What ticket should I buy in Amsterdam? This is a tricky topic because there are so many different ticket options available when taking Amsterdam public transport. It is also very much dependant on your itinerary and whether you plan to travel elsewhere in the Netherlands. In this video, I’ll be talking about the iamsterdam card, the Amsterdam Travel Ticket, the GVB card, The Amsterdam and Region Travel Ticket and the Holland Travel Ticket. I’ll also be talking about the OV chipcard and OV Pay.
One thing I wanted to add was that it is possible to buy a GVB ticket from a tram conductor. However this should be your very last resort. The trams can get very crowded, they move off quickly and occasionally there isn’t even a conductor on board. Don’t get caught out, and buy your ticket ahead of time.

ABOUT ME
Hello there! My name is Daniella Perera and I’m an artist and vlogger based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. I grew up in Hong Kong and the UK, and I’m of mixed heritage including Chinese, Sri-Lankan, Dutch and Portuguese.
Near the end of 2020, I moved from Kuala Lumpur to Amsterdam with my husband. I have since fallen in love with this city, and I make YouTube videos (every other weekend) about things to do in Amsterdam and tips to settle in faster. The idea behind 'Pocket Lighthouse' was to shine a light on the above topics, and for this information to be accessible on the go.
One of my long-term goals is to use my creativity (whether that be through art or video) to regularly support organisations helping strays and shelter dogs. Needless to say I absolutely adore dogs.
