NL - More of Amsterdam


More of Amsterdam across visits ....

A'DAM LOOKOUT 
Karthik, Prashaanth

LOOKOUT 360º Amsterdam is an iconic viewing point in The Netherlands - A’DAM LOOKOUT. For the daredevil in you, LOOKOUT has a further kick with a swing on the roof top that takes you out of the sky. This is Europe’s highest swing. There is a cafe as well at the top, though quite costly, quite timely to help the evening at the top.

Great time guaranteed in summer evenings. This tower gives a grand view of the city of Amsterdam. Entrance fee is 13.50 Euros and one for 19.50 Euros with 2 drinks and a souvenir. There is a phone booth - one inclusive in the entrance fee. Then, get to go in a fast lift with nice lights ! 100m in 8 secs.

Then, the lookout area to view the city. There is a swing - 5 euros per person and need to be booked in advance. We could not do the swing. There is a cafe as well at the top - drinks and light snacks.

Overall, one can plan to spend 2-3 hours in an evening. Don't miss it !

The zoo has got well laid pathway, direction boards.We saw few rare species first time - smallest primates, Sloth, Kangaroos, A show with sealions. They also hosts elephants, lions, lots of birds, a beautiful collection of reptiles, birds and fishes - aquarium.

Overall, the place is very comfortable to visit, great time guaranteed. It would take 3-4 hours. Difficult to see on a rainy day.
