[2025 Amsterdam Attraction] Travel Guide for A'DAM Lookout (Updated May)

1) A’dam Lookout is a spectacular tower holding the highest swing in Europe. This is a very affordable and extremely worthwhile experience, to feel like you are flying with your friend or partner beside you! The views from the tower alone are worthwhile if you don’t fancy braving the swing. Also, if you’re a group of three, one of you will get to go twice! As A’dam is over on the Northern side of the city, not everyone realises that access is very simple. There’s a regular free ferry that crosses the canal, accessible around the back of central station. While you’re there, it’s also worth checking out the EYE film museum right next door! 2) Muiderslot castle. Muiderslot is easily missed by visitors to the city as it lies on the outskirts in Muiden, and is waterlocked, but it this historical treasure is well worth a visit. Built in 1370 by the Duke of Bavaria, it is one of the best preserved medieval castles I’ve ever seen. Although it is technically accessible by road, the easiest (and most fun) way to get there is taking the bus to Ijberg then boarding the Amsterdam Tourist Ferry's jetty. Travel there and back included, you’ll have a 4 hour trip to explore this beautiful castle and listen to the audio tour recounting its fascinating history. You can also explore the vast gardens and grounds. 3) Hortus botanicus is often missed in favour of the Amsterdam zoo, but it is actually one of the worlds OLDEST botanical gardens. It has several different ‘biomes’ in its greenhouses, including a rainforest room, while the outdoor gardens are a beautiful place to spend an hour and relax among the rare plants and art installations, or wander into its hidden-gem butterfly house to see all the little critters feeding on fresh fruit and fluttering around you! #100waysoftravel #historicallandmarks #amsterdam #Netherlands

1️⃣Intersection of Keizersgracht and Leidsegracht canals If you want to take the most classic photo of the canal, the intersection of Keizersgracht and Leidsegracht is the best choice. 2️⃣Korte Niezel Bridge The St. Nicholas Church, the canal houses around it, the arched bridge with bicycles parked on it, and the occasional passing boat form a quite harmonious picture. 3️⃣Amuqiao Seven Bridges (7 Bridges) As a city of canals, there are countless bridges. The intersection of Reguliersgracht and Herengracht canals is the most magical place in the city, where you can see seven consecutive bridge arches at once. 4️⃣A'DAM Lookout Observation Deck Standing on the top of a 20-story tower, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Amsterdam from a god's-eye view. There is also the highest swing in Europe on the observation deck (if you dare, be sure to check in), and you can easily take super cool photos of yourself suspended above the panoramic view of Amsterdam. 5️⃣SkyLounge Amsterdam A bar 11 floors high that offers a bird's-eye view of the entire city without requiring an admission ticket. (During the peak of summer, sipping on a colorful cocktail while enjoying the beautiful scenery is simply amazing.) 6️⃣NEMO Science Museum Apart from the panoramic view of the city, you can capture various beautiful and creative photos of the staircase rooftop with its own fountain, the peacefully docked boats, and the uniquely shaped iron bridge. 7️⃣I Amsterdam logo Every day, a constant stream of tourists stop here to take photos. If you want to take a pure "I Amsterdam" photo and have the opportunity to take a photo with this landmark alone, it is recommended to come and check in at night or in the early morning. 8️⃣Coin Square (Muntplein) The coin square full of ancient atmosphere is a great place to take retro photos. From the top floor of the Geelvinck parking lot nearby, you can overlook the entire square and capture every exquisite building in sight. 9️⃣Hortus Botanicus Amsterdam (Amsterdam Botanical Garden) This is a paradise for literary and fresh Instagrammers, where you can easily capture the taste of fashion bloggers. The pink walls in the botanical garden can withstand high aesthetic standards whether you're taking photos of people or scenery. 🔟Damrak Avenue The canal houses along the Damrak waterfront are a must-see scenery in many postcards. Houses of various colors are neatly arranged along the canal, narrow and even leaning. They have stood here for hundreds of years, creating the most classic appearance of Amsterdam.

On the ADAM observation deck of the Amsterdam Tower, watch the sunset from the highest point and experience a different Amsterdam. There is also an outdoor ride in the tower, with thousands of miles of sky under your feet; those who are more timid can also ride a VR roller coaster to experience the excitement of the virtual world. Enjoy discounts when purchasing tickets online: Adult ticket: € 14,50 Children: € 8,50 Package (includes tickets, outdoor swing and VR roller coaster): € 22,50 *Available by free boat #外游 #Holland #Amsterdam #adamlookout

Amsterdam, you never cease to surprise me! 🌟 My first impression? The train from the airport was *quite the adventure*—let’s just say the platform left more than a few tourists (including me) scratching their heads. 🚆😂 But hey, it’s all part of the journey, right? Once I found my way, this city completely won me over. After weeks of working across Europe, I finally found comfort in Amsterdam’s incredible Asian food scene. 🥢 From steaming bowls of Vietnamese pho to spicy Thai curries and authentic Chinese dumplings, every bite felt like a warm hug. 🍜 I also found a super delicious yet affordable Italian food for takeaway, it’s really one of the best meals I have had for the trip! But Amsterdam is so much more than its food. Mornings here are magical—peaceful walks along cobblestone streets, the symphony of bicycles, and that *distinctly Amsterdam* scent in the air. 🚲 I took the free ferry to Adam Lookout for breathtaking skyline views and even ventured into the Red Light District—an experience that’s as bold and unforgettable as the city itself. 👀 Amsterdam is a city of contrasts: chaotic train platforms and serene canals, traditional Dutch charm and international flair. It’s the perfect blend of comfort and adventure, and I couldn’t have asked for a better way to unwind after a long trip. 🌷✨ #AmsterdamAdventures #TravelTales #hollandtrip

#hollandtrip Standing atop A’DAM Lookout, I was greeted with a breathtaking panoramic view of Amsterdam’s historic skyline, its winding canals, and the sprawling cityscape stretching out to the horizon. This iconic observation deck, located in the heart of the city, offered a unique perspective that captured both the old-world charm and modern vibrancy of the Dutch capital. But the real adrenaline rush came from the Over the Edge swing—the highest swing in Europe. As I was securely strapped in, anticipation built, and before I knew it, I was swinging out over the edge of the tower, 100 meters above the ground. The rush of wind, the sweeping views, and the sheer exhilaration of floating over the city created a moment of pure thrill. The combination of excitement and awe-inspiring scenery made it an unforgettable experience. After the swing, I took my time enjoying the Lookout’s interactive exhibits, which provided fascinating insights into Amsterdam’s history and future developments. The rooftop bar was the perfect spot to unwind, sipping a drink while taking in the stunning views. Visiting A’DAM Lookout was more than just sightseeing—it was an adventure that combined spectacular scenery with heart-pounding excitement, making it a highlight of my time in Amsterdam.

Excellent experience in Amsterdam. 😊

Me and my best friend had the most magical time on the swing here. Definitely some views that I will never forget🇳🇱🏙️

I went on the highest swing in Europe in Amsterdam, but I'm so scared of heights that I couldn't ride it alone and had to get the help of a staff member 🤣 Mental support is essential 🥹 The swing is slow and not too scary, but I don't recommend it for people who can't stand heights lol It's an additional charge of €7, and you can enjoy just the observation deck, so if you're brave, I recommend it. lol . . . 📍A'DAM Lookout 🗺️North Holland, The Netherlands 🕒10:00-22:00 💰Lookout+Swing €26 #FreeTabi

#EuropeanTravel I visited the Adam Lookout Observatory, which offers a bird's eye view of the canal city of Amsterdam. It is a place where you can look down on the 360-degree view of Amsterdam from 85m high on the 21st floor. At the very top, there is a sculpture called Adam where you can take a commemorative photo and a swing in the air. Those who are brave enough can try riding it. You can also have a Heineken beer while looking at Amsterdam from the floor below. 👍 We went on a weekday afternoon, but it can be difficult to buy tickets when there are a lot of people, so it is recommended to make a reservation online in advance. To come to Adam, take a boat from Amsterdam Central Station. It runs every 6 minutes. It's free. 🤗 ✔️Admission to Adam Lookout Observatory Offline 14.5 euros (about 21,000 won) Online 12.5 euros (about 17,900 won) ✔️Swing over the edge 5 euros (about 7,200 won) ✔️Opening hours 10:00~22:00 Last admission 21:00 #Amsterdam #AmsterdamTravel #AmsterdamObservatory #NetherlandsTravel #Netherlands
