Amsterdam is one of the world's most liveable and visually distinctive cities — a place of 17th-century canal houses, world-class museums on a single street, and a cycling culture so complete that bikes outnumber people. The Golden Age wealth that built the city still lives in its extraordinary art collections, merchant architecture, and the quiet canal-side atmosphere that makes an afternoon here feel genuinely unlike anywhere else.

Don't miss
Rent a bike from MacBike or Star Bikes (€14/day) on day one and never use the tram — cycling the Jordaan's smaller canals (Bloemgracht, Egelantiersgracht) at 7am before the city wakes is the single best Amsterdam experience, completely free and impossible by any other means.
Book the Rijksmuseum at least a week ahead (skip-the-line is essential, €22.50) — go straight to the Gallery of Honour for the Night Watch, then work backwards through the Delftware and Silver rooms; the museum app with audio is genuinely excellent.
Eat stroopwafel at the Noordermarkt Saturday market bought hot off the iron from the stroopwafel maker who sets up near the church entrance — the fresh version bears no resemblance to the packaged supermarket version and costs €2.
Drink jenever (Dutch gin) at Wynand Fockink, a tasting room hidden in an alley behind the Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky that has been serving from the same barrels since 1679 — order the aged 10-year jonge jenever and a beer chaser; it costs less than a cocktail bar and the history is extraordinary.
