This is a much cheaper alternative than a taxi. I made the mistake of taking a taxi not knowing about the awesome public transportation my first visit back in 2013 and that was about 75 eu for the taxi versus a few euros? No brainer there. If they have cancelled trains like what happened to me my last visit in 2019 then you can always take a bus for even less
Definetely! And if trains are cancelled, NS company arrange service buses to that directions, if they can not, they have to refund or send the travellers by taxi. However as you said Buses are also available just out of Schipol Plaza and cheaper than the train.
XD XD XD XD XD XD Tyror XD ja me too but remind that, it's funny
Just wonderful. Always so very helpful. You’re the best.
Very useful and interesting video Murat! Thanks
Great tip!
Murat, you are a godsend. Thank you for this enlightening video.👍🏻🌷✨
You are very welcome Rhiannon 🤗😍
This was very useful! Thank you. I'm visiting for the first time soon and was actually a little worried about going through this for the first time 😂 💚🇳🇱
So the most challenging thing is done! 😁
I always took taxi to central this is good info for next time I travel to amsterdam🙉🤟
Good informative video Murat. I always just joined the long queue at the ticket office but will use the app in future.
I think it's even dearer to buy your ticket from the office as the last time we bought them from ticket office there was 1 euro service charge on top of ticket price.
@@scooterspringsteen3544 And even worse: you also pay a euro surcharge for using the machines, which I consider to be asbolutely ridiculous. Only an online-ticket saves you the surcharge. And DEFINITElY avoid the blue ticket-machines to buy a trainticket from if you see all the yellow machines are busy with people waiting in line, as you'll pay another euro surcharge on top of the 1 euro surcharge, just for using the blue machine...
Buying train tickets is so diffult from NS app despite I have bought from it many times. It can be much easier to make use of. Thanks for giving some information about traveling on
train in Amsterdam.
When you arrive at Amsterdam Central walk ten minutes to the “Grey Area” coffee shop. Best weed in city and not the commercial weed normally sold in tourist areas.
It's not just one euro, how much pain and stress is this going to save! I've long forgotten how this all works. I remember really struggling to get a tram ticket at Centraal Station as well, the tips at the end of the video will really help me next time round.
I had experienced the same things years ago so decided to make this video. Glad it helped 🤗 Thanks!
Murat, thank you for this video of the arrival at Schiphol Airport & then how to take the train to Amsterdam Centrum. It was so helpful & practical. I feel much more at ease about my upcoming trip. If I need more Euros when I arrive should I exchange $ to Euros at the airport or in the Centrum? Thanks again, Murat! 😀
You"re welcome! Its better if you change it in the city. But avoid exchange offices, especially Travelex company, their buy/sell spread is the highest. Try bank branches such as Abn Amro, ING, Rabobank etc.
This is a great video. I have screwed this up every time I’ve been there 😆
Thank you! I ll make similar budget friendly videos in time 😁✌
Sono ad Amsterdam ci vediamo per un espresso😉😎
Extremely useful video, thanks a lot! Just one clarification question: during check in/out you just need to scan the QR code of online train ticket using your phone, right? I mean, just to put your phone above the yellow machine (3:37)?
Yes, that s correct. Thanks for your feedback, glad it s helpful ✋
No, you do not need to do anything with a QR-code ticket when arriving at a station without turnstiles like Schiphol. You buy it and just enter the train. When encountering a station closed off by turnstiles, you can always use the QR-code to get in or out, as long as the ticket is valid of course.
@@weeardguy apparently, you are right, thanks! It was exactly how you just wrote, no need to do anything practically. Anyways, I am thankful for this upload it helped me a lot when in Amsterdam
@@serogka1You're welcome. I still feel NS could emphasize this WAY more when people buy a QR-ticket from Schiphol to anywhere else. Schiphol is one of the exceptions when it comes to the lack of turnstiles, thus also having no QR-code scanners at the airport. I basically work there and see a lot of people always try to get a response from the validators with QR-tickets. I really don't understand why don't mention clearly that you do not have to do anything at Schiphol Airport, except for boarding the train (or disembarking in case you are arriving at Schiphol)
Is train an ok option? if you are travelling with two big luggage's? or I need to buy a 1st class ticket to avoid annoying other travelers in the 2nd class? I'm going to Gouda by the way so I need to ride the Intercity train and not the sprinter train.
There are bike vagons on trains and there a spaces up to 4 bikes and wheellchairs, for 2nd class, you can use that space if there is no bike there (but bikes have priority). 1st class is of course better, only a few people use that vagon, sometimes no one. Intercity trains, in the 1st class and in the middle of the vagon, there are some seats with wider space for groups or families. You can be comfortable there, if they are empty at that moment. Or you can just put your luggages to the place between 2 vagons (the area you get in to the train) and stay there.
This is great, I am flying to Amsterdam tomorrow afternoon!! Can I travel to Central station with 1 day visitors travel pass? Do you think buying 1 day pass is valued if I only stay 1 night there ?
Thanks! If you stay only 1 night i think you do not need any pass. Most of the popular spots are in walking distance in Amsterdam 👍
@@Followmytravels thank you so much for your quick response. As you mentioned, I am trying to buy 2 one way train tickets online now. It is greatly appreciated!
