Should you buy the Amsterdam Museum Card?
Visiting Amsterdam means visiting a number of museums and making the most of your free time while you’re there, among other things. Without museum passes or priority tickets, you’ll have to wait in line at every museum and at every attraction. If you want to avoid this: the Amsterdam Museum Card is for you.

What we think:
You should buy this pass if your answer to the following questions is YES:
- Do you want low-priced tickets while you avoid waiting in line for hours on end every time you visit a museum in Amsterdam?
