GetYourGuide traveler – NetherlandsOctober 24, 2023 – Verified booking
Excellent. Disadvantages: -only valid for 48 hours and then extended relatively expensive -website and app not updated so that renovation of the specified meeting point was not listed and we stood in front of a closed door and had to walk all the way back to a point we had already been close to. Time loss: 30 minutes

Trip was fine, nice city for 2 days. However, the card is mainly for using public transport. Anyway, there was so little checking that we didn't even need it. We got discounts at some museums, but they had other discounts that we didn't get, so that was a shame. Would I recommend it, yes, but then you have to check carefully whether you are really going to use public transport and the discounts.

It's good if you are visiting a lot of museums and using the public transport very often. For short stay in the city it's not worth it because it's nice to walk around the city and there is no need to use the public transport too often. More discounts in the restaurants would be nice.
