OBA Library of Amsterdam

Reviewed By DeesideDowser - Torphins, United Kingdom

This wonderful modern library had a fantastic waterfront location near the Central Station. It is worth a visit for the architecture and for the viewing gallery on the sixth floor, which gives superb views over Amsterdam. The NEMO science centre is also very close by and also worth a look.

I Amsterdam Visitor Centre

Reviewed By StockholmKindaGuy - Marietta, United States

I Amsterdam has several offices, including this one outside the city's Central Station. I stopped here upon arrival, after having already purchased an I Amsterdam card for my four day stay. I wanted to get some additional tourist information. I Amsterdam is a major tourist company in the city. You can purchase cards for a varying number of days that get you into a whole host of tourist sights for free or at a discount. The card also includes free use of public transportation. The is a good value if your visiting a lot of tourist sights as well as using the various modes of transportation. The staff manning the offices are friendly, helpful and professional. There's offices in the train station and airport as well.
