公共交通機関と無料美術館が利用可能なアムステルダムシティカード

Me and our two teenagers took the opportunity to do Amsterdam and at the same time see Harry Styles. Since none of us have been to Amsterdam before, we thought we would try to maximize our days there. After comparing different options: pay all admissions and travel or use any of the discount cards, we chose 72h with I Amsterdam Card. We felt that we got good value for money and profited from the card compared to buying separately. We planned our days away from home and checked out what activities we absolutely wanted to do and what others were nearby if we had time to spare. Planning makes it possible to do a lot! Do not forget that some attractions must be pre-booked with timeslot, which then sets the framework for the schedule. Our recommendation is a maximum of two of these per day to be flexible. The only downside is probably that the app, which we chose to use, was extremely difficult to scan in public transport. Sometimes worked and sometimes not! Since one will both scan in and out and it malfunctioned all the time, unfortunately, we sometimes opted out of eg tram. It was hard to get help from the staff and at a stop when we desperately tried to check out just drove the driver away before we all got out. For those of us who have found it stressful to be quick in and out, a physical card is recommended. When our cards weren’t thinking, we used regular bank cards that always worked. It seemed to be the QR code scanner that was a bit 50/50. We also missed that buses were not included - all we saw were other kinds of buses than GVB. In conclusion, this card is highly recommended for those who really want to maximize a big city experience but are prepared to plan a bit in advance.

Be sure to get the iAmsterdam code from Viator before trying to activate the ticket. Otherwise, you’ll have end up not being able to access it. Also, I could never figure out how to book a Heineken Experience through the I Amsterdam app.

If you plan to travel and explore about the city using tram, train, or metro, it is worth the savings in your pocket. Free admission to wonderful museums- some you do have to book for free online prior to visiting, but we didn’t find this an issue. The only negative is retrieving the card- it’s very inconvenient to have to physically go to the I Am Amsterdam location in the train station to retrieve it. Online? No, they say you can download the app and then put down the eight digit cc number to have it online and on your phone. Every time I looked at my voucher, there was never an eight digit number. So there we went and the helpful employee there said that unfortunately many people who buy this card through a third-party, never get the numbers sent to them so that they can download it online So- my advice don’t buy from Viator or anyone else and purchase directly from the I Am Amsterdam store.

Reservation registered after payment but activation ticket at the scheduled point not possible because reference of the unknown TripAdvisor ticket in the city card system of the agency "I amsterdam" of the central station.

One Card for all activities is very good. But the APP had an issue on the day we were supposed to go siteseeing. So we had to buy all the entry tickets individually that costed more.

We stayed in Amsterdam for 2 days, so made use of the 48 hour card (90E for 48 hours), which we picked up at the large store in the Central Station. This came with a useful leaflet and a map. As others have said, you need to plan carefully to get full value as some of the attractions are free, some just discounted. We did the calculations and for what we wanted to do this just about made sense financially. However, as we found out what we went to travel to Zaanse Schans, not all buses are created equally; the card gives access to GVB busses and not the Meerplus company which seemed to be the only bus company (we used number 800 which took 20 minutes direct) to go to the windmills (I may be wrong but we did look well and ask several people), this misunderstanding on our part cost 25E. That said, access to the Metro and trams were also included and using a card did make public transport easy. I couldn't book the Heineken Brewery tour through the I Amsterdam weblink, so we had to just turn up and hope there was space (we were lucky) and when booking the Rijksmuseum, I was emailed 'e-tickets' which were only a timeslot confirmation, the City Card still needed to be produced at the entrance, a misunderstanding that was slightly embarrassing. Otherwise the cards were straightforward to use and applied discount at the advertised venues.

Great, but be careful the card only allows you to take buses and trams, not the metro

We opted for the 24hr I am Amsterdam City card thinking it was the best deal as it has free access to the Ruks museum and 69 other main museums and public transport and free canal cruise. We thought we could at least squeeze in to see 3musuems as we started at 8am in Ruks musuem. Took us sometime to get in because the codes from the I am Amsterdam city card weren't scanning in the museum and the staff wasn't able to help cause they had no idea how to fix it either. We were able to suss this out ourselves after googling it The museum was huge and there was so much to see, we ended up spending 4 hours there alone. The ones I wanted to see was the Rembrandt and Van Gogh exhibit which I thought had an extensive display of their works. It didn't. You can only visit this museum or any attraction once for that day unless you buy another ticket. And since most museums here close at 5 or 5:30 that means we won't have enough time to visit any of them unless we skip lunch and soldier on to the next. So that means we weren't able to maximise the value of the I am Amsterdam city card. If you're hotel is far from the museums, this will be helpful to use for public transport. Otherwise, in my opinion, just buy they ticket for the Ruks museum if that's all you'd like to see. It's €25 each and best to spend most of your day there if not then whole day to see everything from top to bottom. Or just purchase tickets for museums you really want to visit while your in Amsterdam. Otherwise, this city card doesn't really give much bang to your buck.

A complete con. Website says access to attractions. The first three we tried to get access to all said we needed to buy tickets and the card only gave us a discount. We also tried the Body World museum and they said it wasn't included at all despite the website saying otherwise. Utter scam and would be impossible to actually save any money. Not transparent at all

We book the card for 5 days and make our life easier. Transportations with Metro within Amsterdam was free, same many good entertainments (This is Holland, Amsterdam Lookout, Ferry Cruise) and museums (Rijksmuseum, Moco, Nemo). Also there is discount for Madame Tussauds, Body worlds and many other museums/entertainments. Same we used the card for all the museums /attractions in Zaanse Schans village. Value for money for those they want to see and do many things,.
