If you are staying, visiting, shopping, working or sightseeing in Amsterdam's historic canal belt, then the Stop/Go is the bus for you.
This minibus service runs the length of the Prinsengracht canal, literally circling the city and connecting with many other bus and tram routes along the way. To make the Stop/Go as easy as possible to use, there are no fixed stops on the route. Simply hold out your hand and the bus will stop for you. When alighting, just indicate to the driver where you want to get off.
You can see the route on the map.
Back and forth
The Stop/Go runs from monday to sunday between 9.00am and 5.30pm. Buses depart every twelve minutes en run between the Waterlooplein (from outside the City Hall/Muziektheater complex) - Central Station (the stop in the direction Oosterdok is located at the busstand at the Prins Hendrikkade/cormer Damrak, opposite the Victoria Hotel, the stop in the direction Waterlooplein is near the taxistand) - and Oosterdok (on the Oosterdokskade, opposite the Public Library). Their scheduled route between these points is along Prinsengracht, but the buses may be diverted to avoid obstructions.
The Stop/Go runs seven days a week, every 12 minutes from 9.00 to 17.30 hrs.
