Hi Friends,
Iam Raghavan ,I have planned for doing masters at university of amsterdam NL .It would be much appreciated if eople here can guide me regarding the university ranking and other details such as netherlands economy ,visa permits and career opportunities ,cost of living .Thanks in advance
Can you help to tell if I can buy Old Holborn (tobacco) in Amsterdam and how much does it cost? I would like to take a day trip from Southend to stock up some in Amsterdam or just airport 🙂 thank you
Hi
I am sorry but I can’t help you. I have never heard of this brand. Maybe someone else who reads this knows?
Hey Iam a fan of old holbron as well but I haven’t found it since I left Cyprus now I’m in Norway and I can’t find it here if it’s available in Amsterdam by chance I’m traveling there next month will be a treat to get that tobacco again
I’m currently living in Los Angeles and want to relocate to Holland, want to know what is the average cost for a room to rent in Amsterdam and what are a good areas’s to live at avoiding the bad area’s
Is it better to rent a room in a flat or a house?
If live further away from the main city, is the cost going to be cheaper and expensive to travel to the city back and forth?
will be better off with the public transportation or rent a car or buy a car to get around?
Is the parking very expensive to park the car around?
Dear Alex
Average prices in Amsterddam are named on this website, around 1200 in the ‘free sector’ for a house, around €600 for a room. There is a big shortage. There are no ‘bad areas’ in Amsterdam.
You can find a place in another city and travel by train and bus to and from Amsterdam. A car in Amsterdam is not useful. In Amsterdam and the enire Netherlands, they travel by bike or public transport. Parking fee is very high and finding a parking space. Try to talk to expats or other Americans in Amsterdam to give you a full picture. Good luck!
Tanja
Also what are the bad area’s (city or provinces to avoid living in) in the Nederlands
I November going to be very hard for a person to be looking or to find a place to live in?
what is the weather like in the month of November and is it very very cold to get around?
When you arive in Amsterdam for a few days, go to the nearest tourist information. located near the bus stop( central train station). There you can buy a bus/tram/metro pass, valid for a week,two weeks or a month you wil have unlimited traveling in public transport for a very reduced price.
All our cities are pretty save( but have some streets you should not go to). I recommend Groningen city. A lot of students. and the main streets are safe at night Even walking alone at night in the main streets is save, Always people around. Most of them are students. robbery is not common. The homeless people are very polite, they sometimes sell magazines. Just go to the nearest bar, most people are proud to tell you the best places in town.
In November we have rain, sunshine and it is windy. just above freezing point. At night it can be cold, wear a coat. In winter tempratures down to 14F in summer up to 95F (colder and hotter is very possible)
You need a bike 😉 for sale secondhand at most stores, Don’t buy them on the streets.
Hello, ive read that foreign tourists cant buy & smoke weed in the coffee shops longer ?
No, that’s old news….
Hi could you tell me what could be the rates of Private house sex like Jan Bik , Park 118 , CLub Bianca
Depends why you are in Amsterdam when you enquire about prices. For the RLD, try theamsterdamdiaries. Just a thought!
I’m visiting namely Amsterdam next week and was wondering how smoothly coffee shops are allowed to operate at the moment and if there’s any general tips you’d suggest. Thanks!
Coffeeshops are operating as smoothly as usual. Only tip I have: take it easy on the Dutch weed as it can be pretty overwhelming! Enjoy your stay in Amsterdam next weekend.
Hi I was wondering if I could buy 1 ounce of weed anywhere in Amsterdam
yes you can buy.. not in coffeshop max 5 gram
You can buy 4g of Thai weed for 8Euro in the Hague 😀 Im so happy Im here!
truly, that sounds like a dream! i’m so excited to visit, thank you so much for the helpful post.
This is a very helpful article, but i was wondering.. how easy is it for a student to get a job in Amsterdam? Maybe as a waiter, either at a restaurant or a cafeteria. How much is a monthly payment for a 6-7 days a week, 8 hours shift?
I find prostitution is always a good bet
i will be in amsterdam next week and would like to try some weed but dont smoke and am unable to inhale.any suggestions?
Am going to Amsterdam for three days with granddaughter. Have boomed Anne Frank House, theatre and Hard Rock Cafe. What else would you advise where we can take a 16 year old with her grandparents.
I been in Amsterdam many times,first time,I been in 91 year,last time I been in 2002 year,and before EU,Amsterdam it was great and free city,I mean this year 2002 year,many things is changed in Amsterdam,it,s not good as before,but for some people Amsterdam always will be good city,this is my opinion,regards,ivica from Croatia
Today it was 2,90 for the tram and it was only good for one hour. This was printed at the ticket collector both.
Hey, I’m going to Amsterdam next summer and I’m wondering how much shrooms are?
Hi Zack, Unfortunately, magic mushrooms are no longer available in Amsterdam since they were banned. There are substitues like magic truffles available at the smart shops though. Read more about it: https://www.whatsupwithamsterdam.com/amsterdam-smart-shops/
the tram is one of the cheapest things in amsterdam in three days i spent £400 pounds on food and transport wont be back too expensiveirene sept 2016
in shop was charged 5euros for a litre of water smal coca cola 2 euros everything was overpriced also no public toilets no ramps for wheelchairs i could go on suffice to say never again
I’ve run out of Golden Virginia! So the primary reason for my 3 day visit next week is return with 3K of GV and fond memories of local herb participation. I have been to Amsterdam many times but long ago. So…any suggestions please on interesting alternatives? I land at Schipol and can take a train to anywhere there’s a nice coffee shop with a supermarket next door selling GV!!! Oh, and a nearby hotel..grateful for your suggestions. ..
If Golden Virginia is tobacco, you’d best check a tobacco shop. Check out this map with tabakswinkel Amsterdam: http://bit.ly/2dcNHiN. The centre of Amsterdam is filled with coffee shops and supermarkets and hotels. Can be pretty busy though, best book a hotel online first. Good luck!
Hi All
We are hoping to visit for the night in the new year.
We have been to Amsterdam about 8 times and never leave the centre.
My husband likes a drink and i like a smoke.
People say there are cheaper places to smoke and drink but we have no idea where.
can anyone point us in the right direction please.
We may only be there about 7 hours on a mini cruise unless we book the 1 nights stay.
Thanks Emma
Hi emma, how did u get on with the mini cruise? We have one booked for the 12th march and will be our 1st time over in dam. Any suggestions as to where the best smoke is? Or what to do with our limited time there?
Hi I am coming to Amsterdam on Tuesday, if I buy an ov card will I be able to get from airport to Amsterdam with this card?
Hi can you get from aiport to Amsterdam with an ov card?
Hi. You need to charge the OV card first. Then you can take a train to Central Station. The trains are down the stairs, near the exit. You ‘check in’ with the OV Chipcard and when you arrive at C.S check out, so the amount is taken from the card. There are many trains to Amsterdam, so make sure you get one to CENTRAL STATION. But I wouldn’t worry, cause usually they have special people to guide you to right train. There is also an information stand. It’s easy. Hope this helps. Enjoy your trip! -Tanja
