Amsterdam-Best train option
Hi,<BR>We (4 adults) would be in Amsterdam for 2 full days before heading to southern Europe. We would be staying in Gouda, but would be travelling to Leiden, Lisse, and of course many major Amsterdam attractions. Is there an inexpesive way to buy bulk tickets (train pass) that is good for train/ tram/ bus travel in Amsterdam surrounds.<BR>Thanks<BR>
