Amsterdam. A city of beauty, a city of wonder, a city that never sleeps. With all of those qualities, is it any wonder that an Amsterdam Hen Do is one of the most popular European hen weekends that you can arrange? It really is one of the premier hen weekend locations for you to visit and enjoy, no matter what you want your hen do to contain. Some destinations specialise in certain types of hen do, but an Amsterdam Hen Do can be absolutely anything that you or the hen want, so it should be the top of any possible list of hen do destinations.
There are so many wonderful places to stay throughout the city depending on what sort of atmosphere and scenery you’d like to enjoy on your Amsterdam Hen Do. The city is divided into neighbourhoods, each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages, and there are three in particular that come highly recommended. The Old Centre is beautiful and close to the main sights, the museum quarter is full of culture and excitement, and Grachtengordel South (which includes such popular areas as Leidseplein and Rembrandtplein) puts you in the heart of the popular bar and pub district. All of these areas can also offer you a huge variety of accommodation options, so whether you want to relax in an apartment, take over a hotel, or even sleep on a boat, Amsterdam has the wherewithal to make it a reality.
Given the city’s party-hard reputation, you know that the nights out are going to be absolutely amazing. But what about the daytimes? What are the most popular activities on an Amsterdam Hen Do? We’d be remiss if we didn’t first mention the unique and world-famous beer bike (which also comes with a prosecco option, if that is more your thing!) Absolutely one of the most popular activities for an Amsterdam Hen Do, you’ll pedal the multi-person bike around being shown the sights and sounds of the city while drinking a few glasses, always a great idea!
There are plenty of other ways to see the city as well. You can cruise through the city’s famous canals and take in all the sights and sounds, or if you are feeling energetic you can arrange a cycle tour of the city. These are just a couple of the location-specific activities that will really make your Amsterdam Hen Do feel special. Other options include learning how to do some fire breathing (which should make you a hit at any other party you attend in the future) as well as posing for a red light photoshoot – after all, everyone knows about the full length windows in the red light district, wouldn’t it be fun to have photos of yourselves posing in them?
Obviously there are many other activities that you can include on your Amsterdam Hen Do as well – no matter what your likes or wants. Cupcake Making is a nice relaxing afternoon, Dance Classes are energetic and fun, and cocktail making is the thing that everyone always loves to do at some point on a hen do! There are so many other activities that I’ve not mentioned yet, and as you can see from this page, there are loads more that we offer.
Nightlife is a highlight of an Amsterdam Hen Do. And you know that, because when you first read the words “Amsterdam Hen Do” the thing that you pictured was going out drinking and dancing until you can’t stand any more. Well that’s good news, because a night out in Amsterdam is one you will always remember. This city is an absolutely amazing night out. Filled with some of the most high-energy bars and clubs that you have ever encountered, and with an atmosphere that you have to experience to believe, your nights out in Amsterdam will be nothing short of magical.
We know that it can be tough going out in a strange city – you need to figure out where to start and where is best to visit. Well don’t worry, our guided bar crawl will help with that, it’s our single most popular activity in Amsterdam and for good reason, the guides know exactly where to go for the most fun on any given night. If you want some other evening activities, then we have a great selection of those as well, with options like a Drag Queen Dinner, a trip to a Comedy Club and a night in a private Karaoke booth just some of the many options that hen parties take advantage of all year round.
One of the reasons for the immense popularity of an Amsterdam Hen Do comes down to convenience. It is one of the easiest European destinations to get to, as it is served by over twenty airports in the UK. With that in mind (and considering that the flights can be very reasonably priced if you book them in advance), it is no surprise that so many hen parties visit Amsterdam every year to lose themselves in the excitement and wonder.
The convenience continues when you are in the city itself, as it offers a range of public transport to help you get around while you are there. Trams, buses and metros are all easy to find, easy to navigate and won’t break the bank – so no matter where in this city filled with wonder that you want to get to, you’ll have no problems doing so.
There you have it. An Amsterdam Hen Do is seeming like the best idea ever right now, isn’t it? Why not get us to tailor make you a quote so that you can be on your way.
