Things to do in Amsterdam
Step back in time at the Anne Frank House - get your tickets early (sales open six weeks in advance). They sell out fast.
Take a relaxing cruise on the canals. My favorite company to book with is Pureboats Amsterdam. Enjoy prosecco and cheese while getting a history of the city.
Take a morning run with Go! Running Tours and see the city while breaking a sweat!
Head out of town for a tulip bicycle tour (spring season)
Don't miss a Genever tasting at Wynand Focknik.
Walk through Vondelpark and soak in the scenes.
Wander the vibrant Jordaan neighborhood with its charming streets and cozy cafes.
Make a stop at the Van Gogh Museum.
