Bike in West

Started and developed in the early 19th century, Oud-West is one of the city’s trendiest and most welcoming neighborhoods. Its alleys are charming and quiet, and suitable for cycling or walking. Bars and cafes are found on every corner, offering the best local specialties. Sit in one of the legendary “brown cafés” in the Oud-West and admire the wood-paneled facades. There is a great atmosphere in this area. It usually attracts those who want to attend art exhibitions or concerts by national and international artists.

Bike in Oost

Amsterdam Oost is known for its wide streets lined with monumental 19th-century buildings and its vibrant cultural mix. Dotted with places to shop, eat and drink, this neighborhood offers a great selection of trendy clubs, traditional Turkish bakeries, Surinamese supermarkets and Middle Eastern restaurants. One of our tips is to rent a bike in Oost – what about Donkey bikes? – and ride in the beautiful Oosterpark before dedicating some cultural time at the Tropenmuseum.

Bike in Zuid

Home to some of the best museums in the world, Oud-Zuid is one of Amsterdam’s most elegant and well-preserved neighborhoods, where impressive mansions and chic boutiques line the leafy shopping streets. From the splendor of Museumplein to the vibrant Vondelpark and the serene boulevards of Willemspark, the beautiful Oud-Zuid district rewards the visitor at every turn. Lunch at Sushilee or Market 33 and eat surrounded by locals, or fancy a more gastronomic experience at the Grand Café Malher.
