Amsterdam GVB Public Transport Pass Tickets
The Amsterdam GVB Public Transport Pass gives you unlimited travel on the city's GVB trams, buses, metros and ferries for 24 to 168 hours. Instead of buying a single ticket for every ride, you choose a pass of one to seven days, add it to your phone and hop on and off as often as you like. It is the simplest way to get around Amsterdam as a visitor, whether you are heading to the museums, exploring the canal belt or staying out late on a night bus.
The pass also covers Bus 369 between Sloterdijk station and Schiphol Airport, which runs every 15 minutes, so you can reach the airport without a separate ticket. GVB routes cover Amsterdam as well as Diemen, Duivendrecht, Amstelveen, Schiphol Airport and Weesp.
What's Included in Your GVB Day Ticket
Unlimited travel on all GVB trams, GVB buses (including night buses), GVB metros and GVB ferries
Bus 369 from Sloterdijk to Schiphol Airport, every 15 minutes
A digital pass delivered by email, ready to add to Apple Wallet or the GVB app
Unlimited changes between lines for the full length of your pass
Optional upgrade: a self-guided Amsterdam audio guide covering 100+ attractions in English, German, French, Italian and Spanish
Good to know: the GVB ferries across the IJ behind Centraal Station are free for foot passengers anyway, so the real value of the pass is unlimited tram, bus and metro travel.
Choose 1 to 7 Days of Unlimited Tram, Bus and Metro Travel
Pick the option that matches your stay: 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144 or 168 hours. Each option is also available with the audio guide added. A short city break usually suits the 2-day or 3-day pass, while a full week in Amsterdam is covered by the 7-day pass. Because you never have to top up or buy single tickets, the longer passes work well if you plan to use trams and the metro several times a day.
How Activation and Validity Work
Your voucher with the link to your pass is emailed instantly after booking. Add the pass to Apple Wallet using that link, then scan the QR code at the reader when you board any GVB tram, bus, metro or ferry. Always scan when you get on and when you get off.
The pass is activated at the time slot you choose at checkout and stays valid for the number of 24-hour periods you selected. For example, a 48-hour pass that starts at 3pm on Monday is valid until 3pm on Wednesday. The pass is personal and can only be used by one traveller, so book one pass per person. Children under 4 travel free on public transport.
What's Not Included
This is a GVB pass, so it does not cover regional buses run by Connexxion, EBS or Syntus, or NS (Dutch railway) trains. That includes the NS train between Schiphol Airport and Amsterdam Centraal; use Bus 369 from Sloterdijk instead if you want your airport journey covered.
Getting Around Amsterdam's Top Sights
With unlimited trams you can reach Museumplein for your Van Gogh Museum entry tickets, then ride back to the centre for an Amsterdam canal cruise. On a rainy afternoon, the Van Gogh & Rembrandt immersive experience is an easy indoor option. For more ideas, see all things to do in Amsterdam.
