Amsterdam Port Guide

Exploring Amsterdam

From the UNESCO-protected Canal Ring that maps the city’s Golden Age, to the world-class culture found within the halls of the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum, the Anne Frank House or the modern art of the Moco Museum, Amsterdam is a feast for the senses. Should you time your visit with the Dutch spring, the explosion of Tulips at Keukenhof, in the neighbouring town of Lisseadds a kaleidoscope of color to your stay. Whether you are wandering the cobblestoned “9 Streets,” enjoying a canal tour with wine and cheese or sipping coffee by a quiet waterway, your time here is an invitation to slow down and discover the Dutch way of life. Rent a bike to weave through the city’s hidden corners, or join an
all-day or half-day bike tour out to the iconic windmills nearby.
