One of the highlights of the city. Truly fantastic museum, give yourself at least half a day to explore it fully (even then you won't see everything). They've got a lovely cafe as well. Tickets are 18 euro, great value. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Make sure to download the app, it helps guide you around.

So well done with individualized audio tours. They limit the number that can go in at one time so it is not super crowded. Mix of bare rooms, artifacts, film, and stills makes for a varied and full picture of what the family went through and the bigger impact Anne had on the world. GET TICKETS 2 months in advance online to avoid long lines at the door.

A beautiful small museum showing paintings. In a little Dutch town in the vicinity of Amsterdam stands this art museum with its own special collection and occasional well made special exebitions. Nice shop and good parking space. Good light snacks and drinks available.

Amsterdam Icon! Great place for concerts. Small tip for cheap people like me: if you have multiple coats or bags, use the lockers upstairs. It's 2 euros per locker and you can fit 3-4 coats in there easily. The wardrobe will cost you 2 euros per coat.

Great venue, fair pricing and lots of lockers available. Nice place for attending performances. Only downside is the line which went all the way to the nearby square. So dont bother showing up until slightly after the time stated on your tickets.

DE School: De School club is a fantastic place.
The club space is in the basement which is very dark and has incredible sound.
It's an ideal environment for techno music which is what they mostly play here.

We recommend spending a whole day in Haarlem and rent bicycles to go to the Zuid Kennemerland National Park. Sweet lakes for swimming, huge dunes, and the North Sea seashore. Nearby is a Formula One racetrack at Zandvoort, DJ booths on the ocean, and a family-friendly clothing-optional beach.

Popular for Friday night Halloween! The scary theme areas are awesome and the actors/actresses playing a fantastic role in scaring people. If you go in early, you don't wait more than five minutes in queue nd the park is still empty.
Definitely doable within a whole day. Rides for all ages. Especially the Express, Robin Hood and Goliath are exciting but not too rough.
