What is the best moment to visit Amsterdam?

The best moment to visit Amsterdam really depends on what you would like to do
in Amsterdam!

If you are looking to do a city trip when the weather is nice, then the best
moment to visit Amsterdam would be between April and September. During this
period the weather in Amsterdam is the most pleasant.

If you want to see tulips, visit the city in the spring! To avoid mass crowds,
consider to vitit Amsterdam in spring and autumn. To feel the magical vibe of
Amsterdam, visit the city in December.

If you are looking for cheap hotels in Amsterdam, go in the low season. Between
February and April, you will find more affordable accommodations and flight
tickets to Amsterdam. 

What time is it in the netherlands?

The current time in Amsterdam is: GMT+1 (winter time). In the Netherlands, the
time zone is CET (Central European Time). 

In New York, it is 6 hours earlier than in the Netherlands. Meaning that if it
is 3 o’clock in the afternoon here (3pm), it is 9 o’clock in the morning (9am)
in New York.

We use summer and winter time here in the Netherlands. 

What is considered as typical Dutch food?

A typical Dutch dish would be: ‘Boerenkool met worst’ (mashed potatoes with kale
and sausage).

However, here in the Netherlands, we are more famous for our snacks and
finger-foods. We would really recommend you trying ‘Poffertjes’ (small pancake),
‘Bitterballen’ (bite-size deep-fried beef stew balls), and ‘Stroopwafels’ (our
famous cookies).

What is the currency in the Netherlands?

We use Euro as currency in the Netherlands. For the conversion of foreign
currency, you can go to Amsterdam currency offices in the city or at Schiphol
airport. Be aware that only some supermarkets in the city accept credit cards
(American Express / Mastercard / Visa). European debit cards will usually work
in the Netherlands. 

Is Amsterdam an expensive city?

In general, Amsterdam is considered to be a relatively expensive European city.
Accommodation will be a significant part of your travel costs.

However, there are ways to save money while visiting Amsterdam! Such as staying
in a cheaper area of the city, buying food from supermarkets, and using public
transportation.

It’s also worth doing some research and planning ahead to find deals and
discounts on activities, attractions, and other things to do in the city. On
Amsterdam Insights, you can read all about this!

An average meal in a decent restaurant in the city center for dinner will cost
you around 14-20 euros per person (drinks not included). Ordering a (small) beer
at a terrace will cost you around 3.50 euros. By American standards, Amsterdam
is usually considered to be affordable. Tipping is not mandatory in Amsterdam
(however, it is really appreciated though).  

Good things to know before you come: Amsterdam is the most expensive city in the
world for street parking (7.50€ per hour).
