From historic sights to progressive politics, the Netherlands offers endless sights and activities, and no one knows how to experience it all without wasting time and money better than Rick Steves and Gene Openshaw. They cover the famous destinations, such as the Anne Frank House and the Red Light District, as well as a number of off-the-beaten path options that will take travelers away from the city and into a countryside filled with windmills and old farm houses. So whether it's enjoying Flemish art in Bruges or some of the world's best marijuana in Amsterdam, Rick Steves' Amsterdam, Bruges & Brussels leads the way. Review: It helped me out - I used this book on a recent trip to Brussels and Amsterdam. This book actually talks about other areas in the BeNeLux region, including Delft, Flanders Fields, Ghent, The Hague, etc., so it's probably worth at least a look if you're not necessarily going to the cities named in the title. This book is up to the usual standards. I am a big fan of Steves' work. Any mistakes I make in my travel usually come from deviating from his advice and instructions. Rick and his partners clearly love and respect these areas and go out of their way to help tourists really experience them. The history sections are always well written and enjoyable. The tips on traveling and getting tickets saves time, time I can spend enjoying the sights. The walkthroughs on museums and cities are really helpful and flesh out the experience. I can honestly say this book enhanced my vacation and that's exactly what I want it to do. That's how I used this book. I didn't use it so much for restaurants and hotels. But for everything else I find them extremely useful and enjoyable to read. If anything, this one just gave me motivation to go back! Review: Insider info for your trip - My fiancee and I used this book on our trip to Amsterdam and Bruge and it paid for itself in transportation savings. Whether by alerting us to the use of stippenkart for the trams or the easiest way to use public transportation to get to the main train station so we didn't have to use a taxi (again) and pay an obscene fee, we were in the know and grateful to be so. I already had a good idea of what I wanted to see in Amsterdam, but reading through the book gave me great ideas for some other unusual things to see (tour an actual private houseboat in the canals and the pipe museum, the low down on the "coffe shops"). Yeah, you'll look like a typical tourist dweeb carting this thing around everywhere, but the cultural notes and extra goodies you'll see from doing so are well worth it. Great example: one day we stumbled on the Red Light District on our own and wandered around and checked things out. Later we studied the map and details the author had laid out for the "Red Light District Walk" and thought Woo-ee! We missed the good stuff! We went back and saw some great things we would have otherwise missed. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #555,286 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #14 in Brussels Travel Guides #30 in General Belgium Travel Guides #46 in Amsterdam Travel Guides | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 258 Reviews | ## Images ![Rick Steves Amsterdam, Bruges & Brussels - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71poI5SGTOL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It helped me out *by J***H on May 31, 2014* I used this book on a recent trip to Brussels and Amsterdam.

Whether by alerting us to the use of stippenkart for the trams or the easiest way to use public transportation to get to the main train station so we didn't have to use a taxi (again) and pay an obscene fee, we were in the know and grateful to be so.

This book was very helpful, but not my favorite. Positives: 1. The walking tours are a great way to get acquainted with the city and pick and choose what you want to do as you go along. You can have a half to whole day of informative touring while spending very little cash or having to pay for a tour. 2. The tips about prices and what days to visit things are helpful. 3. His hand drawn maps are always great to follow. 4. Back ground info about history and different sites is interesting. 5. Take his advice about using cash instead of credit! I didn't believe him, but he was spot on. Negatives: 1. He focuses too much on art and art museums which can get a bit tiresome. 2. He talks down about some of the more touristy sites which are actually quite fun (Madam Troussands, Heineken Experience, Zanse Schans). 3. The sections about food and restaurants are really focused on saving money rather than eating well. I don't want to eat in a mall food court just because it's cheap. 4. The TV version of this book is also one of his more boring episodes. I would suggest using this for the walking tours and supplementing with Lonely Planet. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/1632663-rick-steves-amsterdam-bruges-and-brussels](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/1632663-rick-steves-amsterdam-bruges-and-brussels) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-06-24*
