10 Fun Activities & Games in Nieuwmarkt En Lastage That You Shouldn't Miss

April 27, 2022 Alice Mieles

This city, full of colorful homes, canals and bridges, is one of Europe's most picturesque capitals. Must-sees on any visitor's itinerary include the Anne Frank House, the Van Gogh Museum and the world's only floating flower market. Rent a bike and join thousands of locals navigating Amsterdam's labyrinthine streets, or just take in the sights on foot. For an unusual and memorable alternative to hotels, consider staying in a houseboat.

We tried it for a company team building event in Lisbon and even though some of us were quite familiar with the surroundings, the app would surprise us with beautiful walks, while exposing some of Lisbon's many hidden gems. It was just about the right duration (2h) and difficulty level to keep the team excited and some silly interpretations going ;D After this experience, I think it's worth considering a replacement of the standard "best things to do" search here on TripAdvisor, with a "I want to be Indiana Jones" on Secret City Trails.

I had the best time solving the puzzles in Xitroom (I've tried Professor X Escape Room)! We've split into two 4-person groups, it took us around 50 minutes to get the room unlocked and it was a blast! It's a great idea to come up (businesswise) with if you're looking for an activity that is perfect for teambuilding purposes. Highly recommended! (pity I cannot provide any pic, but we were kindly requested to leave our phones in the lockers).

Today we played 2 escape rooms at Escape World. After a short introduction from Jakob we found ourself in a wizarding world. After a short break Eline told us about a missing bride we had to find. We enjoyed the first room, but the second one was even better! Very original room with nice puzzles! Had a great afternoon, thank you!

We visited TunFun in the middle of Feb. Situated underneath a tram line & intersection. Excellent play area for children. Large soft play jungle gyms for different ages. Cafe serves food & drinks, lovely and warm in there. Will definitely visit again. Used the tram to Waterlooplein, unsure if any car parking is nearby.

Glow MiniGolf Amsterdam

GlowGolf Amsterdam is de nieuwste trend in Amsterdam voor jong en oud. Met het thema; “Back to the Future in 15 Holes”, zullen de deelnemers zich spelenderwijs door een aantal kenmerkende en historische tijdzones begeven. Het spel neemt je mee door de tijd van de eerste bewoners van de aarde tot aan de hypermoderne toekomst.Met glow-in-the-dark-minigolf wordt tijdreizen een ware beleving om nog vaak te herhalen.

Reviewed By nikita_s369 - Amsterdam, The Netherlands

We didn´t have anything planned for the evening and decided for some fun activity - we never tried minigolf in the dark before and were very positively surprised! I have read some comments here on TripAdvisor that the place is difficult to find but I experienced the opposite. Glowgolf is located in the basement of a restaurant/bar and the signs outside will guide you. The friendly lady at the bar greeted us and offered drinks (no drinks and food allowed in the minigolf area) before she brought us to the entrance and explained the game to us quickly. We took the 3D glasses and we have to say that, even though we struggled seeing properly through the glasses, it was much more fun and challenging than doing it without! It was not too crowded, so we had enough time to go from one hole to the other. In total it took us almost 1 hour for 2 players (time for dances of joy and pictures included :) ). I would definitely recommend!

I went with my team to play laser tag here. This place is a quick and scenic walk from the central station. There was an instruction video followed by two rounds of laser tagging 12 minutes each. I was sweating after each round of laser tagging. You get a nice score card with game statistics after each round. A totally fun place to hang out with your friends!
