Matryoshka

As there are many routes of minibus-like matryoshka vehicles, it is very easy to get to any point of the city in a very short time with these. As minibuses are not affiliated to a particular company, the routes, working hours and fares of each minibus are different.

Tram

While there is a metro network in Amsterdam it is generally used for transportation to and from locations outside of the city. Since there is a parking problem in the city and because parking is very expensive biking or taking the tram are more preferable modes of transportation.
