Explore Amsterdam
Amsterdam may be famous for its liberal cafes, hippy bars and the infamous red light district but there’s much more to this fantastic city than makes the headlines. Along the canalsides and cobbled streets you’ll find wonderful architecture, charming markets, fascinating history and impressive museums, not to mention miles and miles of canals and hundreds of beautiful bridges! One of the best ways to explore on your holiday to Amsterdam is by canal cruise but the city is very walkable too if you’d prefer to wander. Evening canal cruises are a great way to dine in style or take your loved one on a romantic trip and if you’re feeling inquisitive there are even some special cruises around the red light district! Shopping on an Amsterdam holiday is a must with designer and budget boutiques and shops all around the city. The best places to visit are the Leidsestraat near Spui or the Kalverstraat and Nieuwendijk near Central Station. Amsterdam is home to over 50 museums so it would be a shame not to visit at least one – the two main ones are the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum.
Family holidays in Amsterdam
Amsterdam holidays might not seem family friendly but there are some fantastic kids’ attractions in the city such as the Artic Zoo, the NEMO science museum and Muiderslot Castle, where children can get in for free if they turn up in a medieval costume. Cycling is very popular in Holland and what better to wear the kids out and work up an appetite than exploring the city by bike on your Amsterdam holiday? Picturesque Vondelpark and Amstel Park are great places for family picnics and older children will enjoy a visit to Anne Frank’s House.
