Very practical and numerous connections between the airport and the center of Amsterdam (count about one bus every 10 min). Fairly easy to find meeting point at the airport. In the bus, a display screen allows you to follow the route traveled with the name of the stops as well as the time of arrival.

I actually stumbled upon this option by bus by accident - but having our hotel in the Museum District, it was perfect! Just got out at Van Gogh (Rijksmuseum) and our hotel was two blocks away. You could still drive all day with the ticket - so if you want to go (back) to the airport again, no problem either.

Great service to and from the city. A bus was waiting already for both legs of the journey, lots of space on board too. Good updates on the screens so you know where you are and how much longer to go. What should be made clearer on the website is the return ticket is valid for 14days from first use so good value if your trip is less than this period. Also, the QR codes on the tickets didn’t actually scan on the bus but the driver was very understanding and helpful on this.
