Amsterdam in 2 days

Two days are enough for Amsterdam: the city is small and holds together around the canals. Day one is the museums on Museumplein, day two is the city itself, from the Anne Frank House to Nieuwmarkt.

The dashed line shows the order of stops, not the path through the streets: the street-level route is built in the app, on foot or by car.

Day 1

Museumplein

The Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum share one square, and together they are most of the day. The Vondelpark begins around the corner, which is where you recover after five hours of painting.

Day 2

Canals and the centre

The Anne Frank House in the morning, with the Westerkerk and its bell tower next door. Then across the canals to Dam square and the Royal Palace, and on towards Nieuwmarkt: a kilometre and a half over roughly twenty bridges.
