  • Favorite Thing: Amsterdam is one of my most favorite cities in the world. The City itself is very easy to get around either on foot or even better by bike. For about 20$ USD a day you can rent a bike that will help you cover lots of ground.

    Fondest Memory: This is a pictureof the Amsterdam skyline taken from the top of a mall.

  • Favorite Thing: Visit a VVV office. Tthe Netherlands has some of the best tourist information available at their tourist offices throughout the country. A VVV office can provide the traveler with anything from maps to city guides to hotel reservations all at a reasonable price. If you don't already have the information you need or if you need a room I highly recommend that you visit a VVV office before you do anything. A hotel reservation will cost you under 10 Euros and is well worth the price if you have ever tried to book a room in Amsterdam by yourself. Once you have settled on the hotel you will be asked to pay for the full bill at the VVV office. The only down side is that you don't get to see the hotel that you are given but again, it's well worth the convenience. VVV offices can be found at Schiphol Airport and in front of Amsterdam's Central Station (walk out the front door and head straight and to the left). You can also use any other VVV office in the country to book as we did from delft.
