Does anyone have experience with these tickets? It seems pretty straightforward, return trip from Schiphol to Centraal with unlimited tram/bus/nighbus/metro access included. I thought I'd post this since I hadn't heard of it before, the only thing is it's only available at the Holland Tourist Information desk at Schiphol Airport (opposite Arrival Hall 2, open daily from 07.00 – 22.00 hrs.)

PS does anyone have any idea where that is? I'm afraid I'll be searching for this information desk for hours given how gigantic Schphol is.

I used the All in One last July...28 Euro for a 7 day pass. The 7 day tickets do not include to and from Schiphol, but who cares. I asked about them at the airport, but was told where to get it in A'dam. It was really sweet never having to worry about tram fare..just get on and use the card. You can buy them at a small tan colored building in front of Centraal Station. I had a problem with my left foot, then, and the tram really saved my ass. I stayed down in de Pijp and only had to walk a short distance to hop a tram. I highly recammend the tram pass.

I was going to post a thread similar to this one.

I'm curious if this would be a deal, since I'm staying in the Centrum and can walk to many places.

If you are not going to take the tram too often, I doubt it would be a good deal.

On the other hand, I think a tram ride for an hour is like 2.20, so if you are gonna take more than 13 tram rides (yes I am a geek for doing the math) go for it.

I never load up my card with more than 20euros since I am notorious for losing stuff.

Yes, you can get a 3 day one.

This is a great deal and I used it on my last trip. You can get it with the transit pass for 1-4 days. Highly recommended.

^^Lamont wrote in his trip report where to purchase them.

I think it's a good deal, since the trip to/from schiphol is already about 4€ so that makes 8 euros, then for the 3 day pass (which is what I plan on getting) its about 20€. 12€ for unlimited tram, bus, nightbus, and i think metro but i dont plan on using that anyway...sounds like a good deal, especially in the middle of winter.

It would also pay for itself really, since taking the tram to the old west or de pijp is alot faster and more convenient than walking, and the weed is so much cheaper there!

Must have used our all in one pass at least 16 times up to now in the last 2 days, definitely worth it for us, no hassle and spent some nice times trundling along in the trams not caring where we end up as there will always be another going back to central. Still got blisters but I'm sure a lot less than if we didn't get the passes. There was no one on the queue where we bought the all in one passes, I noticed a long queue at both the ticket office and outside central station, I'm guessing waiting for transport cards or tip ups.

More likely buying train tickets, the line at Central. Avoid if possible. Many train tickets can be purchased at the machines, even international ones.
