Here is a selection of the most recent reviews of the I amsterdam Card - City Pass for Amsterdam submitted by actual travelers. Read what travelers liked, what they loved, and what they thought could be improved.
The I amsterdam Card is an absolute must when visiting Amsterdam. Everything about the card is worthwhile - free entry, discounts, unlimited transport, canal trip. The only thing to be aware of is that if you are collecting your tickets from the tourist office opposite Central Station you need to get a ticket number which you use to queue and will be call on when an operator is available. This is not made clear at all within the tourist office nor is the ticket machine in a prominent position.

Great card. Saved us money and encouraged us to visit museums we wouldn't have thought about.
The travel card is a useful bonus espcially for the trams.
We found this pass to be very user friendly and financially worthwhile. We saw more of the city than we would have without it. The transportation system is easy enough to use. I would definitely recommend this pass especially to first time visitors like us.

I purchased the I amsterdam card for my 2 day Amsterdam trip in April during Queens Day weekend. The card was so useful when it came to transportation on the trams in central Amsterdam. All we had to do was decide which tram took us to a particular museum and we just scan our cards on the tram and on our way. Trams could get very crowded so it was hard at times to scan yourseld off. But none the less we managed. It was a breeze getting into museums especially since so many were free with the card. I especially enjoyed the free canal cruise and its definitely a must to do while there. The card also allowed us to get into the Heineken Museum for a discounted rate which is a plus where that is a very popular attraction. Didn't really use the card to purchase food since most restaurants compete so their prices on food specials were a great deal. All in all it was definitely a great experience and thanks to the I amsterdam card it gave us the "key to the city".

I only gave this 3 stars as the card in itself was great, but we paid for a 48 hr pass and should have been told when we bought the card that there was a holiday in that time frame and no buses or public transportation, and many things that were ciovered on the card were not open as it was the Queen's Holiday. So 24 hours were a complete waste of money. We should have been advised of this at time of booking
