Muiderslot Castle
and
Fort Pampus Island
Friday, April 14, 2023
Day trip to Muiderslot Castle and Fort Pampus Island.
Bus/Bus/Bus/Bus/Walk
Use the OV Chipkaart for bus fare.
Accepts Iamsterdam City Card – Reservations are required and it looks like you have to wait until 2023 to make them.
Castle opens at 10:00 am and closes at 5:00 pm
FOOD NOTE: There is a “cafe” both in Muiderslot and Fort Pampus Island.
I suggest you check out the one at Muiderslot before going to the island.
12:30 pm – Take the ferry to Fort Pampus Island
The ferry leaves once per hour on the half hour from Herengracht street about a ¼ of a mile south of Muiderslot.
The admission to the fort is free with the Iamsterdam City Card, but the ferry ride cost €8.50 per person.
Use the OV Chipkaart for train and bus fare.
