The Best Places to Visit in Amsterdam with Family

The Best Places to Visit in Amsterdam with Family

  • 2024-03-072025-04-22

The cities that are included are London, Paris, Barcelona, Vienna, Rome, Prague, Budapest, Berlin, Brussels, and Amsterdam, which is the capital city of the Netherlands, is famous for its canals, elegant buildings, and rich culture. It is also one of the best places that one can visit for a family holiday. Amsterdam has a multitude of things that can be entertaining for families as well as numerous attractions and activities. Following are some of the most popular attractions and sightseeing locations in this blog post that one should consider visiting with family in Amsterdam.

1. Artis Zoo

The Artis Zoo is one of the oldest and most beautiful zoo in Europe which is situated in the centre of capital of Netherlands i.e. Amsterdam. It is thus a natural habitat to different species of animals such as lions, elephants, penguins and giraffes among others. Children will certainly enjoy the notion of being able to interact not only with the animals but also with the concepts and practices of the conservation of wildlife. In addition, it has playgrounds, animal touch areas and a recreational area includes the planetarium.

2. NEMO Science Museum

Visiting should be done at the NEMO Science Museum which is an exciting museum that has activities for children of all ages. It is specialized in presenting the subjects in the areas of physics, chemistry, and biology. Experiments can be carried out, structures erected, and science itself discovered by the kids through various activities. The rooftop terrace has a vantage point of Amsterdam skyline.

3. Vondelpark

Vondelpark is the largest park in Amsterdam and one of the essential public parks that would list on any visit to the city of Amsterdam. It has abundant space, grassy areas, beautiful water bodies, children’s play areas, and an amphitheatre, for instance. The park is pinpointed with fun attractions and bicycle rental services and pedal boats are provided for families who want to cycle around the park. Take a picnic and spend time in close companionship with each other featuring nature.

4. Anne Frank House

In my view, the sightseeing visit with family or friends at the Anne Frank House is an eye-opening and informative moment. This museum recreates a real life of Anne Frank, a Jewish girl who had to hide from the Nazi occupation during World War II. Visit the secret annex of the house where Anne and her family hid and discover the horrible facts of the holocaust. This is why it is advised that people should book their tickets in advance for them to avoid the long queues especially if they are required to be in the theatre early morning.

5. Amsterdam Dungeon

For the best family time and if you are up for it the Amsterdam Dungeon is just the place to visit. This gimmick will allow the viewer to travel through the sinister history of Amsterdam. Actors and special effects will present an interesting and rather horrifying show to the visitors to show the hardships of the past. It should also be noted that it might not be the best destination for children or adults with a weak heart due to spooky experience.

6. Science Center NEMO

The children with an adventurous mind and interest in science will love visiting Science Center NEMO. This is an action-related museum representing the exhibitions on different branches of science. Children can come to the funhouse, explore the individual science concepts and the possibility of having a solar powered home or the wonders of outer space. The terrace is located on the top of the building and from there you can see the magnificent views of the city of Amsterdam.

7. Efteling

Efteling for example is an amusement park based in the Netherlands that is near Amsterdam that is based on fantasy and fairytales park. Efteling with wonderful rides, delightful attractions and bright shows will be a fairy-tale tale for the whole family. You can have a glimpse at the Fairytale Forest, travel by water via Droomvlucht or just ride a number of heart-stopping rides from the rollercoaster. Described as the ‘Fun and Adventure Day,’ the day is fun-filled and thrilling.

Conclusion

Unfortunately, not many people are aware that Amsterdam is not only the city of culture and history but also the great family holiday destination. Some of the prime features of interest that would attract families with kids include the zoos and museums, parks, and even amusement parks. Read the content thoroughly, carefully plan a schedule, and each member of the family will fully enjoy the stay in Amsterdam.
