Amsterdam: Kings Day Pub Crawl with VIP Club Entry

Celebrate Kings Day in Amsterdam with a Pub Crawl and VIP Club Entry

Imagine stepping into a city where orange is the color of the day, streets are filled with laughter, music, and a sense of freedom that’s hard to top. That’s exactly what you get when you join the Kings Day Pub Crawl in Amsterdam, led by friendly local guides for about four hours of festive fun. At just $39 per person, it offers a lively, affordable way to soak up the city’s most iconic holiday — a true highlight for those wanting to experience Amsterdam’s legendary nightlife and community spirit in one go.

What we love about this experience is how it combines authentic local knowledge with the energy of a shared celebration. First, the VIP club entry means less time waiting in lines and more time dancing or chatting with new friends. Second, the drink deals and shots at each bar add a layer of value that makes this not just a party but a smart choice for those who want to enjoy Kings Day without breaking the bank.

A potential consideration is that with 4 hours of nonstop revelry, it’s best suited for lively, energetic travelers who are prepared to keep pace, wear comfortable shoes, and enjoy the chaos of a large, spirited crowd. It’s not designed for those looking for a quiet or relaxed experience.

This pub crawl is perfect for party lovers, first-timers eager to dive into Amsterdam’s Kings Day festivities, and anyone who wants to celebrate with locals in a safe, fun, and organized setting.

What Makes This Tour Stand Out

During Kings Day, Amsterdam transforms into a sea of orange, with streets bustling from dawn to late at night. This pub crawl capitalizes on that energy, guiding you through key nightlife venues with the help of a knowledgeable local guide. The atmosphere is electric, with dancing, singing, and spontaneous cheers echoing everywhere.

The tour’s main draw is the combination of VIP club entry, drink deals, and a lively group environment. For many travelers, the highlight is how smoothly it connects the chaos of Kings Day with the more structured environment of a pub crawl — offering a safe, fun way to experience the city’s nightlife.

What You Can Expect at Each Stop

• Skip-the-line VIP club entry allows you to bypass long queues, a significant time saver during the busy Kings Day.
• Drink deals at each venue help stretch your budget and keep the drinks flowing.
