Amsterdam is the capital city of Netherlands. Netherlands is located in northern part of Europe and it is a favorite touristic destination. Amsterdam is well known for its famous architecture, large number of canals, extraordinary shopping opportunities and very friendly people.

In Amsterdam everybody can find something interesting : the history lovers can learn interesting things about the history and the culture of the city and the party people can enjoy in wild parties.

Visiting and sightseeing Amsterdam in three hours is a difficult but not impossible task. The only way to see every interesting touristic site is by a bicycle. The bicycle tours that offers almost everything important in a few hours are very popular amongst the adventure tourists.

Amsterdam is well known for the large number ( in some estimates over 700 000 ) of bicycles in the traffic of the city. This is because of the fact that large freeways were only built around the city and the government tries to discourage car traffic in the city center. The interesting thing is that almost every year 80 000 bikes gets stolen and 35 000 ends up in the waters of the canals.

For the tourists who would like to see all major sites in Amsterdam in three hours the obvious answer is with bike tours. Bike tours are organized all over the city in almost every time of the day.

The first step in our bike tour will be finding the proper place to rent bikes. These companies can be easily found with the help of the Internet. With the help of such companies we can rent a bicycle from three hours up to seven days. The prices of these rental can vary very much but generally they are very affordable.

However, most of the rental places require a minimum of two passenger. This means that its better to bring along a partner for sightseeing and share the fun. Most of the places include various touristic maps and bike locks in the price of the rental. This can be very helpful because we will not have to worry about the safety of the rental bike and we will not get lost that easily.

All the rental bikes are maintained and they are fully functional to guarantee the safety of the passengers.

After the rental of the bicycle all we have to do is to follow one of the bike paths and visit all the famous places in Amsterdam in three hours. There are a lot of things to see in Amsterdam : the city itself is one of the historical centers of Europe with a rich historical heritage.

It is up to us to decide which bike path we will take and enjoy this beautiful city. Of course it is a smart thing to choose the desired path before we start the tour.
