Tickets for Yellow Bike Amsterdam: Bike Rental

You've been to the Rijksmuseum and Anne Frank, taken a canal cruise and gotten yelled at for taking a photo while standing in the bike lane. You've done the tourist thing. What next? Rent a bike and you become an Amsterdammer. Go anywhere, anytime, just like a local. This is your moment.

You've already heard the furious bike bell "GRINGA-RING-GRING-GRING!!" telling you to get the hell out of the bike path. We know: it's terrifying. But now that you already know the rules, it's time to experience Amsterdam from the other side: the bike side.

Everybody in Amsterdam rides a bike. There are more bikes than people in the city, and every day its citizens cycle more than 2 million kilometers! That's because Amsterdam is built for bicycles. Without a doubt, riding a bike is the best way to get around town.

All you need to do is rent one. Yellow Bikes has been in the bike renting game since way back in 1990. Centrally located, they offer a great range of bike tours, and of course, for the free-spirited: this 24 hour rental. The staff is hyper-knowledgeable, fast, and friendly. They'll turn you loose on the city in no time.

NOTE: Amsterdammers ride their bikes in Amsterdam every day. You don't. Stay to the right-hand side of the bike lanes until you're comfortable. And watch how the locals use hand signals. Then do likewise.
