City advice
Getting around
Some apps to make travel easy!
Maps.me; This is a route app, where you can download the cards of a country when you are on WIFI. It does give route descriptions, even when you are offline, by using your GPS. So your roaming costs will be a lot lower.
9292.ov; this is the planner of the public transportation in Amsterdam. You can easily put in an start and end and plan your trip.
Uber; the Uber-taxi app. Costs of taking a cab in Amsterdam are pretty high. With Uber it’s cheaper, and you don’t have to use cash to pay.
Getting around
Renting a bike
Then you have that other thing we Dutchies love to do, ride a bike. There are a lot of places in Amsterdam where you can rend a bike. They are easy to use, you don’t have to keep track of time and are totally in control. Just keep in mind, that you are using the public roads, so don’t get to distracted by our beautiful city.
Getting around
An app you can't go without!
Because we live on the other side of the IJ, a canal that splits the North from the rest from Amsterdam you need the 'Pontveer' app. On this app you can see the times of the arrival and departure of the ferry's that will take you across the IJ!
