I've been wanting to go to Amsterdam with my girlfriend for a while now but the prices scare me. I've seen that hotels are crazy expensive and so is the food. Has anyone been there recently and can tell me if it's worth it or if there are any tricks to save money?
The smartest thing is to go in low season (November to March) because prices drop quite a bit and hotels aren't nearly as packed 🏨 Amsterdam is still expensive, but if you stay a little outside the center and eat at local cafés instead of tourist restaurants, the difference is huge. A typical pub or a Dutch pancake costs way less than what you see in the guidebooks. And honestly, if you both share a room and cook something at the hostel or Airbnb, the costs go down massively. It's worth it, but you gotta be strategic about where you spend your money 😄
