The tips on biking and the detailed itineraries make it super easy to navigate and enjoy every part of Amsterdam. Definitely a must-have for both first-time visitors and seasoned travelers!

A Refreshing Travel Guide Beyond Tulips

Beyond Tulips in Amsterdam" is a refreshing departure from typical travel guides, offering a captivating exploration of Amsterdam's lesser-known treasures. This guidebook goes beyond the clichés, inviting readers to uncover hidden gems nestled within the city's diverse neighborhoods and cultural landscape. From secret gardens to off-the-beaten-path museums and culinary delights beyond stroopwafels, each chapter unfolds with rich detail and insider tips.

A Treasure Trove of Information!

This delightful travelogue begins with a brief history of how Amsterdam started out as a modest fishing village and grew into a global cultural icon. It contains a lot of good information on how to travel smart and offers humorous yet wise suggestions such as, “Dutch weather has a sense of humor. You should too” and “Even the windmills take the time to spin. You should take some time to slow down too,” and my favorite, “Pickpockets think it’s their civic duty to keep you on your toes.” I also like the admonition to not “miss the chance to turn your day upside down at the Upside-Down Museum.” That is definitely one place I want to visit!

Beyond Tulips in Amsterdam starts high with the museums of Anne Frank and Vincent Van Gogh and ends low with the Red-Light District and coffee houses that have nothing to do with coffee. This informative travel book has something for everybody!

I loved this audiobook!

I am a very active traveler and love to find out about new places. Amsterdam has been on my travel wishlist for a while and when I saw this audio guide, I snapped it right away! When I finally go to Amsterdam, I will turn on this audio again and walk through the places mentioned there. I think it's an amazing way to travel!

Very pleasant and detailed

This is a great overview of Amsterdam; what's there, places to visit and experiences to have. The narration is pleasant but a touch robotic I would say. However, it's still done really well and there is certainly plenty of detail and advice about what to see and the choices you have, the currency and way to purchase things, museums, restaurants and cafes and of course the famous things like the Cannabis use and red light district. A good balanced auto book.

Amazing guide for the Netherlands!

This Amsterdam travel guide is truly immersive and informative—it even includes a handy PDF with pictures! Covering everything from landmarks to hidden gems, it's been invaluable in planning our family trip. While the narrator could be improved, it doesn't detract too much from the overall experience. With this guide in hand, my family and I feel much more prepared and excited for our upcoming adventure. Highly recommended!

The guide is meticulously organized, making it easy to follow along and find the sections most relevant to your interests. The content is comprehensive, covering a wide range of topics from historical landmarks and cultural hotspots to local cuisine and hidden gems off the beaten path.

One of the standout features of this guide is its ability to uncover lesser-known treasures that truly capture the essence of Amsterdam.
