... and Canal boat!
Advice to potential car drivers
The best way to visit Artis Royal Zoo in the heart of Amsterdam is by NS' train (Dutch Railways), tram, metro or canal boat.
We would advise you to avoid coming by car to Amsterdam. The Artis Car Park has
a permit for a only limited amount of cars. Parking rates elsewhere in Amsterdam
are extremely high, and cars are towed away if your ticket is overdue. Driving a
car in Amsterdam is not to be advised, as the streets of Amsterdam are narrow
and crowded.

The best way to visit Amsterdam is by NS train (Dutch Railways). From Schiphol Airport, the train to Amsterdam Central Station takes a mere 15 minutes. Artis is easily accessible by public transport (trams 9, 10 and 14 and Waterlooplein metro station). During the summer season the zoo can also be reached by canal boat: from Amsterdam Central Station, board the Artis Expres, a canal boat operated by Lovers shipping company (tel. 31-20-6222181) or take tram line 9 to the zoo.
