What to do and see in Amsterdam: start at your favorite attraction and go from there

One of the advantages of Amsterdam is that most interesting things are located in or around the city centre. That means that a lot of sights and attractions are at walking distance from each other. Our tip is to start at the attraction you want to see most and go from there to the other alluring places you wish to visit.

So, what do you want to see most? Masterpieces from Dutch painters at the Rijksmuseum? One of the oldest zoos in Europe? Wax statues from the greats of the earth at Madame Tussauds? Tours & Tickets offers you tickets for the lowest prices to all these attractions and more.

Go native, take a bike tour!
