It was very useful to have train tickets in advance as saved time and we needed them to dump our luggage at the station before exploring Amsterdam. My only criticism is that they were only supplied online and this made it difficult to share as you need a ticket each to get through the barriers. I managed to print but had to cut and stick together! Or you can use screenshots....

The driver was very kind to us. He was the reason why my score is the highest. The journey was simply ok, nothing good or bad remarkable. HOWEVER, the experience with headout was not that good because of too reasons: - first, the price of the tickets was 6.50 € each (I bought 3 units because we were 3 people) but in my bank account the charged amount has been 21.00€ instead of the 19.50€ that I expected. I looked for any tax explanation but is not. - Second, I expected either a QR ticket or an online ticket (or similar) straight forward after buying instead of having just a booking confirmation (so I don't need to go anywhere to get them). Fortunately, the driver was very understanding.

Any problems with the ticketing were quickly resolved with the Information guys on the north side of the Centraal Station. Except they did not advise that the 'Night Watch' was serving time, jailed on a scaffold! We found that the larger and more famous museums were poorer bangs for bucks/time and a more wonderful experience could be found in the constellation. of smaller museums in between. Here was to be found the greatest value of the card. Especially if you rest your feet by taking a picnic on the free canal cruise.

Use of the card was very convenient and covered a lot of attractions. The only negative was that you advertised that the card included the Van Gogh museum and it did not. The person at the desk said this changed a year and a half ago. You should update your website. Even though we paid for Van Gogh the card was a good savings.

We were 4 adults and stayed in Monnickendamm for two nights to explore Amsterdam. It was easy to travel by bus and credit card to the North Station. From there, use the card to the city center. We all had the app on our cell phones. So it was convenient. In two days we visited the Rjiksmuseum, the Rembrand House, a canal cruise and the Old and New Church. That was enough and everything was included in the card. I think we saved a bit on the high entrance fees and above all it was convenient!

I had no idea how to use the app to book tickets for the Rijksmuseum and the Anne Frank tour we went on, and I had no idea we needed to book the Anne Frank House and the Van Gogh Museum so far in advance. (And how would we have done it without actiating our card???) The only thing we were able to use the app for was Moco, the museum of contemporary art .

Any problems with the ticketing were quickly resolved with the Information guys on the north side of the Centraal Station. Except they did not advise that the 'Night Watch' was serving time, jailed on a scaffold! We found that the larger and more famous museums were poorer bangs for bucks/time and a more wonderful experience could be found in the constellation. of smaller museums in between. Here was to be found the greatest value of the card. Especially if you rest your feet by taking a picnic on the free canal cruise.

Use of the card was very convenient and covered a lot of attractions. The only negative was that you advertised that the card included the Van Gogh museum and it did not. The person at the desk said this changed a year and a half ago. You should update your website. Even though we paid for Van Gogh the card was a good savings.

We were 4 adults and stayed in Monnickendamm for two nights to explore Amsterdam. It was easy to travel by bus and credit card to the North Station. From there, use the card to the city center. We all had the app on our cell phones. So it was convenient. In two days we visited the Rjiksmuseum, the Rembrand House, a canal cruise and the Old and New Church. That was enough and everything was included in the card. I think we saved a bit on the high entrance fees and above all it was convenient!

The driver was very kind to us. He was the reason why my score is the highest. The journey was simply ok, nothing good or bad remarkable. HOWEVER, the experience with headout was not that good because of too reasons: - first, the price of the tickets was 6.50 € each (I bought 3 units because we were 3 people) but in my bank account the charged amount has been 21.00€ instead of the 19.50€ that I expected. I looked for any tax explanation but is not. - Second, I expected either a QR ticket or an online ticket (or similar) straight forward after buying instead of having just a booking confirmation (so I don't need to go anywhere to get them). Fortunately, the driver was very understanding.

(And how would we have done it without actiating our card???) The only thing we were able to use the app for was Moco, the museum of contemporary art .

Any problems with the ticketing were quickly resolved with the Information guys on the north side of the Centraal Station.

We found that the larger and more famous museums were poorer bangs for bucks/time and a more wonderful experience could be found in the constellation. of smaller museums in between. Here was to be found the greatest value of the card. Especially if you rest your feet by taking a picnic on the free canal cruise.

We are tourist's from India and before reaching we saw You Tube videos on how to get the passes and one such was so informative we got to know about T-casual & others too. But on getting off at Terminal C of Terminal2( Easyjet) there were no indication of ticketing machines and the metro starts at Terminal A( Rayan Air) which is quite a distance.We were forced to take Aerobus to Universitat and later we got passes from the machines placed in that station.But,we enjoyed uninterrupted travel..Good job

I have used a pass similar to this before and it is great for getting around the city and the transport network seems to work really well. What wasn't easy was using the pass to get through the gates, (I think a paper pass works better). The pass did not work at all when I tried using it for the mainline train, (return trip to/from airport), and I had to persuade the staff at the station to let me through.

After some initial difficulties, everything went smoothly with the ticket. The ticket that was sent to us for our wallet did not work at the barriers.

It was only when we wrote to the Headup support team that we were sent the working tickets via a link.

Despite using the app for scanning the tickets when using the metro with an andrioid phone, we were still charged on our card. Because of this, we are now in the process of having to go through the refund process with GVB which is a huge inconvenience. It worked well on the iPhone with no extra charges, however if it's not possible to do with the android phone due to the potential double charge, then this should clearly be stated upon purchasing the ticket and we would have chosen to purchase the ticket through GVB directly.

It was not possible to scan our e-ticket via the Headout app when entering an GVB transport like tram. There was no QR Code in the headout App. The PDF ticket I got per eMail worked 80%. The QR codes in the email ticket were supported but caused problems a few times. At the GVB Infopoint near Amsterdam Central Station the staff couldn't help with the app. It was not possible to import the tickets to the getyourguide / GVB / GOOGLE wallet or headout app correctly. The tickets were Valid so the GVB personal recommended if we had problems scanning the tickets at entering the tram to complain to the tram personal. But we shouldn't use the metro because when there is a problem we couldn't explain to GVB staff directly. So it was an adventure we didn't book. The ticket was Valid but didn't work as expected because it wasn't possible to import it the headout app correctly as recommended in the email.
