Why Amsterdam?
Amsterdam's canal ring, the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh, and the Jordaan's cafés are all within a stroll of each other. It's one of Europe's best day-trip cities precisely because you waste no time in transit.
To and from Amsterdam Schiphol
Schiphol has arguably Europe's easiest airport link: direct trains to Centraal up to eight times an hour, plus night trains — you're on a canal within half an hour of the gate.
