Frankfurt से Amsterdam तक निजी कार स्थानांतरण

Amsterdam is the ideal destination for those who want to move around in a more active way. Funnily, there are way more bikes in Amsterdam than the actual residents, so you won’t have to worry about finding a place to rent a bike.

The capital of the Netherlands is also recognized by the views of its canals, allowing you to not only explore the city on foot or bicycle but also by boat, so it is also the perfect destination for a romantic sightseeing cruise. As you slowly navigate through the canales (combined they are over 62 miles/100 km long!), you will be gifted with some truly scenic views of the city from a different perspective.

While these are just some of the things that characterize Amsterdam, the atmosphere alone is a good enough reason to visit this charming destination. Whether you are planning to explore the main landmarks by bike, go on a cruise in the canal, or observe the city from one of its many cafes (make sure you read our travel tips regarding this), you will surely find something that suits your wanderlust.

Local coffee shop culture

In Amsterdam, there are two types of coffee shops. The ones that are meant for sipping coffee alongside a sweet pastry (we recommend the traditional appeltaart), are known as ‘koffiehuis’, whereas if you see a sign in English saying “Coffee House,” you will enter a place where cannabis is being sold. While it is not legal in the Netherlands, it is, let’s say, tolerated. Taking photos is usually prohibited in coffee shops to respect the privacy of both customers and staff.

Amsterdam is not cheap

If you are looking for a cheap weekend getaway, Amsterdam may not be the best destination. While you can avoid higher prices by booking everything in advance, most things will still be more expensive than on average, compared to other cities in Europe.

From Frankfurt to Amsterdam by train

For a quicker Frankfurt to Amsterdam transfer, you can opt for a train. High-speed train services are provided by Deutsche Bahn and Thalys. To book a high-speed train ticket, look for Intercity Express (ICE) trains. These trains can run at a speed of up to 130 to 186 mi/h (230 to 300 km/h), so the journey time of direct routes is usually around 5 to 6 hours and 20 minutes. The tickets for direct high-speed trains cost around $135 (€125).

From Frankfurt to Amsterdam by plane

If you are planning to catch a flight, then you can opt for one of the flights operated by KLM or Lufthansa. The duration of a direct flight from Frankfurt to Amsterdam is around 1 hour and 10 minutes. And while by booking in advance you can find tickets for around $105 (€97), you have to keep in mind that you have to arrive at the airport at least 2 hours in advance, as well as factor in at least 1 hour to get to and from the airport (both in Frankfurt and Amsterdam). In total, you will likely spend around 4 to 5 hours traveling by air.

From Frankfurt to Amsterdam by river cruise

If you are seeking a more luxurious travel option, taking a river cruise is what you are looking for! You will navigate through the Rhine River for several days, depending on the cruise you opt for. The river cruises from Frankfurt to Amsterdam often include stops at other ports for you to explore nearby cities.

From Frankfurt to Amsterdam by private car service

If making stops along the way to explore nearby cities sounds appealing, but you are not planning to take a river cruise, then opt for a private car service like Daytrip! Your flexibility is our priority, so make sure you add any of the sightseeing stops to your journey. You can schedule your trip for any time of the day. During the 4 hour and 40 minutes long drive your local driver will be happy to share more tips and recommendations, as you approach the cosmopolitan Amsterdam.

Before you cross the border, stretch your legs and take a walk around the charming town of Cologne. Make sure you check out the impressive, UNESCO-listed Cologne Cathedral built in Gothic style. Not far away from Cologne, make another stop at the Schloss Benrath and have a little stroll at the palace’s lovely park. Then, as you enter the Netherlands, explore the city of Utrecht and the nearby De Haar Castle which is the largest castle in the country.

Walk around the Jordaan District

If you want to escape the loud city center, experience more of the local vibe, and admire the picturesque canals and historic buildings, then consider visiting the Jordaan District. It is one of Amsterdam’s most emblematic neighborhoods, built back in the 17th century. In this area, you will also find many nice restaurants and interesting stores as you weave through the narrow streets lined with typical Dutch houses.

Dive into the tulip garden

Did you know that Amsterdam has the only floating flower market in the world? If the flowers of the market are not enough and you are visiting during the tulip season (mid-April to mid-May), you must add the Keukenhof Gardens to your itinerary!

It is a beautiful garden that displays tulips of all the colors and types. As the Netherlands is famous for its tulips, make sure you go early to avoid crowds: a great way to do so is by securing Daytrip’s private car service. You will be there before anyone else and (possibly) have the garden all for yourself!

Try the Dutch culinary delights

One of the most exciting parts of visiting another country is trying their local dishes and pastries. Here are some of our favorites that you should not miss:

• Stroopwafel: these thin waffles are filled with a thin layer of syrup. It is a simple yet very Dutch little sweet treat to enjoy as a quick snack.
• Snert: while the name might not sound appealing, it really is worth a try! It is a thick soup made of peas, pork, carrots, and herbs such as leek and celery.
• Bitterballen: little meatballs that are perfect for snacking as you enjoy a pint of Heineken.
