Here are some ideas to enjoy a perfect day in Amsterdam. Anne Frank memorial statue Amsterdam canals at night 5:45 PM 10:10 PM 4:00 PM After walking along the streets, how about seeing Amsterdam from a different perspective? Head to Amsterdam Centre to rent a fully electric boat from Mokumboot, where you’ll tour the Dutch canals at your own pace. The environmentally friendly boats are easy to maneuver, so you and your companions can take a map and appreciate the sights and sounds of these aged waterways. During the late afternoon, visit the Anne Frank House to better understand the life of this impactful teenager, known for her diary describing her family’s two years of hiding from the Nazis. Read exhibits that describe the Amsterdam of Anne’s time and the people who defied, and were complicit, to tyranny. Our agency can help you acquire tickets. 8:05 PM After a return to your hotel, enjoy a lovely dinner on-site, at the Duchess, which celebrates light and refined flavors from the South of France and Italy. The dining area is bathed in candlelight and bejeweled with chandeliers, complementing your dinner. Enjoy ricotta and spinach gnudi pasta, braised short ribs with handcrafted pasta or king crab and langoustine tortellini. After dinner, enjoy drinks at the bar of MR PORTER with your 100 USD hotel credit you received for booking through our agency. And finish the evening with a stroll through the neighborhoods near the canals, where the lights of the buildings reflect off the calm waters. CONTACT US TODAY TO RECEIVE YOUR FREE VIP AMENITIES | 39
