After, grab a coffee or beer at one of the city’s café’s and sit back to people watch. With its distinguished architecture and canals throughout the city, Amsterdam is a great town to simply wander. Walk through the city’s Red Light District with other tourists or browse one of the city’s open-air markets. Or explore the city on the preferred mode of transportation – a bike.

A rental home in the city will allow you to easily explore the region surrounding Amsterdam. If there’s too much bike traffic in the city, take a guided ride to the countryside where you’ll see postcard-perfect windmills and, depending on the season, tulips. Stop along the way at a cheese factory and pick up some authentic Holland gouda. Visit the idyllic village of Volandam, where you can shop for souvenirs to take back home. Visit a wooden shoe factory and pick up some wooden clogs. Or take a train ride out to The Hague, Netherland’s capital, home to the world’s court, and close to beach resort towns.
