Overall rating

If you’re headed to Amsterdam; have plans to explore the city and use public transport this is a must buy. The convenience of being able to hop on and hop off the trams, buses and ferries is fantastic and the tram and bus network are second to none. We were able to use the buses, trams and ferries for the entire duration of our visit - including travel late into the evening without further charge. The added benefit of being able to jump on the bus at the airport was fantastic and for us, arriving after the pick up van closed (at 6 / 6.30pm) we were still able to show the QR code and get into the city, enabling us to collect the passes the next day.

Easy to use. Just to note that it is important to collect your physical card from one of the main stations in the city before you can use the transport systems.

One must buy this one . It allows you to enjoy the public transportation unlimited to Explore the city on short trip .

Very friendly and helpful staff, they explain everything very clearly and can answer any questions you may have.

Easy to pick up tickets. Great value for money. Friendly, helpful staff
