A Guide To Your Amsterdam Hen Weekend

Where to Drink in Amsterdam

There's too much. There's JUST TOO MUCH! It's easy to find somewhere to drink in Amsterdam, but you'll need to do your research to find the district that'll suit your tastes the most.

De Pijp is an alternative paradise where everything has an edge, in the best way! You can find dimly lit minimalist bars opposite extravagant underground cocktail lounges bursting with character. You're also right near the Heineken Experience (oh yeah!).

NDSM-Werf's industrial aesthetic is camera-ready and uber relaxed when it comes to drinking. The hangouts here have graffitied walls and exposed bricks which always seems to make the drinks taste better! Jordaan is what you think of when you think of hen partying in the Dam - canal-side eateries and outdoor seating amongst bicycles and locals alike.

Sights

Sights
A highly educated city of wonderful contrasts (did you know 83% of the population can speak 3 languages?) there is so much to see and do. From the incredibly moving Anne Frank's House to the treacherous Amsterdam Dungeon or of course the renowned Sex Museum.
Two of Amsterdam's most famous trades can be found in the Red Light District and in its world-famous jewellery/diamond shops.

Sounds

Sounds
You certainly won't be lost for tunes. Amsterdam has a massive dance music scene and some of the best clubs on the continent. However, some are definitely better than others so be careful and make sure you don't waste time in a bad venue. We'll arrange Guest List Night Club entry for your entire party at one of the hottest venues in town.

Shopping in Amsterdam

I Love Vintage - If you love chic, vintage European style then head to I Love Vintage. This is quite possibly the coolest shop in Amsterdam. A city with a lot of great shops.
Red Light District - If you're looking for any Shades of Grey tools or toys then there is plenty on offer in Amsterdam's Red Light District.
What's Hot - Amsterdam loves its fashion and you'll find plenty of great independent boutiques spread around the city centre. The city is also renowned for its diamonds and has some incredible jewellery shops.

Getting Around Amsterdam

Amsterdam has masses of really great transport links. The problem isn't finding them but avoiding them, bikes, trams, trains, taxis, rickshaws, and all manner of sneaky eco-friendly transport glides silently along the streets so keep an eye on any hungover hens.
If you want to try a little pedal power, you can hire bikes for as little as €8 per day. Alternatively, an OV travel card (or 'chipkaart') allows you unlimited travel on trams, trains, metro, and buses and can be bought online prior to arrival.

Hen Days

This is most definitely a city with a sense of humour, if you're after laughs then not only does Amsterdam not take itself too seriously, it wants the world to laugh along too. You can dive right into the fun with a Striptease Workshop, Bubbly Bike Tour (yes, a bike and plenty of bottles of fizz), Go Karting, Canal Boat Tour, or visit one of the many museums. There are plenty of unsual Amsterdam activities to choose from.

Hen Nights

There are no two ways about, Amsterdam is one of the most fun-loving cities on the planet!!! There's so many reasons 1000s of hens and stags (Don't forget to refer the guys to StagWeb! Our brother company.) flock here annually. Known for its naughty nature and love of wacky-bacci, many overlook the massive dance scene (it's home to Europe's largest dance music festival). From Drag Queen Dinners to Guest List Night Club Entry or a Guided Bar Crawl, you're in for one suitably wild weekend.

Follow the signs to De 9 Straatjes for a series of picturesque lanes, vintage stores and cosy pavement cafes perfect for picking up a quirky memento, and if you fancy a Fifth Avenue meets catwalks of Milan type trip, then grab the girls and head across to the uber-swanky P.C Hooftstraat, where you can plan to spend your year's salary on the likes of Louis Vitton, Gucci and the city's only selection of Louboutins.
