Accessible Travel to Amsterdam
By John Sage
Disabled access in Amsterdam is better than other bridged cities like Venice, but still presents accessibility challenges like the sometimes inaccessible trams. Cobblestones and stairs to enter restaurants or reach bathrooms will also present challenges for disabled visitors. Overall, Amsterdam disabled access is good enough that disabled visitors, with enough planning, should have a wonderful time visiting the capital city of Holland. Our Amsterdam Disabled Access Review describes the best and worst of Amsterdam accessibility.
