i was in amsterdam in february and it was one of the best weeks of my life. the city is beautiful, just amazing. my tips:
1) if possible hire an apartment, this is what we did and it was so much better cos you could smoke in the room, buying food and alcohol was cheaper when you cook your own meals, and if you freak out you have somewhere chill to relax in.
2) smoke everyday, just because you can. remember that amsterdam weed will be 10x stronger than what you're used to so ease into it. speak to the person working in the coffee shop for recommendations. spacecakes are great for breakfast cos they're slow acting.
3) go to the museums, if you don't like museums get high beforehand. don't go to the sex museum, it's boring until the room with bestiality, and then it's disgusting.
4) do shrooms. shrooms are legal there so go to a "smart shop" and speak to the person behind the counter about what to get. first time you do them stick to being inside, after that roam the city.
5) don't buy drugs on the street. you don't need to and you will get mugged. you can't walk 100metres in amsterdam without being offered something, just ignore it.
6) watch out for bikes. 80% of the population rides a bike, you can't hear them coming and when i was stoned i was nearly killed by a bike so many times.
7) GO TO MAOZ FALAFEL. best falafel ever, and dirt cheap. we ate it every fucking day.
8) go on a canal cruise, good way to see the city.
9) lots of junkies in amsterdam, but they are the nicest junkies ever, so you end up giving them money.
10) rembrantplein is a good place to go out but very touristy.
man that's about it, if i think of anything more i'll post it. i can't tell you much about the red light district, we walked through it basically everyday cos it's right in the middle of town but i'm not into hookers so i didn't actually partake in any such activities. it's fun for a look though, just don't take photos or you will have the shit beaten out of you.
