    Getting TO/AROUND: The most obvious way to get around Amsterdam, is by bicycle! That's how everyone gets around anyway, but only do so if you're confident on a bike, and will feel safe, but they have their own lane, so it should be ok! Otherwise, a quicker way is by using the tram. They are frequent, fast and cheap! They stop running at midnight. You can buy a ticket either from the driver himself, or from a tobacco stall or from the Centraal Station. An example of a trip from Leidseplein to Centraal Station only costed Euro 1.40.
