I love the video! Notice that is nowadays also possible to check-in and check-out simply using contactless payments (smartphone/bank card), making it all much easier for tourists.
Thanks you, very informative. It's been about 15 years since I last used public transport and so much has changed. I can't even remember how it used to work back then
thank you ...very important information to travel
Thanks for very nice video and information of this transport system of amsterdam really uncomplicates and gives an idea of how it works!!! Nice video!
Very helpful. Thanks for the video
Wow this brings back memories from trip there in 2017. Was there for 6 nights. We purchased an iAmsterdam card which included transit and tons of discounts at museums and attractions ( highly recommended ). Public transport in Amsterdam so easy to use and straightforward. I'm a public transport user at home so adapting was no problem at all. Used train from airport and buses and trams within the city. We were especially fond of the trams. Cheers from Vancouver 🇨🇦
Ik vind deze video echt prima! Ik ben voor het laatst in 2015 naar NL geweest op vakantie en ik heb een beetje vergeten hoe de publieke transport systeem nog werkte, dus dit heeft het nogmaals wat makkelijker gemaakt voor mijn opkomende NL reis :D
Thank you for another great informative video. It is good to see so many people using the public transit system. I wish we had a system here as good as the system in the Netherlands.
Thank you, its so useful

Dank je :D
Mooie video 🐨🐨
Miss amderstam so. Much been many times 👍👍👍
Good job 👍
Very interesing
Btw this is how public transport works all over the Netherlands... From Groningen to Maastricht to Vlissingen and Den Helder.
Geweldig! Helemaal afgekeken. Waarom stapte je trouwens niet in de IC Direct?
Martin Pintamalli die was me net iets te vol
cool
Bits of very helpful information, though much of the video is just walking from place to place and the lens distortion can make it confusing.
Wooow awesome nibble in this place nice
In amsterdam kan je veel makkelijker zwartrijden dan in rotterdam in rotterdam lopen conducteurs door tram en bij die tram/metro ding kan je geewoon instappn zonder in te checken
StanFR12 010 Suri dat klopt maar de gewone trams hebben conducteurs en daar mag je alleen bij bestuurder of conducteur instappen
En de normale metrostations hebben poortjes
Grappig, mijn ervaring is dat het in Rotterdam en Den Haag juist veel makkelijker is dan in Amsterdam, omdat je in Amsterdam altijd bij een conducteur of bestuurder in moet stappen (de enkeling, die de hekjes naar achteren trekt, daargelaten). In Rotterdam en Den Haag kun je echter overal instappen en is het een koud kunstje. Over het gemak van zwartrijden in Randstadrail ga ik het niet eens hebben... dat is geen kunst.
very good!
do I need check out with "Amsterdam Travel Ticket"?
HyperlinkSE yes always
Thank you
where's the bus tutorial to and from Schiphol Airport? i remember attempting it a decade ago but didn't really know what and where i was going. would like to see hwat it looks like again from someone who knows hwat their doin'.
Very good video, and very helpful, with all the ways to travel in Amsterdam. Thank you! But I just have some questions for you: I'm planning to use the Amsterdam and Region travel ticket, as I'll be in Amsterdam for just 3 days. Can I use the IC Direct to travel between Schiphol an Amsterdam with the ticket? Do I need to check in and out, or just in? And also, on the train, when there are no gates, do we also need to check out? Thanks.
As far as i could read the website, yes you can use Intercity Direct between Schiphol Airport and Amsterdam Centraal(it's also a regular train, except between Rotterdam Centraal and Schiphol Airport, you need a supplement for that part). Yes you always need to check in and out at the scanners inside the tram and bus, train and metro have gates where you check in and out, and train metro can have scanners on the platform to check in or out when you have a cross platform change between 2 operators, and sometimes there are no gates located at the exit of stations, then you just use the scanners at the locations(mostly gates in Amsterdam) and always somebody around to answer you questions. But remember you always need to check in when you start your journey and check out when you leave, and check in and out when you switch from operator(such as, Amstelstation and Duivendrecht)!
I just have one last question. On trams, the green button is to stop the tram and open the door, or just to open the door? Thank you very much again. Travel in Amsterdam will be much easier!!
MiPiano both
If you press will driving you activate stop
And door will open at the stop
Otherwise you can just open the door at the stop
And to enhance that answer: the button to open the doors will flash green once you press while the tram is still moving, letting you know your button-press worked.
Thanks again for your help! I think I am now ready to travel in Amsterdam. Looking forward to my trip there...
Hello and thank you for this !! I am visiting Amsterdam next month and your video was really helprfull for my planning
I have two questions if you or anybody else know... do you know if the machines give change ? and also what is with the ov chipcard? is it worth it for 2-3 days?
for 2-3 days just get some day tickets
@@ov_079 thats what i did thank you :)
@@eatsmylife_ No problem, hope you enjoyed the stay in this nice country!
Interresting video! But always checking in & out seems so complicated.
And that's why we got that system, as it's thought of by the transport companies. It benefits them and it serves the user only very little convenience. We are also one of the few countries in the world where tapping in and out is done on moving vehicles as well. Almost every other country has a flat fare on trams and buses. Ofcourse, we also wanted to annoy customers and shake every penny we can from them, so you need to tap in and out...
I'm sorry if this sounds very cynical, but this is how I think of this system...
It is not
Really? Read up on the matter and find how 'the customer' eventually ended up at the end of the list of all the things this 'system' should be able to do. Then read about other systems on this planet: only very few of similar systems feature tapping in AND out on vehicles, where tapping in and out on platforms is rather common. Really, there is no other company in the world where the customer is served in such a bad manner, pays a criminal amount of money for the card alone (which is around 5 times the total cost of everything involved in fabricating it) and has to go through quite the hassle if you want your money back when something has gone wrong outside of your control.
Het werkt een stuk beter dan al die strippenkaarten en zones uitrekenen. Geen gezeur meer met kaartjes kopen. Dit systeem werkt ontzettend goed en is ontzettend makkelijk te gebruiken. En vergeten uit te checken is tegenwoordig bijna onmogelijk door poortjes en het extreme aantal waarschuwingen. Ik zie geen nadelen van dit systeem.
'Geen gezeur meer met kaartjes kopen?' Hoe vaak zit jij in een Amsterdamse tram? Ga eens kijken op CS en de Dam om te zien wat voor massa's daar de tram bestormen en allemaal een kaartje moeten kopen. Ga dan ook nog eens kijken hoevelen er met treinkaartjes een tram in willen, er mensen met GVB-kaartjes Connexxion of EBS-bussen in willen... Er is echt níet over nagedacht.
Een systeem dat nog steeds foute prijzen berekent (en nee, dat is geen uitzondering) omdat er ergens iets mis gaat, noem ik geen 'ontzettend goed werkend' systeem. Ik ben niet voor niets weer gestopt met reizen per OV bus zodra ik dat weer kon.
Vergeten uit te checken gebeurt anders (zeker onder toeristen) nog regelmatig in Amsterdam: het is ook niet uit te leggen dat een kaartje dat een uur geldig is onmiddelijk ongeldig verklaard wordt zodra je een keer vergeet uit te checken.
Ik zie helaas nog altijd heel veel nadelen aan het systeem, helaas, maar dat is niet anders.
Don't forget the minimum balance of OV chipkaart of €20 in train and €4 in bus and tram (some occasion €10)!!
thank you for the video. i have a question. can i check in/out with a ticket? or only with the card. i am planning on using the NS app and it shows the time of departure, what happen if I messed the bus/train? can i go with the next one? also i heard the NS app does not cover all operators? what should i do when buying a ticket with the app and there is another operator (cross platform) is it included in the ticket? last question(sorry it is my first time there and we are like 7-8 ppl no other way only public transport) is it enough to pay and buy the ticket online in the app or do i need to take the paper one? thanks to whomever answer this. appreciated!
Yes you can check in and out with a disposable ticket or the QR-code from your phone from the NS-app.
If you miss your train, metro, tram, bus or ferry etc. You can just take the other one as long as you travel between the 2 destinations, in the right direction, such as a dat ticket, one way, return etc.
If you buy with the app or at vending machines the ticket is included for all operators you changes trains from between the 2 stations.
You can just buy your tickets in the app
You can open gates with the QR-scanners at the gates, conductors will scan your tickets with their QR-scanners
Have a good journey
@@RailPublicTransport thank you so much for the quick reply 🌹 I was confused because heard there were different ticket to different operators but in the app it seams only one ticket. Thank you I really appreciate it🙏
Waneer je je eigen ov kaart gebruikt als voorbeeld ticket in de metro station bij de machine XD tevens klopt het niet hellemaal want onder komt enkel kaartjes dus geen ov pasjes en natuurlijk geen persoonlijke ov kaarten daarintegen ov kaarten komen uit de gleuf rechts boven het scherm XD ik weet ook wel dat jij dat weet en dat je het puur als voorbeeld deed aangezien je dan geen apart ticked hoeft e bestellen aangezien je toch met korting reist lol enjoying tje vids keep it up
Is it possible to buy unlimited weekly tickets on the trams ?
1:01 does a Anonym ov chipkaart is yellow or blue ?
Yellow is personal
Blue is anonymous
Hello, can you also get to Zaandam with the GVB-daytickets?
No you can't
GVB has no services in Zaandam
Only a ferry but you have to buy a ticker over there
@@RailPublicTransport Ok, thanks for your information.
Thank you for the info but, you didn`t mention prices of tickets, how long they last for. Is it possible to buy say a weekly unlimited ticket ? Or, what multiples they come in ? Can i buy a day ticket that has unlimited travel ? Can tickets be interchangeable for buses/trams ?
well, here are some answers: train tickets generally last till 4 am the next day. There are no weekly unlimited tickets, only daily ones (and at 55 euro, those aren't cheap). For public travel in cities, it generally is possible to buy multi day tickets (1, 3 or 5 days at least) that will be valid in all the modes of public transport a city has (bus, tram, metro and/ or light rail).
Single train fare from Amsterdam Airport to Amsterdam central is 5 euro 60. Compare that to the 60 euro a taxi will generally charge you for that same trip.
@@RichardRenes Thank you.
ok but how do you use a toilet in The Netherlands..#1..or #2..or should i go on the floor of the train?
Chad Simmons there are toilets in all NS trains except SLT Sprinters and SGM Sprinters 2 coaches
where can i buy ticket for 397 bus from schiphol airport?
Inside the bus
Great info.. but damn... get some camera stabilization.... bleh!
What happened if we forget to check in/out?
You can get a fine.
Hello I have some Q’s about the Train ? If I have an OV chipcard do I have to set in tipup seats only or I can set in 2nd class seats no problem ? Do I have to buy another ticket for 2nd or 1st class or it depends on how much money do I have in my chipcard ? Could you please give me every details you have about this matter and if you have an advise please tell me I’m all ears.. sorry for my poor English.
Second class is for all the blue seats in the train, so yes the second class chairs as well as the tip up seats.(second class is standard)
Second class is standard, if you want a first class ticket it will cost more, you can also load that product to your OV-Chipcard at the yellow vending machines.
@@RailPublicTransport so if I have an OV-chipcard I can set in the 2nd class seats, only the 1st class seat will cost me more? Yes?..
And as you say if I want the 1st class seat I can load it from the yellow vending machine ?
Am I right?
@@I_Snook yes the first class seat costs more
But you have to buy the ticket in advance
Yes thats right you can buy a disposable ticket or load it in a plastic personal ov chip card
@@RailPublicTransport Thank you so so much.. You make it easy for me.. Much appreciated. God bless you.
Is it just me or is the text at the bottom weird to read
Nice a video not will be next
I would like to see a similar video "Amsterdam for the disabled". I need a walking device, Rollator, and can't use stairs or escalators.
Luckely there are many elevators around here, shouldnt be hard to find one!
Heel mistig!
12:10 what are the little gates for?
Those gates are because the doors work in on way, you have entrance doors en exit doors, the exit doors have those gates to prevent sneaking in without checking in at the driver or tram conductor
@@RailPublicTransport ahh nice idea 👍
Maar als je metro 51 ben je sneler
If you want to get super dizzy watch this video! :/
Can I just buy an OV-Chipkaart and load it with 60 Euros, instead of having to buy tickets from vending machines for each time I want to board the tram or trains.
Be My Muse yes you can but only a plastic ov-chip card no disposable one
Can I use the anonymous OV-Chipkaart?
Yes you can. Just load the money on the card at one of the shown yellow stations and you are set! Use the NS Reisplanner app to plan your route and find the price.
Another useful app that covers the entire public transport system of the Netherlands is 9292OV
Yes you can, you can use the yellow NS Vending machines or grey GVB vending machines to buy and load the card and the yellows stations for only topping up
The NS Reisplanner Xtra app is great for only the train and also an alternative to google maps, i would rather use google maps instead of 9292OV because thats not the best app here in The Netherlands
Ok thanks. Liked and subbed
They have third class GVB transport system
wish i was born dutch
or everywhere like this
Bad video, filmed far from the screen of the machine, it was not useful for those who need to read the content of the buttons.
Whoever did your titling needs to go back to school. CAUSE and BECAUSE do not mean the same at all. That would be like using DRIJVEN instead of BEDRIJVEN in Dutch.
I’ve never heard anyone say drijven meaning bedrijven, but I heard a lot of people say cause instead of because.
@@gabrielbrouwer Then you are listening to the wrong people. English speakers don't do that unless it's in a song or poetry for effect and even then it would most likely be written as "cos" or " 'cos" and it would certainly never be used as you have used it in a crawling title on a video that would expect to be taken seriously.
Put "cause meaning" into Google search and see if you can find references to "cause" being a substitute for "because". I have just done that and I can tell you that you won't find any.
And finally, if you ever want to write an English word without its prefix then you should replace the missing letters with an apostrophe, so you would write abbreviated "because" as " 'cause ", to distinguish it from the real word "cause", but trust me, you don't do that in a serious title on a video, since it would imply that you are trying to be flippant and not be taken seriously.
In the English speaking word we don't have a bunch of tax-payer funded sages who change the language from time to time, like you have in Dutch.
Policing the use of the English language is left to the people who speak it, which includes you. People who misuse the English language, like Donald Trump in his Tweets, are mercilessly called out through public ridicule.
I'd like you to think about South Africa for a moment. The English written and spoken by native English speakers in South Africa is identical to that spoken in the rest of the English speaking world. The same cannot be said for the Dutch used there. Yet both groups have been in South Africa for about the same period of time.
Why is there this difference? Primarily because in The Netherlands you hand over the responsibility for controlling the language to a small group of people who feel a responsibility to make totally unnecessary changes to your language viz. CADEAU = KADO. This makes the language spoken and written in The Netherlands substantially different to that used in South Africa. Whereas English speakers can read and understand plays and poetry written by William Shakespeare more than 400 years ago. Why the difference? Because we don't let people mess with our language.
The English language belongs to the people who speak it and it is those people, not some out-of-touch bunch of academics, that police it and manage it.
So it doesn't matter if you are Gabriel Brouwer or Donald Trump, if you step out of line, somebody is probably going to tell you.
Remember that the reason you are titling this video in English and not Dutch is not for me, I can understand both, but to give the title the widest audience and that includes many people who are not native English speakers and could easily be confused by your incorrect use of the English language. So for their sake, if not for mine, you should be striving to title your videos with the most correct English possible.
Groetjes uit Frankrijk!
It's pretty shitty, IMO
