8 days in Amsterdam Itinerary

Known as one of the greatest small cities in the world, Amsterdam charms visitors with its cool and cozy atmosphere.

Get outdoors at Hoge Veluwe National Park and Oudemirdumer Klif. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at The Jordaan and Room Escape Games. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Amsterdam: Pitch & Putt Golf Koudum (in Koudum), Strand Lemmer (in Lemmer) and De Hege Gerzen (in Oudemirdum). There's lots more to do: get a dose of the wild on Calidris Birdsafaries, identify plant and animal life at Oisterwijkse Bossen en Vennen, take an in-depth tour of Panorama Mesdag, and stroll through The Amstel.
