Welcome to the capital of the Netherlands, also known as the city of picturesque canals. Amsterdam is a very rewarding destination all year round with a wide range of cultural activities, unique museums and an international flair that makes the city always lively, but also always cozy. For example, enjoy a visit to the Rijksmuseum first and then enjoy the view over Amsterdam and its surroundings. The ›Amsterdam Lookout‹ viewing platform is the perfect place to do this over a cup of coffee.
You start your weekend in Amsterdam with an extensive city tour. You will see the Central Station (IJmeer side), Java Island, the Muiderpoort city gate, the Waterlooplein flea market, Stopera (music theater and city hall), the Amstel and the Heineken brewery, the museum district, the beautiful south of Amsterdam and the RAI congress center.
In the morning you will visit one of Amsterdam’s newest sights: LOOKOUT, a viewing platform directly on the water opposite Central Station. From here you have a perfect 360 degree view over the whole of Amsterdam. Enjoy it and take the best panoramic photos. After getting an overview of Amsterdam from the lookout, you can now explore the city of canals on your own. Enjoy a stroll through the flower market, visit one of the many interesting museums, or treat yourself to a delicious beer in one of the ›brown cafés‹ (that’s what they call the cozy pubs in the Netherlands) on a canal.
During a canal cruise you will see cozy houseboats, magnificent house facades and the hustle and bustle to the right and left of the canals. You will then start your journey home.
