Walk & Explore Amsterdam with the Interactive City Trail

Discover Amsterdam on your own terms with this self-guided interactive city trail that turns the historic centre into your playground. This flexible experience lets you explore at your own pace whilst solving riddles and completing challenges that lead you to the city's most famous landmarks. The 3.5-kilometre route takes you through Amsterdam's scenic canals, past the Anne Frank House, across bustling Dam Square, and to notable sites including the Western Church Tower, Warmoesstraat, Oude Kerk, and the Royal Palace.
