 The Amsterdam Metro by Paul2001
A single ticket for the metro is a whopping 3 Euros but this gets you a ride for at least 1.5hrs where you can tranfer onto either a tram or bus. If the cost seems expensive, consider that you can purchase a 24 hour, 48 hour and 72 hour ticket for a much more reasonable cost of 6.30 Euros, 10.00 Euros and 13.00 Euros. Tickets are available at each metro station. You have to punch your ticket at a machine upon boarding. There are also kiosk throughout the city were you can buy tickets. The website posted below is one of the best that I have ever visited concerning city transport. It even has an English page.

ALL the metrolines in Amsterdam are stopping at the same places in Amsterdam-centre:
**1 Central Station (startingpoint: every metro-line goes to the south)
**2 Nieuwmarkt (an old part of Amsterdam)
**3 Waterlooplein (Waterloo-square, close to the market)
**4 Weesperplein (close to the "Magere brug", the small beautifull bridge)
**5 Wibautstraat
**6 Amstelstation (after Amstelstation: the different lines take different routes)
You only have to look after, is what way you want to go, to the north (Central Station), or to the south of the centre (every other station).
** From Central Station till Amstelstation will only take 7-10 minutes.
** The first metro goes around 06.15 o'clock (saterdays 06.45; sundays 07.45), the last metro goes around 00.30 (every day). On holidays: same as on sundays. (timetable spring 2008) Theme: Subway/Metro

Amsterdam Metro system is not really a true Metro system in that the majority of lines run overground with only the central sections (strangely enough around Centraal Station) actually running underground. The Metro system has 4 lines, with a fifth currently under construction, allowing a rapid transit system out into the suburbs especially during peak periods.
Of the 4 present lines, 3 run from Centraal Station - lines 51,53 and 54 to Westwijk, Gaasperplas and Gein respectively; whilst line 50 runs from from Isolatorweg via Sloterdijk out to the A10 ring road and Gein.
As with the tram and bus system ticketing comes under the same integrated system and tickets are interchangable.

The metro is managed by the GVB, the Amsterdam Transport Authority also managing the local trams, busses and ferries.
These are the Amsterdam Metro lines:
-50 -Isolaterweg-Gein
-51 -Central Station-Westwijk
-53 -Centraal Station-Gaasperplas
-54 -Centraal Station-Gein
Like taking a tram or bus you can travel the metro with an "OV Chipkaart".
Amsterdam's subway is under futher development. The Central line will be extended under Het IJ by tunnel to Amsterdam North.

 Train by annieruel
The best way to go there, it's by train.
Il y a dans la ville des tramway qui sont très populaires et peu coûteux pour la place. Le vélo est au premier rang, il est plus facile de circuler de cette façon.
There is in the city a lot of tramway, very popular and not expensive for the place. The bike is the first one, it's easier to circulate in this way. Leave a Comment Theme: Train

the Metro from the airport to Central Station is inexpensive, convenient
and quick. Watch out for where you sit....I did not realize I was in
"first class" so the "ticket checker" kicked me out. Theme: Train
