Fantastic views across all of Amsterdam, nice bar and restaurant there too. Takes 2 min by free ferry from the back of the central train station. Have you phone ready to video as you get into the lift as there’s a light show as you go up and it only takes 22 seconds to get to the top

The view and ambiance of this building are incredible. The 360 view of Amsterdam is absolutely stunning. The only thing I would say from is for the swing, we were never notified that the camera attached to it was turned off at certain time. We exited to the first floor kiosk to get our photo and were then told they were turned off 20 minutes prior to our boarding. I would advise people that the cameras are off so people can get their own photos and videos taken. Other than that, it was a great experience

What a great place to see a different view of Amsterdam. Obviously touristy, but this place is worth wait and money for the views anytime of day. You can meet lots of cool people here as well when sharing a table by the bar.

Time of visit makes all the difference. Make sure you go there during dusk, one of the best places to catch the sunset in Amsterdam. Swing over the edge is a unique experience which is a plus point.

Worth every penny. I took a group of family members here recently and they still talk about it now. Fantastic views across Dam, especially on a clear sunny day. The swing is great fun for the adrenalin junkies. Bar stocks great selection of drinks. Food is a bit pricy (but there is a food and entrance deal) - I would highly recommend, if only for the potential photos - and memories you can make!

If you are in Amsterdam, do not miss this place. I highly recommend to try the swing once. It is an out of the world experience! Best view of Amsterdam from top. Breezy and cozy weather. Spent 2-3 good hours here, bar and the service s good. Picked some souvenirs and as usual clicked a loooot of pics

Really cool interior. The lift was a nice touch with the flashing lights. We loved the swing, an experience we won’t forget. We really liked the bar area with the view. The photos we purchased were really good, although I wouldn’t recommend purchasing the video. Fun experience overall

Great view over the whole city. Small waiting lines, which is a big pro. The experience we had from the swing was amazing, the ride itself was quit short, but considering the amount of tourist it was OK.

Great atmosphere and vibe in the bar area. Could have stayed all night but we had places to be. Much recommended. My tip is to book your tickets online just before you get there and you'll save 2 euro on admission with no queue. Just go straight up the stairs and they scan your qr code.

Def.worth checking out. Good bar services and good looking bites also (saw but didn't try this time). Awesome views and buildings, places etc. nicely explained all around the tower.

Go here for the best views of Amsterdam. Day views are good but night views are the best. To get the both go before sunset so you get to see both. Only a few minutes ferry ride from Amsterdam Centraal. The lift has a nice light show on the ceiling going both up and down. Tickets are fairly expensive to go to the top. Book tickets online as they’re slightly cheaper. They are two viewing decks, indoor and outdoor. The outdoor swing looks good but didn’t get to go on it due to bad weather. A must for adrenaline seekers. Costs 5 euros extra. You can have professional photos taken and get online versions for free.Their is a bar and also a rotating restaurant at the top. Reservations required for the restaurant.

The lookout was great! The price wasn’t too bad either, which was nice. The top was a hit underwhelming (not the view, but the lookout itself) but it was still good fun and worth it! Something a bit different to do, as I haven’t heard of this before I arrived in Amsterdam and I’ve had a lot of friends visit. The swing was only an extra 5 euro which was pretty reasonable, as I find places like this often have exorbitant prices.

Are you in Amsterdam looking for something to do? This is the place to go! The skyline view is incredible. The rooftop bar is enjoyable and then there is the overhang swing. Plenty to view and enjoy here, great spot!

Overall very mediocre experience. It's definitely a nice view but with a city like Amsterdam it's much better to actually experience the city from below than above. You don't really get the staple canal views from above. The lookout is marketed to tourists in an almost obnoxious fashion with fake greenscreen pictures, restaurants up above and a swing on top of the tower.

The view at the top is breathtaking. I decided to be brave and try the swing, it was scary (it didn't help that I picked a windy day to do it) but a great experience. The photo op in front of the green screen is really cool and the gift shop is good for souvenirs of Amsterdam in general as well as the Lookout. Overall there's so much to do here it's a great attraction to visit when you're in Amsterdam, not one to miss!
