Trams in Amsterdam are a fun and convenient way to get around the city. In this detailed guide we’ll give you the lowdown on all aspects of Amsterdam tram travel.
Whilst central Amsterdam is easily explored on foot, hopping onto a tram provides a nice rest when you’re tired and offers a scenic ride around Amsterdam streets.
Trams in Amsterdam are operated by GVB (Gemeente Vervoer Bedrijf), the municipal public transport company of the city. Trams can connect you onto other forms of public transport in Amsterdam including bus, metro and trains.
GVB trams are a distinctive blue and white in colour.
Amsterdam Tram Travel in a nutshell

Amsterdam Tram Lines
There are 15 Amsterdam tram lines with 500 stops and a total track length of 200km.
6 of the 15 GVB tram lines operate from Amsterdam Centraal Station and most of these lines are quite useful to visitors.
There are 3 tram stop areas at Amsterdam Central station – A and B on the city side (southern exit) and C at the northern IJ waterfront side.
On the eastern side are the A stops (A1-A4) for tram services generally south- and east-bound. On the western side are the B stops (B1-B4) for services south- and west-bound.
The C stop at the north-eastern IJ waterfront side has the IJburg tram 26 – although stop A is being used temporarily.
Below is a full listing of the tram lines in Amsterdam with the main stops of interest highlighted.

Amsterdam Tram Tickets
There are various options for buying GVB Amsterdam tram tickets. Essentially, you can either pay for your single journey or buy a multi-day ticket which can offer significantly greater value. All passengers aged 4 or over must have their own ticket, whilst children 0-3 travel free.
Travel using any type of ticket requires that you check-in and check-out of your tram journey by holding it or scanning it onto the special on-board card readers – located near the tram doors. Your ticket is simply validated on first check-in.
Amsterdam tram single fares
There are essentially 2 types of single fare.
- The standard single 1 hour fare ticket which costs €3.40 in 2026.
- A distance based fare – calculated as a €1.16 boarding fee plus a distance fee of €0.217 per km travelled. Distance fares apply when using a contactless payment option (OVpay) or an OV-chip card.
Distance fares are generally always cheaper than the standard single unless you are making a longer journey with connections.
For example, Amsterdam Central to Leidspelein on the tram costs €1.68 on a distance basis, less than half the price of the standard single.
If you only need to make 1 or 2 journeys by tram then consider OVpay – that is using a contactless debit/credit card or mobile to check-in and check-out.
Your account will be billed as a single transaction at the end of the day with a capped maximum daily fee of €10 (GVB Max).
If using OVpay ensure you check-out cleanly, otherwise you could be charged the penalty deposit fare of €4. Do not hold more than 1 card against the reader or you may be charged for multiple cards.
You should always check your OVpay charges on the statement from your financial provider.
We no longer recommend the OV-chip card (public transport smart card) for short-term visitors as it costs €7.50 (non-refundable) and to which credit needs to be added. You always need a minimum of €4 credit to travel by tram with an OV-chip card.
The OV-chip card is being slowly phased out and a new OV-Pas with more digital features is being introduced in 2026.
GVB multiday tickets
The cost-per-ride of a GVB multiday ticket can be significantly lower than standard one-way tariffs.
There are 2 other multi-day tickets available which are essentially an upgraded version of the GVB ticket and can be also used on Amsterdam trams.
The Amsterdam Travel Ticket (GVB day ticket + airport journey) and the Amsterdam & Region Travel Ticket (GVB day ticket + all regional transport). This table summarises the features:
| Good for AMS airport | Best for Excursions |
 |  |
| Amsterdam Travel Ticket | Amsterdam & Region Travel Ticket |
| 1/2/3 days | 1/2/3 days |
| €20/€27/€34 | €23/€34/€44 |
| Valid on all GVB transport (trams/metro/buses) in Amsterdam | Valid on all GVB transport (trams/metro/buses) in Amsterdam |
| Valid between airport and city – train or 397 bus | Valid between airport and city – train or 397 bus |
| Valid on trains between any Amsterdam stations | Valid on regional NS trains + EBS/Connexxion/allGo buses in region |
| Calendar day basis | Calendar day basis |
| Card only (not digital) | Card only (not digital) |
| Order here | Order here |
Do note that these 2 cards are valid on a calendar day basis and not 24 hours like the GVB multiday ticket.
How to buy GVB tram tickets
- You can buy multiday tickets (1-7 days) online in advance with instant download.
- Buy 1 hour and 1 day tickets only from the conductor booth at the rear of trams – card payment only.
- Buy all tickets from GVB Tickets & Service at main stations.
- Buy selected tickets at GVB ticket machines, GVB service points or using the GVB app.
Finally, don’t be tempted to travel without a valid ticket as there are teams of agents on the network doing regular checks – an on-the-spot fine of €70 could apply.

Amsterdam Tram Types
GVB has a fleet of 227 trams in total. The majority are the 13G Siemens Combino series trams (151 units) which came into service between 2001 and 2005. These are mostly coloured blue and white but a few may also have advertising on them.
The 13G series has 55 seats with capacity for 76 standing passengers.
There are 4 units of the special 14G Siemens Combino which are bidirectional – with 52 seats and 99 standing passengers.
The newer series is the 15G CAF Urbos 100 bi-directional trams of which there are 72 units. These are either with the standard blue and white GVB livery colours or they are silver-grey with R-NET branding. These were delivered between 2019 and 2022.
They have 50 seats with capacity for 125 standing passengers.
How to Use a Tram in Amsterdam
Boarding Amsterdam trams
You can enter an Amsterdam tram (Siemens Combino-type) by the front door near the driver or the double doors second from the back near the conductor’s booth. Do not try to board a tram from the other exit doors which have a ‘no entry’ sticker.
The newer generation of trams by CAF (in use on lines 5/19/24/25) have a different configuration and you can enter/exit from any door.
You should check-in with your ticket, bank card or mobile against the card reader. A single beep will sound if check-in is successful; an error beep is given with yellow screen if not successful – in that case just try again. Note that QR codes should be scanned face-up underneath the reader.
After check-in move away from the door area and find a place to sit or stand.
Amsterdam tram seats
Amsterdam trams are generally designed to take more standing passengers than sitting ones. If you are lucky you may be able to find a vacant seat – the highest density of seats is found near the front of the vehicle.
Standard seats are coloured blue; note that the red seats are marked as priority seats for people who need them. There is also space on board for wheelchair users.
You will see lots of areas to stand with bars to hold on to.
The newer series trams have black and white standard seating and red priority seats.
How to exit a GVB tram in Amsterdam
Getting off an Amsterdam (Siemens Combino) tram can be a little tricky as there are 4 elements to navigate. You (or another passenger) need to press the stop button to notify the driver to stop – you should see a red light marked ‘STOP’ switch on.
At the exit you need to push a green button to open the doors, check-out cleanly with your ticket and then watch for the swing doors as well.
We see lots of passengers (locals and visitors alike) having problems with these steps! Particularly with people unable to check-out cleanly and holding up the exit queue – then the doors can start closing automatically.
The onboard swing doors can also swing back violently – we have seen the occasional passenger drop something at the exit and reach down only to get whacked in the head by the swing door. Be especially careful with young children.
The key to a clean exit is to check-out a little in advance. You can do this by moving towards the door and then check-out with your ticket just after the penultimate stop. On successful check-out the card reader should beep twice.
You then only need to navigate the door/swing door to make your exit.
The newer CAF trams are easier to deal with as there are no swing barriers and you can exit from any door.
Amsterdam Tram Schedules
Trams run daily from around 6am (weekdays) and 7am (weekends) to just after midnight. They do not run for 24 hours.
You can find tram line maps and timetables at any tram stop, with stops having electronic boards telling you the next departing services.
During the day frequency is around 5-8 services per hour (depending on the line) which reduces to 3-4 times per hour in the evenings and at weekends. You should never have to wait too long for the next tram.
Note that occasional maintenance work can cause tram routes to be diverted slightly.
The trams have a top speed of 70km/h – however they make frequent stops and have to cut through traffic and stop lights – so they are not always the quickest way of getting around town.
The Amsterdam Metro is faster, particularly the North-South line 52 which runs down the central spine of the city.
Timetables and travel planners can be found at GVB’s website, the GVB app and online at 9292.nl. Alternatively, Google Maps, Apple maps and Citymapper have live transport info as well.
There are screens on-board the trams giving live stop info.
Amsterdam Tram Map
GVB has online maps available here (including downloadable pdf maps).
You can also ask for paper maps at one of the GVB Service desks which are located at Amsterdam Central, Bijlmer-ArenA, Noord and Zuid stations.
History of Amsterdam Trams
Trams have been an integral part of Amsterdam since 1875 and GVB has been running tram services since 1943.
Articulated trams were first introduced in Amsterdam during the 1950s.
Each Amsterdam tram line was given a designated colour logo in the form of a square. This was to help people recognise the line number who could not read. Even today the colour logos are still in use next to the number on the trams.
Here are a few images of the older series of trams used over the years in Amsterdam:
Historical tram rides in Amsterdam
Electric Museumtramline Amsterdam is an organisation which preserves some of the city’s historical trams. It runs two lines at weekends which gives the opportunity to ride some pre-war trams.
Line 20 is a circular route which makes a loop around Amsterdam’s canal district. The journey starts at Dam Square and takes 30 minutes (no stops). It only runs on weekends during the April to October high season. Tickets cost €10 for adults, €5 for children 4-11.
There is also Heritage Line 30 which runs from Haarlemmermeer station (at Amstelveenseweg 264, get there using GVB tram 2) to Parklaan in Amstelveen.
Along the way you pass the Olympic Stadium, the Amsterdamse Bos (forest park) and the ANNA brewery. The tram runs every half-hour on Sundays between April and October.
Return tickets cost €7.50 for adults, €5 for children 4-11 and you can get off at any stop and continue on the next tram.
Amsterdam Tram FAQ
Are Amsterdam trams wheelchair accessible?
Yes, you can ride a tram in Amsterdam using a wheelchair. Use GVB’s travel planner and toggle on ‘Accessible Journey’ under extra options. This will tell you the best way to make your journey using only accessible transport vehicles and stops.
Can I take a bicycle on board a tram in Amsterdam?
No you cannot take bikes on board trams in Amsterdam. The exception is IJburg tram 26 which allows bikes outside the rush hours 07:00-09:00 and 16:00-18:30.
Is it cheaper to use an OV-chipkaart than a debit card?
No, distance fares are the same whether you use OVpay (contactless payments) or a personal/anonymous OV-chipkaart.
However, multiday tickets are the cheapest per ride if used well.

Tram 2 was actually listed by National Geographic in 2010 as one of the top 10 ‘trolley’ (tramway) rides in the world.
The first half of the route is undoubtedly scenic as it passes some of Amsterdam’s prime tourist areas – Dam Square, Spui/Koningsplein, the historic canal ring, Leidseplein, Museumplein and the Museum Quarter around Vondelpark.
There is no real need to ride beyond the Westlandgracht stop however – as it then continues through a more modern and less scenic residential area.
