(I did search before, but couldnt find the right info im looking for) Okay, so i'm thinking of taking a trip to Amsterdam sometime soon with a friend. It would be for a week. I was wondering if anyones had any experience over there and how much i'm looking at spending? I'd be buying a fair amount of weed (not a lot, as I get baked on hardly anything) and just the obvious, food, hotels and night life.
Thats like £95 per night...... For a weekend maybe that would be okay but not sure id wanna spend nearly £700 in a week? If i spent only half that a day on weed here id be getting through half an ounce a day, when an eigth probs lasts me a week normally. Theres loads of threads on Amsterdam on here ive been meaning to look at as im thinking of going over with a couple of mates later this year
OOOO Stay at CitizenM - we did and loved it. Not sure which coffee houses/cafes we hit, I would have to ask my husband but I love Amsterdam cafe culture. So freaking relaxed and the people are really nice.
i'm calling bullshit.. but if it's true, i've lost all hope in humanity. EDIT: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...o-cannabis-dutch-tell-foreigners-2160631.html
A court ruled that they could if they wanted to. If anything only the European border towns will ban it.
at the end of the trip, everything included i was out a solid 5 large, but you could easily spend much less
Your best bet is really to just search websites like hotels.com or kayak.com The answer you're looking for can greatly vary depending on where and when you want to stay. Just do a search with the dates you think you may be going and you can choose for yourself. You can stay at a hostel for $20 a night or you can stay at the Krasnapolsky for $400 a night. Edit: ehhh I'm realizing maybe you didn't just mean the hotel. I would suggest the same as above for searching for a flight, that can vary a good amount as well. As for everything else, I went for a week a few years ago and quickly went through $1500(not including hotel and airfare). You could get by for less if you had to but not much unless you don't wanna do much.
I just came back from Amsterdam on the 30th. You can still buy weed there, but it's pretty likely that the tourist ban will be in effect by the end of February. Weed is cheap, 10-20 euros/gram. Don't pay 60-70 euros for a gram of anything, even hash. It's a rip off. Not a big drinker, but food is relatively inexpensive. The hotel reservation places by Amsterdam Centraal can set you up with a place in any price range, and the fee isn't outrageous.
LOL, maybe but I don't think the random people on the street were being nice for nonexistant money. It is sort of a shame that they will stop selling to tourists, so I will just have to get my Dutch buddy to buy for me =)
