Amsterdam is a compact city, with many attractions within walking distance from each other.

The City Sightseeing Amsterdam bus has 9 stops around the city centre, near all the best attractions of the city.

For the duration of you ticket, you can hop on and off the iconic red buses as many times as you want!

So, why not give your feet a rest and hop-on the City Sightseeing bus to get to your next activity. Along the way, don’t forget to hop-off at Gassan Diamonds for a free tour, see the diamond factory and learn all about diamonds and diamond cuts.

We had a really nice Turkish Guide from Istanbul at the Citysightseeing Amsterdam who helped us through our Trip. Thank you
Amsterdam is a beautiful city , and the women there are drop dead gorgeous. I'll be back.
Beautiful palace with self-guided audio tour.
Amsterdam is must visit place and it should be in our to do list
Very good staff and nice experience
Just a cute view
Beautiful city.
Only had water cruise with dinner.
Very interesting city.diferent from everything i had seen before
Fantastic tour, wonderful guide! Such a beautiful city!
the ticket staff were very helpful and informative. The onboard staff were polite and direct and took the boat around with care. if the tour is full it gets a little crowded around the tables. the tour was very good and the choice of languages was excellent. the information was accurate and occasionally told in an amusing way. For yhe price and time. excellent choice for touring the city
luuc and jasmine was amazing hardly recomended
Very helpful and clear info provided
What an amazing city, will definitely be back
We enjoyed this tour very much! The staff were fun and knowledgeable. The tour was given in a few languages, but we were lucky to be on the bus that was English. We rode the bus once round to see everything, then decided which stops we would be getting off and on at. The one stop with the diamonds is the best stop to change over to the boat or bus depending how you started. (We accidentally got on the wrong boat when we changed over - but they didn't care). The diamond house stop is also a great place to use the washroom as it is free, and also there is free hot beverage by machine. It is not the cleanest - likely because it is free, and there is not staff in attendance inside that building, however if people clean up after themselves then it would be better.
The bus and boat combo is the best as you see the city from both perspectives. Conveniently Gets you to the key parts of the city.
Best Tour Service, highly recommended.
Good way to see the city and visit attractions. Bus stops relatively easy to find and free entry to Gassan Diamonds an added bonus.
Brilliant tour, informative and interesting. Warm bus which was so welcome as it was icy cold outside. Simple way to see the city and all the highlights right there. Recommend as it really is an no brainer to do so much in a short space of time
Forget the bus! €27.50 for an hour’s bus trip around the perimeter of the town without live commentary is a bit of a ripoff. It stops for 10 minutes at Gassan Diamonds. After being on the company’s buses in Scotland, this paled in comparison. The cruise, by comparison, is great. Relaxing (so long as there aren’t many people on it). It relies on the same taped commentary but on the canals you get a much better view of Amsterdam from the water. 2 hours long.

Lady is first booth was so unhelpful. Told me she didn’t know what time the bus came, to look on the app. Lucky a couple waiting for the bus said it was due in 10 mins. Lady in second booth was amazing, got off bus and was unsure where to get the boat, she drew me a map of where to go, told me they were every half an hour and told me the best places to get off the boat to see attractions
Perfect destination 😀
Excellent Tour & Sightseeing Experience! A great option for sightseeing in Amsterdam! You can purchase tickets at their office inside central station with available options, or directly at their office in city about 250 mt away from station.The buses depart from Position B near the station. The buses are comfortable, and the guides are friendly and knowledgeable, making the experience even better. Different tour packages are available on a daily basis, so you can choose what fits your schedule best. Highly recommended!
Tolle Stadt
We did both Hop on Hop Off and Canal Cruise! Both worth while. See the sites you want to go back to.
Very busy this time of your but wonderful day. We liked the river taxi most
めちゃめちゃ優しかったです！！
Very nice place to be with family
Amsterdam hop on hop off river cruise is highly recommended taking tough on and off off the main central parts of Amsterdam but the hop on hop off bus was very disappointing with just a periphery circuit of the outer city apart from an unnecessary course change to/from a diamond outlet with a wasted 10 minute stop.
Excellent experience! Staff was super professional and helpful, definitely recommend! A special thank you to Suka, for his kindness and sympathy, he made us feel welcome and cared for. Such a lovely person!
We had a really nice time on the hop on hop off bus and we also went on the cruise as well. Two different perspectives. Took us a bit to find where the bus was.
Great weather in March. Lovely people and delicious food. Our trip was amazing. Visited Gouda and Utrecht for a couple of days. Wind mills, cheese markets, chocolate stores , historical towns and buildings. Enjoyed everything. Such a great country and history to visit and know more.
Tudo maravilhoso 😍
Paula very helpful and helped us secure the tickets 🎟 🙌

The busses and boats made it easy to get around the city to all the main attractions and sightseeing. And it was nice the staff taking the bus passengers to the tour of Gassan diamonds.
We had an amazing time touring Amsterdam city - the canal city tour was very informative and interesting.
Not as good as in other cities but still worth it. We did the bus/boat combo and the boat was best. The signage particularly for the boat stops was terrible, and stop 2 is not being used. There is a lot of hanging out at stops.
I took the Bus and Boat combo tickets. The Canal trip is the one which is a better choice after all Amsterdam is a city of beautiful canals it is one of the main attractions. Bus routes were okay. The canal trip was a two hour ride and it’s relaxing.
Enjoyed our short break in Amsterdam. Especially the fish restaurant centrally located was great and the boat trips are amazing. The city is nice and clean with plenty of food options and cafe’s. I felt very safe during the day & night.
Waww
Great 👍
Great quick overview of the city
We use these bus services in many cities we travel as a great way to get an overview of a city if it's your first time. This was well organized and easy to get a ticket and find stops. Would recommend to first time visitors.
We had so much fun walking around the city. Checking out the canals the cheese was great, and so were the windmills.
We took a fat tire e-bike tour with CitySightSeeing Amsterdam. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with on the tour. The guide was great, he was very friendly and knowledgeable. We felt very comfortable on the bikes, which were very well maintained and easy to handle. The only thing we would have liked was a bit more time to stop and admire a few more of the views. But we certainly realize that it wasn’t quite that type of tour. We really liked getting a great overview of the city while zipping around on bikes!
Hop on and hop off activity 🤩 The best activity in amestrrdam Covered the city in one day
Fantastic trip to see windmills and traditional clog making in the countryside. Great tour guides with historic knowledge and interesting stories to share. Highly recommend.
Immer wieder schön.🤩
