Maximum Amsterdam

The capital city Amsterdam is Netherlands' poster city, and it's easy to see why. Walk down its cobbled lanes, cycle through its many atmospheric districts or hop on board a canal boat; and explore some of the finest museums in the world, sink into the relaxed and laid-back culture, and feel ensconced by the famous Dutch quality of gezellig or cosiness.

History buffs, make your way to the Anne Frank Museum. Walk through the Secret Annex, where the family and others spent years hiding from the Nazis. Don't leave without catching a glimpse of Anne's original diary that was later converted into the bestselling novel.

Art lovers, get ready to be spoilt for choice! Whatever your pick - Van Gogh, Rembrandt or Vermeer, Amsterdam has it all. Spend time hopping between the Van Gogh Museum, Rijksmuseum and the Museum Het Rembrandthuis. Later, catch some sunshine in the magical Vondelpark as you unwind after a long and satisfying day.
