Solo traveler to Amsterdam? You need these 4 tips before you go (plus 3 I couldn't fit in the video!). I felt incredibly safe here, but being prepared is key. 👇 💡 ESSENTIAL SOLO TIPS: Pre-Book Everything: Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh, and Anne Frank Huis tickets sell out weeks in advance. Book before you leave Pittsburgh! Master Public Transport: The city is huge! Forget cycling in the center. Use Google Maps and OVpay (tap to pay with your card) to master the Trams and Metros. Bike Lane Rule: Always look three times before crossing. The red lane is not a sidewalk. They will ding you! Wander Time: Schedule time to simply wander the quiet canals (Jordaan is perfect!)—it's the best part of traveling solo. 🤫 BONUS TIPS: Dining Alone: Most Dutch restaurants are welcoming to solo travelers. For a quick, casual bite, try Foodhallen (indoor market) or a cozy brown cafe (traditional pub). Safety Word: If you feel unsafe in a bar or club, ask the bartender for an "Angela Shot"—this is a secret code that signals staff to help you discreetly. Go Cashless: Amsterdam is nearly 100% cashless. Don't carry a lot of cash, and use Apple Pay/credit cards for everything to minimize pickpocket risk. What's your biggest travel safety concern?
