Narrow canal houses in Amsterdam
Discover Amsterdam

Amsterdam. Just one more bridge.

Narrow canal houses, a shop you weren’t looking for and lights reflected in water. Sometimes the best Amsterdam plan is to walk a little further.

Make room for the memories

A little closer to Amsterdam.

Find the canal-side rhythm

Follow a canal without aiming for the next big attraction. Notice the gabled houses, bridges and little places between them.

Stay as the light changes

Return to the canals in the evening. Reflections give familiar streets a different character, even after a day with plenty of walking.

Choose another side of the city

Treat the canal ring as a starting point. Choose Jordaan, De Pijp or Oud-West and give one neighbourhood a whole afternoon.

Our suggestion · two unhurried days

A weekend with room to wander

Day 1

Canals and little discoveries

Spend the morning along the canals and in Jordaan. Choose a long lunch stop, then return to the water after the lights come on.

Day 2

Art and a new neighbourhood

Choose one museum in the Museum Quarter. Then head to De Pijp or Oud-West for food and an afternoon with fewer appointments.

Make the days your own. Check opening times and tickets with the places you want to visit.
