We have always travelled from Schiphol to Amsterdam by train. The bus was a nice alternative as it took us through areas we hadn’t previously visited. It also dropped us off at Museumplein which was. Lose to our hotel. The bus was clean and comfortable

Helpful?

Getting the bus from Schiphol Airport to Amsterdam was a really easy and cost effective way to travel. The instructions were really clear which made finding the bus stop super easy. We used Google Maps to help us identify the best stop for our accommodation in the city centre so we knew where to hop off. Overall the journey was only 30 minutes and the buses run very regularly. Heading back to the airport it was easy to find the correct stop located near where we arrived, and we only had to wait a few minutes for the bus to arrive. Overall it was a very easy and effective way to get from the airport to the city and back again completely stress free!

We travelled from Schipol Airport to Concertgebouwplein, Amsterdam and did the journey back to the airport a few days later. It is a very efficient way to travel to and from the city particularly if you are staying near the Museum Quarter or Leidesplein.
