Did you know?

While the primary language is English, Amsterdam Dungeon actors can also speak German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, and Portuguese to cater to international visitors.

After your heart-pounding journey, take home a piece of the Dungeon with unique souvenirs like torture instrument replicas, spooky toys, and Amsterdam-themed memorabilia.

Situated at the heart of Amsterdam on Rokin, the Amsterdam Museum is built inside a historical church, adding to the authenticity of the experience.

The attraction is part of a network of Dungeons owned by Poole-based Merlin Entertainments, with each location investigating the history of its own local area while following a similar theme.

One of its distinctive features is the "Reaper: Drop Ride to Doom," a MACK Rides e-Motion roller coaster themed upon the Grim Reaper legend, which winds around a real 13th-century church.

The narration of sights was excellent and informative. The bus stopped or slowed down at wow moments for us to take good pictures. We were especially pleased that the driver announced upcoming stops with enough time for us to prepare to hop off. Highly recommend.
