Park and Ride, P+R in Amsterdam
The Park and Ride (P+R) parking facilities are located on the outskirts of Amsterdam near the ring A-10. The idea is that you park your car for a low fee of € 6,- per 24 hours, with the unlimited 24 hours public transport ticket included in the price, and you continue your visit using good metro, tram or bus connections with the centre of Amsterdam.
If you travel with a companion, a second public transport ticket will be issued and its price is also included in the initial fee. With an additional payment you may purchase 48 and 72 hours tickets.
You may park your car at the P+R sit up to the maximum of four days. You should inform the parking service about it so you will be receiving public transport tickets for all these days. As they are heavily subsidized, you must return your used public transport tickets to the P+R parking service at your departure, when paying your parking fees for the whole stay.
P+R car parks are open 24 hours, 7 days a week. They are supervised. Still, we do not advise you to leave anything of value in your car.
