Dam Square is a great starting point for exploring Amsterdam as it can be found in the heart of the city so it's usually the first port of call for visitors as its got lots to explore.

Amsterdam has over 37 museums so take the time to visit the Museum Quarter where you'll find three of the main museums - Rijksmuseum, Stedelijk Museum and the Van Gogh Museum.

Other top attractions include Magere Brug Bridge, Begijnhof, Vondelpark, Artis Zoo and Anne Frank House. And if your curiosity is getting the better of you, take a walk along Amsterdam's famous Red Light District, it's not for everyone, but it is part of the Amsterdam experience.

Don't pass up the opportunity to see Amsterdam by canal! It's an enjoyable experience and a great way to get a real glimpse of the city. You can take a day cruise on the Canal Bus (which is a hop-on hop-off tour), rent out a canal bike and make your own adventure or opt for something special like a candlelit cruise, a jazz cruise or a dinner cruise.
