Full article: Amsterdam Public Transport Tickets

Public transport in Amsterdam requires the use of an OV-Chipcard -- a paper or plastic credit card-size ticket with en embedded memory chip designed to be read by ticket readers on board public transport vehicles.

For most tourists, day- or multiple day tickets are the best deal. They entitle you to unlimited travel through Amsterdam - day and night - by tram, bus and metro.

Amsterdam's public transport firm GVB is using Chippendales in a promotional campaign for its new, chip-based ticket system.

The smart card will soon replace the old ticket system, starting with the subway lines.

The company's price hikes are leading many travelers to complain that while while the Chippendales will not be stripping, the company's customers are being stripped.
