@cisco i planned to visit a bit, i don't wanna stay sit in coffeshops doing nothing but smoking..

@Sky i totally agree with you, i just want to have few ideas to improvise when i'll be there. I'm not doing a schedule on Excel xD

Is Amsterdam crowdy as in jully/august during my trip (25th to 29th of june) ?

Do you think it might be helpful to write down some adviced strains ?

The easiest thing to do, in regards to what strains to sample, is to consult the budtender. The budtender will usually give you what you think you are looking for.

Like you, I also like to do some prep and planning, but remember, Amsterdam is a go with the flow kind of place. No matter where you wander, you will seldom be disappointed. One of the great joys and pleasures of Amsterdam is that it is a place that magically puts one into a relaxed, laid back mode.

Amsterdam casts its spell upon all who enter...

Ok :) Thanks
I'm arriving the 25th at 12 and leaving the 29th at 12 also..
We are two travellers and we want to try as much weed as possible :) But the minimum to buy is one gram so how many strains can we try ? I have really no idea :D considering we are used to smoke but local weed (bad ones)

What do you mean by the minimum you can buy is 1gram ? do you mean your cash budget ? in Amsterdam the maximum you can buy from one cs is 5g per person some shops sell half grams also some €10 bags have less than a gram so theoretically you could try every strain in Dam only €s would constrain you ! hope this helps !

Sorry i didn't make my point, i meant we don't have enough time to try lots of weeds, we have to smoke One gram of each we try so we have to finish each gram of each weed :D we aren't gonna throw it away

I don't really know the look of a gram in amsterdam because our weed is very heavy because of the different products they had to gain weight... So i guess a gram in Dam look much better than here :D
Thanks to both of you.
Other question : do you have any idea of the price to pay for a taxi from the train station to my hotel (near vondelpark) ?

Get the train to central and a tram pass for the time you are there. The total cost of all that will be alot cheaper than getting a taxi and alot more fun.

Buy a milkshake and a gram of hash and make your own, and i have grown very fond of popeyes Space cake, the chocolate brownie. Probably not the strongest around but it done me and my m8s in again this trip. :D
