The museums, the zoo, and there's a lovely craft beer pub/brewery in a windmill that I loved last time I visited...

Then of course there's the coffeeshops if you're that way inclined. Try to avoid the ones in the red light district as they tend to be most expensive.

We're going in January

Been doing some research. Coffee Shops - Grey Area looks like one of the best ones.

Adult Clubs - Club-Paradise and Sameplace are closest to the city centre

Nightcblubs - Trouw is the place and it closes its doors for the last time on 3/1/15. Will be one hell of a weekend.

Have fun!

Was there in february.. As for coffee shops abraxis was great and so was yellow mellow. As a person that would never do any of that stuff out of amsterdam id recommend giving it a go at least at one point

It depends where you are staying really as it can be quite expensive to travel around.

We stayed in and around the bull dog in the red light and just followed the music and sweet smells to best places.

Dont forget to try chips with finely chopped onions & sauces on top sounds weird but its great.

If you haven't been before, you can get the train from the airport and to central station it's every 10 minutes in the day and every hour between 1 and 4am....

After leaving the station main exit cross the bridge ( look out for trams). About 2 blocks down turn left and your in the hart of the red light district. Have a good holiday..

Try the red light tour it gives you an insight of how its run etc the Irish bars are quite expensive but Murphys I found the best just off dame square.

Hope ye have a great time its a fab city oh and (leica)square is where the busiest bars are. Maybe not the correct spelling on this one
