Don't go to Amsterdam without it
It is extremly durable as I normally kept it in my left rear pocket - still good as new after two trips. I went to Amsterdam twice last year and used this map both times. I like the laminate since I can use those erasable markers used for presentations to mark landmarks or places of interest. Once done, simply wipe them off and add new ones. The main map showing Amsterdam could be just a tad larger to show areas to the east and south. Bring this map and a small compass and you won't get lost. Worth every penny.

Good map except for metro & trams section.
And I like the weather resistant finish (A real asset considering the climate). The maps are actually very good.
But the section (map) of the trams makes it very hard to figure out or get your bearings. Fortinatly, good maps for this are easy to get, free, and well posted at every stop. However I geuss
I would still say it is a pretty good value.

This is by far the best city map I have ever used. I am on holiday in Amsterdam as I write. First, it is durable enough that I anticipate it will survive the entire stay. The street names are clearly indicated; the public transportation facilities are identified. Amsterdam can be a bit disorienting because it's a city build with concentric streets. North and South can be confused easily. I have found my bearings several times when I would have been lost without this map. If you are interested in finding you way about Amsterdam, this map will be interesting to you.
