Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 1,963 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers found the card incredibly useful for exploring Amsterdam, praising its excellent value for money, particularly for multi-day use and well-planned itineraries. Many appreciated the ease of use, making trips hassle-free with convenient access to attractions and public transportation. However, some customers noted that the card's value might not be fully realized without extensive use, potentially being more expensive than individual tickets.

Super useful and convenient way to explore the city. Gave good value for money and meant we were able to squeeze a few extra things in without worrying about missing other slots or the expense. All in all, highly recommended for a trip to Amsterdam!

No stress!

I really enjoyed using the I Amsterdam city card! Me and my bf specifically purchased the 48hours ones and we had a blast! We did almost everything on our list and the best part was using the tram and buses with the card, no sweat!

We visited the Artis Zoo (and Micropia!), the Hortus Botanicus, Rijksmuseum, Moco, rode a bike at Vondelpark, did a canal cruise with Mokumboot ( highly recommended!!!) and sadly missed the time slot for A'dam lookout, but it was still quite fun!

Bonus points: Since we had already purchased the cards before even getting in our flight, when we were there it felt like we only spend money for food and extra activities not included (Anne Frank Museum and Ripley's believe it or not). So it felt good to not have to buy stuff all the time ngl! We just showed our QR codes and in we went ✨

The card was absolute perfect for museums and public transportation. Free rides on the metro, and helped to get into major museums. It would’ve been nice to have been able to use the card in more places though. Many locations only gave discounts instead of free entry, and it was limited for boat tour options.

So convenient and easy to use

So convenient and easy to use! We had a blast going to museums, a comedy club, churches, hopping on and off the excellent public transit system. Definitely a better card than others we tried in Rome or Milan - much more organized and user friendly.

The I am Amsterdã card didn’t assess to treadmills village train

I hope the card gives entry to treadmills trains, since public transport was included. It was a surprise in the moment to take it.

Hi!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear that the QR code did not work at two museums during your visit.
We understand how frustrating this must have been, especially when using the City Card should make accessing attractions easier.

We appreciate you bringing this issue to our attention, please let us know at which two locations the card did not work at webcare@iamsterdam.com and we’ll share your feedback with the relevant teams so that the QR code experience can be investigated and improved.

We hope that, despite these issues, you still had a wonderful time in Amsterdam.

My card never ever worked.

My card never ever worked.
As soon as I arrived at Amsterdam Central Station I attempted to activate. It did not activate.
I went to the I Amsterdam store they uninstalled and re installed the app and apparently activated the app.
The first time I tried to use it on a tram I could not resulted in me missing my stop. I then tried to use it at the Rijksmuseum and was told it was defective, resulting in me having to pay the full asking price.
I emailed I Amsterdam asking for a full refund, I was only provided with a partial refund, even though it never ever worked for me.
I am not impressed with it.
Save your money and don't purchase it.

Hi Alastair,

Thank you for your review and your feedback in regards to our city card. We are very sorry to hear that you encountered trouble with activating the city card.

It is correct that you were provided with a partial refund for the cards. As stated in our terms and conditions we normally do not refund activated cards, used or not. Due to your situation we made the exception and refunded most part of the card.

Your feedback is important to us, and we will share your comments with the relevant teams as we continue to improve our product.

We hope that, despite this disappointing experience, you were still able to enjoy some of your time in Amsterdam.

Kind regards,

I bought 3 cards and the app failed

I bought 3 cards. During the process of sharing the cards between mobile devices, one of them disappeared. It was impossible to speak to anyone to resolve the issue. We had to buy cards again (this time individually to avoid the system malfunction). None of the first three cards were ever used, and despite filing a claim via PayPal, more than 15 days have passed and we still have no response.
