Travel and transport agencies Amsterdam

Open 7 days a week and with 13 locations in town, renting a bike becomes child's play with Black Bikes! Centraal Station, Amsterdam Zuid, Amsterdam RAI and any part of the city centre, you will always find a shop near you. This professional brand has more than 10 years of experience and qualified staff to guide you towards the optimal type of bike for your visit to the Netherlands. The equipment is also available for rent and if you are satisfied with the equipment, you can even buy a copy on site.

Bike City is one of the best options for renting a bike in Amsterdam. Located at the entrance of the Jordaan, a few blocks from the Central Station, it is a charming store on the Bloemgracht (Flower Canal). The bikes are of very good quality, fully equipped; and several choices are proposed: notably for the braking system (back-pedaling or rim brakes). Note that this is one of the few agencies in the city to offer unmarked bikes, which will allow you to visit the city while blending in with the local population.

This company was the first in Europe to implement the concept of electrically-powered cabs, a success story that has since been replicated in many other countries. Cab Electric offers services that are both ecological and economical: the cost of a trip, powered by electricity, is thus reduced (25% less!), and therefore more competitive than those of all "classic" cab companies, while at the same time being very clean for the environment, which fits in perfectly with the green mentality of Amsterdam and its countless bicycles.

Located 3 meters below sea level, Schiphol is a pleasant airport from which to travel. It offers a range of practical services (tourist office, Holland Tourist Information, currency exchange open from 6 a.m. to 2 a.m.) and even a branch of the Rijksmuseum! In recent years, staff shortages have scratched the airline's image, but the problem seems to have been solved with wage increases for baggage handlers. It is expected to limit its night flights and jets by 2026.

Amsterdam's Cuypers-designed central station, like the Rijksmuseum, serves all the country's major tourist cities. Rotterdam, Utrecht, Maastricht, beautiful Delft, The Hague and other nearby towns. Rotations are very frequent and punctual trains drop you off at the city gates. Fares are high. The station has just inaugurated two superb and incredible underground bike parks, which should be visited even without a bike. The experience is insane and shows that when it comes to mobility, the Netherlands is king.

In addition to bike rentals, the company also offers guided tours of Amsterdam in English. A daily departure for an organized tour at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. (in high season). There are now 5 rental points: Waterlooplein (flea market), the train station (Ruijterkade 34b), Vondelpark (Overtoom 45), and Oosterdokskade 63A (underground bicycle garage). There's always a MacBike nearby in Amsterdam. You can also rent children's bikes, tandems and cargo bikes. This is a reference address.

Located two minutes from Dam, it offers the same services as the French post (at higher prices).

Check-in counters: Halls 2 and 3.

This cab service links the airport with the whole of the Netherlands. It's a service deployed through the airport itself, a guarantee of reliability. So it's the service of choice for journeys to and from Amsterdam airport (Schiphol). Reservations are made easily online, where you enter your flight number and the number of baggage items. It's a service that will make your life easier and your trip more stress-free, which is a nice touch. To keep the bill down, you can also choose to share a cab.

Book Yoga Retreat is the reference site for spiritual retreats and yoga courses all over the world. It lists thousands of retreats in every corner of the globe, including India and Greece, which are particularly popular destinations for women travelers looking for this type of retreat. Under the headings "Yoga courses for women of color", "Yoga courses" and "Yoga courses for lesbians", you'll find women-only retreats to suit your needs and desires.

An ideal place to start your journey on two wheels. You can easily rent different kinds of good quality bicycles to ride around the city in complete safety. And that at a rather low price, which is very pleasant. You can also have a coffee and a panini before going on the road, which is quite pleasant. They will be able to advise you on how to proactively discover the city in all its richness and diversity. The shop also offers group tours, including a tour that will take you to the local farms.

Yes, you will be fine on a blue bike, or with another colour, very visible too. This company rents many bikes, from modern to beach cruiser, from the traditional Dutch bike to the hybrid bike... In short, there's no shortage of choices. Children's bikes are available as well as a large number of guided tours with many themes, most of them by reservation. The welcome is warm and the prices are among the cheapest in the city. Accessories are at your disposal (baby seat, disposable raincoat)

An ideal address for all your bike problems, ideal also for investing in a second-hand model. Recycle distinguishes itself in the repair and renovation of old bicycles and prides itself on being a "social" employer that appeals to the long-term unemployed and offers them a new entry into the labour market. The setting alone, in the heart of the new De Hallen centre, is worth the trip. A typical address in Amsterdam, interesting for several reasons. Feel free to have a drink at the Hallen just across the street!
