Be prepared for any weather

When it comes to this amazing city, you will have to be packed with all-weather clothes. In most cities, you might expect snow in the winter and sunshine in the summer.

Difference between cafés and coffee shops

A lot of people make this mistake and embarrass themselves. Make sure you learn and remember this difference. One is if you just want to drink your regular coffee (café) and the other is the well-known shops where you can buy or smoke weed (coffee shops).

Try some street food

Make sure you do not miss out on Amsterdam’s street food. Stroopwaffles are a pretty popular snack around Amsterdam and the local specialty is “frites” also known as “patat”.

Check out the museums

There are over 70 museums and galleries all around the city. As a result, there is a type of museum for everyone. From the Cat Cabinet which is dedicated to everything that is related to felines/cats to the Our Lord in the Attic, a beautiful church from the 17th-century preserved in the attic of a townhouse.
