Quirky, tolerant, diverse, and confident – all of those words describe Amsterdam. Just a short trip from the UK, Amsterdam is the capital and largest city of the Netherlands. It offers a huge range of cultural attractions, including music, theatre, art, dance, and cinema, as well as many attractions aimed at families. The city also has a thriving nightlife scene and even an urban beach; there is a real beach just a short train trip away. In short, Amsterdam is a great place for luxury holidays.
When to visit
Amsterdam’s climate is broadly comparable to that of much of the UK. There are very rarely temperature extremes, which means that Amsterdam is a good city to visit outside the usual summer season. Another advantage of visiting out of season is that the crowds are much smaller than during the late spring and summer.
Amsterdam is well known for its Christmas and New Year celebrations, making these good times to visit as a family.
To sum up
Amsterdam is an exciting cosmopolitan city with a strong sense of identity based on diversity and tolerance. Why not browse our five-star holidays and start planning a trip today?
