Amsterdam Travel Guide: Flights & Hotels
Netherlands · AMS
Amsterdam's compact canal-ring center, world-class museums like the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum, and easy bike-friendly layout make it a favorite short European break. It also works well as a gateway to the rest of the Netherlands and nearby Belgium.
April brings tulip season around the city and at nearby Keukenhof gardens; late spring through early fall generally has the most pleasant weather. Hotel prices spike noticeably during King's Day (April 27) and tulip season.
