Amsterdam Tours
There are many different tours in Amsterdam
to choose from
This well planned city has a lot more to offer than its ‘red-light
district’, not the least many great museums, libraries, and restaurants. You'll find a lot of Amsterdam tours
catering for different tastes.
When we talk about Amsterdam, Netherlands, it is very hard not to
imagine misty cafes and scantily clothed women moving provocatively in windows with red lights. Many of the
travelers from across the world return to this ultimate city of "sin" because of these sights alone, creating their
own 'Amsterdam tours'. Most of these sights are busting with tales of the unexpected and if you get chances to
visit the place, I’m sure that you will also create your own tales to tell, by choosing a few of Amsterdam tours to
explore the city.

Well, Amsterdam is not just about sex and drugs; it has all the great
things that Mother Earth has to offer. The Netherlands has in fact the biggest amount of great museums per square
foot than anywhere else in the world. If you take a tram ride 10 minutes from the heart of the city, you can
overwhelm yourself with those narrow streets occupied with nothing else other than the cyclist and a car every now
and then. The city is in fact so quite, but interesting.
Things to See in Amsterdam
The greatly planned city of Amsterdam is one of the few cities in the
world where the people, the streets and the atmosphere are an attraction in themselves. It is in fact well-known
throughout the world as the sole city where marijuana and hashish are sold legally. And, the worldly
known Red Light
District is just as much an attraction as a favorite hub for young
men full of testosterone to go at night.
But as mentioned earlier, there is far much more to the city than
drugs and prostitutes or sex. The city has long been considered as the "Venice of the North" because it was built
on a cobweb of canals. You can greatly see most of the city from a canal boat, and from there you’ll surely
appreciate the unique architecture that Amsterdam has long been proud to offer.
Furthermore, Amsterdam is heaving with a culture. It has a lot of
great museums and libraries. Choose one of Amsterdam tours and visit these great museums. Of all the interesting
museums in the city of Amsterdam, the Rijksmuseum, Anne Frank Museum and Van Gogh Museums are names not to be
missed.
For doing something really different, is your are a sporting fan,
visit the stadium of Amsterdam's famous football club
Ajax.

Where to Eat in Amsterdam
When you stroll around in the city of Amsterdam, you’ll surely find a
high volume of restaurants. Creat one of your own Amsterdam tours by visiting some of these excellent eating
places. As commonly noted, you can see sandwich boards in front of the many restaurants advertising their daily
specials and from a minute walk down the Damrak, the street facing Central Station, there are some neon lights
saying "pizza".
If you delver further into the city, you can find the Damstraat, the
street on Dam Square, also peppered with eateries. Further down again towards Leidseplen, the Leidsekruisstraat and
Leidsetraat have their good share of restaurants too. It is necessary to note however that the streets mentioned
earlier are located in some of the city’s most touristy areas. So, if you wish to steer clear of such commercial
centers, you have the chance to visit the Jordaan as some of the city’s coolest restaurants are found
there.
In case you prefer to eat out in a restaurant beyond your budget
during your tour, there are also some fast food outlets all over Amsterdam where you can get pizzas, chips or
kebabs. However, just be careful when asking for mayonnaise on your French fries for they will be completely
drowned.
