	Getting there and around Getting there Amsterdam's Schiphol International airport is 18km (11mi) southwest of the city centre. An inexpensive train service to Centraal Station leaves every 15 minutes, taking 15-20 minutes. For more information about the airport: http://www.schiphol.nl/ Getting around Amsterdam's main train station is Centraal, which has regular and efficient connections throughout the country and to all neighbouring countries. Amsterdam has 550,000 bicycles and this is an ideal way to get around. You can reach most places in Amsterdam on foot, but there's also an efficient public transport system. It covers almost the whole city (though the canal belt can be tricky as trams and buses stick to 'spoke' roads). Centraal Station is the hub of it all, where tram, bus, train and metro lines converge. Ticketing is based on zones, with the same ticket valid on buses, trams and metros. Trams are good for the inner city, buses go farther out, while the train is most useful for getting to the airport and the metro is best for getting to the international bus station.
