Who knew a football stadium visit could be such good fun.

My 16 year old son and I visited. We booked a guided tour. Our tour guide was brilliant. He had phenomenal knowledge of football, and had incredible stories. It was great to hear a loyal Ajax fan getting his dream job, and his passion shone through I know little about football and still really enjoyed myself. The shop is expensive as you would expect but you do get 10% from going on the tour.

Brilliant experience

From the time we entered to when we left it was a great experience. The staff were friendly and very helpful - when we went around we did the self tour however in every area there was someone to tell you about the room you were in . One particular lad, who was in the away dressing room was spectacular!! he and my husband could have talked football forever, he even caught up with us to give us more information about the museum. You are not rushed - you go at your own pace and even if you are not a football fan it was good experience. Reasonably priced compared to other clubs we have been to- lots to see

Great Football Arena

A great experience and a fabulous arena. Well organized venue and a great (noisy) crowd made this a must do football stadium visit. Pricey buying tickets from home(UK), but still worth it.

Enjoyed the guided tour, disappointed with the VR

Our family of 4 enjoyed the 75 minute Guided Full Experience Tour. Our tour guide was friendly and informative and in each area we visited, we had plenty of time for self-exploration and picture taking. The VR experience part was disappointing, as you were given a cardboard box to put your cell phone in (note that a larger phone and/or a bulky case may not fit), and this was not really part of the tour itself anyway. You then had to carry this around with you. We were told that the VR could be done from home, and we did try it 2 weeks later, but the picture orientation was opposite the cardboard box orientation – just did not work well. We did visit the arena during summer concert season, so could not see the pitch as it was covered with metal plates. After the guided part of the tour, you can explore the trophy room/museum. The gift shop had a wide variety of items. Easy to get to by metro train from Amsterdam Centraal Station – no connections and entrance was a five-minute walk from station. There are several bars, stores, restaurants and a movie theater in the area between the train station and stadium.

Great tour

Had to change our booking twice with minimal fuss. Opted for the audio tour which we couldn’t get to work. Didn’t take away from the experience as we did it at our own pace and spent plenty time doing so. Enjoyed the experience

De concierto

Planificado en 1993 e inaugurado en 1996. Desde 2018 Johan Cruiff ArenA, anteriormente Amsterdam ArenA. Estadio de futbol del AFC Ajax con usos múltiples. Junto al estadio se encuentra la parada de metro Amsterdam Strandvliet. Tiene un afoto de casi 56.000 espectadores para partidos de futbol y 71.000 para conciertos. El estadio se puede cerrar por completo en 18 minutos. Tuvimos la suerte de ver a Bruce Springsteen en concierto el 27/05/2023.

Tour Off Season.....Bella esperienza

Chi è appassionato di calcio come me sicuramente rimarrà entusiasta dell'esperienza. Si entra in contatto dal vivo con il mondo Ajax. Ho potuto prenotare solo il tour off season che non permette l'ingresso nel terreno di gioco, per il resto tutto molto bello, ingresso in tribuna, spogliatoi, zona mista, sala stampa e museo con i trofei, accompagnati da una simpatica guida che ha dettagliato il tutto. Raggiungibile comodamente con la metro 54 in pochi minuti dalla stazione centrale, fermata bijlmer arena di fronte lo stadio. Ben fornito il fan shop con prezzi onesti. Nel complesso siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti.

La casa 🏟 dei lancieri ⚪🔴

Ci siamo recati di recente all'Amsterdam Arena (che quantomeno ricordavo con questo nome) per visitare la struttura, realizzando che la stessa da poco più di un anno è stata giustamente intitolata al grandissimo Johan Cruijff (non ero aggiornato in tal senso). Giunti in loco verso le 12.30 🕧 di domenica scorsa, abbiamo parcheggiato tranquillamente le nostre bici 🚲 di fronte all'impianto 🏟 portandoci quindi all'ingresso. Una volta acquistati i ticket 🎫, ci sono state consegnate delle cuffiette auricolari 🎧 da utilizzare con l'audioguida direttamente tramite il proprio smartphone 📱 (connettendosi al sito del museo e inserendo un codice d'accesso riportato sul biglietto stesso). Davvero ingegnoso tale sistema, che difatti abbiamo apprezzato molto. In breve è iniziato anche il tour guidato, che ci ha permesso di esplorare i vari ambienti del complesso, dagli spogliatoi alla sala stampa passando per la galleria dei trofei 🏆 e naturalmente anche il campo da gioco ⚽️. A fronte delle molte recensioni presenti in questa pagina, non so che altro potrei aggiungere che già non sia stato detto; in ragione di ciò preferisco non dilungarmi in superflue descrizioni. Suggerisco piuttosto di far tappa in loco qualora si passi da queste parti (anche perché la visita risulta gradevole e non particolarmente impegnativa). Molto preparato e disponibile il ragazzo che ci ha accompagnati durante il giro. Il biglietto d'ingresso, comprensivo appunto anche della visita guidata, costa 15 euro (se non ricordo male). Il Wi-Fi è a disposizione degli ospiti e funziona bene. ESPERIENZA SENZ'ALTRO CONSIGLIATA 👍.

Incontournable

Une belle visite incontournable pour les fans de foot Accès aux entrailles du stade, à la pelouse (bord), a un petit espace musée du club Ajax et on finit dans la (grande) boutique Compter 1h30 pour en profiter Un seul regret : qu’il n’y ait pas de maillot vintage dans la boutique !
