amsterdam reality is very small and it is easy to get around on foot but with the bus you get to places where you did not plan to go and you get to know the city you get off at any stop and take it again every half hour and the tickets last 24 hours

The problem at the beginning was that we didn't know where to get on. Without the app we had no clues! In other cities we always quickly found the special stop boards for the hop on hop on hop off! Not so in Amsterdam! Otherwise everything was fine! Andrea F

This tour was excellent value for money and the ability to hop on hop off is great. The buses are very regular so you don’t have to wait long to get on one again after you have stopped to do an experience. Very knowledgeable tour guides, very friendly and polite, this is well worth doing when you visit Amsterdam.
