About A'DAM Lookout
Observation deck atop the A'DAM Tower offering 360-degree views from 100 meters high, with Amsterdam's historic center on one side and the harbor on the other. Europe's highest swing 'Over the Edge' dangles you over the building's edge. The skybar and rotating restaurant occupy the same floor.
Insider Tips
Take the free ferry from Centraal Station—the ride itself offers great views and saves you the cost of an expensive canal cruise.
