How much will you need for a day in Amsterdam?

1 week in Amsterdam, how much money you would need ?

• Hey I'm going to 1 week trip to amsterdam with my friends and i'm not sure how much money i should bring with me the flight tickets and hotel are already paid. So i would want to know how much money you would need if you plan to visit coffee shops and bars , how much public transport costs would you survive on 50€ per day budget ?

• Answer:

  You can get by on €50 per day, but it will be tight if you want to live as a tourist. In the center of Amsterdam you do not need public transport, and when you use it it should be around €5 per day. Beer can be from €2 to €5 per glas, depending on where you drink it, a pint is more than two glasses. Lunch, loaf of bread, some toppings and drinks from the supermarket will be about €10 for the 4 of you, but if you go for a sit down lunch on a street side cafe, €15 each is more likely. Dinner, restaurants do start from €25, it is very easy to find a place where you will spend more than €50 each. There are cheaper options, like a slice of pizza or a 'kroket en patat met' from the febo, but it will be less than healthy and might not be that much cheaper if you have a good appitite. You see that your €50 per day are used before you even think about the coffee shops, and allowing for about one beer in a pub. If you can, bring €100 per day, Amsterdam is an expensive city.
