that means there is no need for those ticketing APPs like NS, 9292, Glimble unless just for checking the schedules? Is my understanding correct? THANKS.
@DutchGuide3 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for watching and your nice comment! And that’s correct, you can just use your visa card for all the transportation methods. No need to buy a ticket in advance. And yes, apps like 9292 and NS, are not necessary but I would recommend it, especially 9292. It’s very handy for the schedules. Great travels to Amsterdam!!

Hi! Thank you for commenting. Most of the places that are mentioned in the video are actually great to visit at night. You can also just wander by the glowing canals, or visit a bar or café (especially Leidseplein is nice for bars and cafes). Museums usually close earlier, but keep an eye out for special events-they sometimes open late. Maybe you can get inspiration from here: www.iamsterdam.com/en/see-and-do/museums-and-galleries/art-after-dark-late-opening-museums-in-amsterdam (unfortunately most are still not open at night). Enjoy your layover in Amsterdam!
