At TipsAmsterdam.co.uk, we share practical information and local inspiration for visitors who want to discover Amsterdam. We write about things to do, neighbourhoods, restaurants, cafés, museums, events, nightlife, day trips, hotels and useful city tips.
On this page, we explain how we create content, how we choose topics and how we deal with partners, collaborations and affiliate links.
Our goal
Our goal is to help visitors experience Amsterdam in a useful, enjoyable and realistic way. Some readers are planning their first trip and want to know what is worth their time. Others already know the city and are looking for better restaurants, local hangouts, seasonal events or less obvious ideas.
We try to make our content practical and easy to use, so readers can plan their visit with more confidence.
How we choose topics
We choose topics based on what visitors genuinely need when planning a trip, weekend or day out in Amsterdam. This can include well-known sights, museums, restaurants, neighbourhoods, markets, events, transport, nightlife, hotels and local experiences.
We look at:
- How useful the topic is for visitors
- The location and accessibility
- The atmosphere and local relevance
- Who the place, activity or tip is suitable for
- Whether the information is practical and current
- The overall impression of a place, activity or provider
Local knowledge and research
Part of our content is based on our own experiences, local knowledge, visits, photos and impressions. We may also use information from official websites, venues, providers, tourism organisations and other reliable sources.
Amsterdam changes quickly. Opening hours, prices, routes, events, availability and booking conditions can change. That is why we always recommend checking important details with the official provider before you go or book.
How we select places and providers
When we mention activities, restaurants, hotels, tours, tickets or providers, we look at whether they fit the topic and the reader’s intent.
A canal cruise may fit well in a first-time Amsterdam guide. A neighbourhood café may be more useful in a local food article. A hotel recommendation should match the area, budget or type of trip being discussed.
We aim to give readers options that make sense, not just a long list of links.
Affiliate links and collaborations
Some links on TipsAmsterdam.co.uk may be affiliate links. This means we may receive a commission if you click through and then buy a ticket, book an activity, reserve a hotel or complete another action.
This does not change the price for you. You can read more on our Affiliate Disclosure page.
Editorial freedom
We want our content to stay useful, clear and honest. A commercial partnership or affiliate commission may influence which links are included, but we keep editorial control over what we publish.
Our content is meant as inspiration and practical guidance. The final choice of activity, restaurant, hotel, event or provider is always yours.
