Speaking of pot, this whole series is a dream to binge watch while high af. Each one a half hour vacation.

[@Bakkeleien]

Jep, haha.

[@DrewElGringasho]

Mcgibs, did you know Rick Steves is a HUGE proponent of recreational and medicinal marijuana legalization/decriminalization!! He has done tremendous work in Michigan and several other states fighting for our common sense right to use, possess, and cultivate cannabis. Definitely a man of culture!! You might not guess it but Rick tokes the herb haha. Seriously though, he's done some really great work helping us to get common sense cannabis legislation. Only made me respect him all the more. Cheers bud!

[@MCO18]

My ideal Saturday morning consists of enjoying a cup of coffee, smoking a little weed, and binge-watching Rick Steves’ Europe

[@Lioninthenight]

I watch it with alcohol. Sober, too.

[@johnmavroyannis9209]

This channel is a dream itself. To all τhe people who create, work and produce here you're creating much more than just travelling content. You're creating will for life! Thank you.

[@stephaniers415]

I love my boy Rick Steeves pointing out systemic social injustice. What a legend.

[@jarimikkola2997]

I lived in the Netherlands for nearly 15 years. I loved the Dutch people for many reason, and fell in love with their country. I even learned their language. I highly recommend this as a FIRST STOP for visitors who have never been to Europe, as the people are bilingual for certain, yet are likely to speak 4-5 languages. You won't be disappointed. HINT - Take a B&B and you'll learn a whole not more of the people, the culture, the history, and city.

I could have been in this. Haha. I was cycling with my young daughter in her childseat in front of me when I got stopped by Rick's crew, if they could film me for this travelshow about Amsterdam. I was quite suspisious because I never heard of Rick Steves, but finally agreed. Three times I had to cycle towards theme. Unfortunately we didn't make the cut. :)

"Throughout the Netherlands, places selling marijuana are called "coffeeshops." For decades now, the Dutch, like many Europeans, view marijuana as a soft drug - like tobacco and alcohol. Marijuana use is tolerated. But hard drugs are strictly forbidden." -Rick.

I visited Amsterdam last summer, and I think it might be my favorite place in the world so far. The people were so friendly and the food was amazing. The city was beautiful and riding a bike around was very simple. I hope to one day visit again or even realize my dream of living in Europe. Can anyone recommend a city in Europe that has a similar vibe to Amsterdam?

"What would one gram of marijuana look like?" LIKE YOU DON'T KNOW ALREADY RICK PLAYA PLAYA

[@davidb8777]

I don't know, he seems kind of naive. He referred to buying unrolled cannabis as "loose leaf". Who says that? In one of his books he referred to blond hash as "white hash". I wrote to him and he actually wrote back and thanked me for my correction.

[@shadowvsfuture5132]

Punk fk u

[@YourFellowRNRSisterFan98]

xCoreProductions that was my thought exactly because the Netherlands is the country that supports soft drug use. Well one of the only ones anyways. I think it’s really cool that they give freedom to do what ever you want pretty much.

Amsterdam have the right idea with regards to marijuana. It should be the same all over the world. Just my opinion. The store clerk was so spot on when she said, "in Amsterdam, we believe it's better to tolerate than to put people in prison." So true!

Take a cheaper hotel just (10-15 km outside of North of Amsterdam) and rent a bike for the whole time. There are separate bike lanes everywhere and you can see the countryside with roundtrips of less than 60km. It is cheap and efficient and the Dutch way. Highlights: Zaanse Schans, Volendam/Marken/Edam, Kinderdijk Windmills.

[@mohammadazam5768]

So Beautiful Amsterdam ❤️

[@marjoleint3592]

Thank you for this video of Amsterdam. I can highly recommend to visit Utrecht or Amersfoort too. Or Noordwijk at the sea, with the beautiful beach-clubs (it just looks like Ibiza), the Efteling themepark, that is better than disneyland Paris. Or beautiful Middelburg of Maastricht. All preserved so very well. Oh and visit the really Dutch ‘living’ museum iN Arnhem. It will be as if you walked into the Netherlands 100 years ago. All these city’s are a lot quieter then Amsterdam. And much more ‘real Dutch’. And about the drugs I can say that children at school get a lot of preventive lessons about drugs. They have to learn what it does to you body (as sigarettes and alcohol) and people who were addicted come tell their story. You see a lot of drugs in Amsterdam (tourists) but not really much in other villages or city’s because of that. Most people under 45 years speak fluant English. They have English lessons at school from the age of 4. The older Dutch people can speak French or German better. They had more lessons in that. So if you speak English as your native language you just can speak English here, no problem. Welcome to all the tourists!!!

Besides the big two of London and Paris, Amsterdam is my favorite European city. The canals are so beautiful. I like how the trams run in the middle of the street. It's also cool how most people ride bikes- the city isn't congested with trucks. There are a lot of hot women in Amsterdam. I don't smoke weed, but I respect the rights of those who do. It's a victimless crime. As for prostitution, live and let live. I personally would've pay for sex since I wouldn't sleep with a woman who has been with so many guys. However, a person should be able to do whatever they want with their body, as long as they do so safely. The Anne Frank museum is a must-see 23:20 Vondel Park is beautiful. I love the diversity of Amsterdam
