I amsterdam City Card: Museum Tickets & Transport

About this experience

Museum tickets in Amsterdam with one pass: the I amsterdam City Card If you are looking for museum tickets in Amsterdam and want to see more than one collection, the I amsterdam City Card is the simplest way to book. One digital pass gives you access to more than 70 museums, attractions and experiences, unlimited GVB public transport and a canal cruise, for 24, 48, 72, 96 or 120 hours. You activate it on your phone when you are in Amsterdam and ready to start. Entry to the Rembrandt House Museum is included, and some options add audio guides for the top landmarks you visit. Which Amsterdam museums are included? The card covers many of the city's best-known museums, including the Rijksmuseum, the Moco Museum, the Stedelijk Museum, the H'ART Museum and the Rembrandt House Museum, along with smaller museums and historic houses across the city. Beyond the museums you also get: Landmarks such as Madame Tussauds, the Amsterdam Dungeon and ARTIS Amsterdam Royal Zoo Canal cruises and bus tours with operators including Blue Boat Company, LOVERS Canal Cruises and Amsterdam Circle Line Activities such as Fun Forest and The Ultimate Flight Experience, plus a self-guided food tour A 24-hour bike rental Discounts at the Heineken Experience, Our House, the Upside Down Amsterdam and more The Van Gogh Museum and the Anne Frank House are not part of the card, so book those separately if they are on your list. Each attraction can be visited once with the card. Public transport and canal cruise Unlimited travel is included on all GVB trams, buses, metro lines and ferries within the Amsterdam city area, on both day and night routes, so you can move between Museumplein, the canal ring and Amsterdam Noord without buying separate fares. Transport to and from Schiphol Airport is not included. A canal cruise is part of the pass, and you can join one from several departure points in the city. How the card works and when to book time slots After booking you receive a voucher with your card code. Download the I amsterdam City Card app, add your card with that code, and activate it only when you are in Amsterdam: the clock starts when you scan it at your first attraction or on public transport, then runs for the number of hours you chose. An unactivated card stays valid for one year from purchase. You can transfer a card to a family member or friend in the app, but once transferred it cannot be moved back. Some museums and attractions ask card holders to reserve a time slot in advance. Make those reservations in the app or on the venue's official website before you go, especially for popular museums at weekends. If you need help, the I amsterdam Store is on the north side of Amsterdam Centraal station at De Ruijterkade 28 B to D. Is the I amsterdam City Card worth it? The card pays off when you plan two or three paid museums a day and use trams to get between them. If you only want one museum, a single ticket such as the NEMO Science Museum or the National Maritime Museum may be better value. For more ideas, browse all Amsterdam tickets and attractions.
