Getting from Amsterdam Schiphol into Amsterdam

Trains run from Schiphol to Centraal every 10 minutes in 17 minutes for £5. Amsterdam is small enough that a taxi at £40 is rarely worth it.

When to go

  • Best months: April and May, September and early October
  • Cheapest months: January and February, cold but quiet
  • Avoid: King's Day (27 April) unless you want the party

Before you book

  • Low-cost carriers sell the seat and charge for the bag. Check the bag fee as well: £25–£45 each way for 20 kg on the low-cost carriers.
  • Anything after 22:00 is worth pre-booking, because the bus timetable thins out and taxis know it.
  • Package protection is not automatic. Book flight and hotel separately and your ATOL protection is only what each seller offers on its own page.
