Amsterdam Private Layover Tour

Maximize your time during a layover at Amsterdam airport by exploring the city with this private tour. If your layover exceeds 8 hours, you also have the option to visit Zaanse Schans, Volendam, Marken, or Edam.

Tour Overview

The Amsterdam Layover Tour is a private experience that includes a vehicle, driver, and an English-speaking guide from the moment you arrive until your return to the airport. A representative will meet you at the arrivals terminal with a sign featuring your name. Depending on your arrival time, you can select from different itineraries or even customize your own.

3-Hour Experience

During this 3-hour tour, you will have the chance to explore vital landmarks in Amsterdam, which may include landmarks like Museumplein, the Anne Frank House, Dam Square, or the Royal Palace of Amsterdam.

6-Hour Experience

In this option, you will immerse yourself in Amsterdam for 6 hours, plus a visit to a picturesque village in the Dutch countryside: choose between Zaanse Schans, famous for its windmills, or the traditional fishing village of Volendam.

8-Hour Experience

If your layover is longer, you can enjoy 8 hours in the Dutch capital. This option allows you more time in the city along with a visit to two charming nearby towns, with the selection including Zaanse Schans, Marken, Volendam, or Edam.

Visit to Keukenhof

Keukenhof is one of the Netherlands' most prestigious parks and is especially recommended for spring travelers wishing to admire the vibrant colors of tulips across 72 acres (32 hectares).

From March 20 to May 11, if your layover is over 10 hours, you can enjoy a visit to Keukenhof along with Amsterdam, given that more time is needed for the latter.

Key Information

The tour is adaptable and can be tailored to your preferences; however, the available tour times from the airport are as follows:

• 3-hour tour: arrivals between 8 am and 4 pm.
• 6-hour tour: arrivals between 8 am and 2 pm.
• 8-hour tour: arrivals between 8 am and 12 pm.

Considerations for Layover

It is important to note that the round trip journey from the airport takes approximately 1.5 hours, and you must be at the airport at least 2 hours before your flight. Consequently, the total duration of the tour will be about four hours shorter than your layover time. For the 3-hour tour, for instance, a layover of at least 7 hours is recommended.
