Check out the Museums, skip the Van Gogh museum though, it was a waste of time the setup is bad, if you're dead set on going though, either get an iamsterdam card or buy tickets to the museum at your hostel or something, the line to get tickets at the museum is ridiculous.
The Reijksmuseum is worth it, really awesome.
Heineken brewery is sweet.
Walk everywhere, its actually a very small city and you can cover a lot of it on foot. For the love of God do NOT have a car, having a car in Amsterdam is the single most ######ed thing you could do.
Have fun. Be safe. Amsterdam is a great place, in the midst of all the history, culture and drugs, it is a city that has a prevailing attitude of "do whatever you want so long as you dont bother anyone."
But be safe. When I was there a bunch of Americans at my hostel were irate because they got robbed. I spoke with one of them, a nice quiet guy who didnt get robbed and asked what the deal was, yeah they got loser drunk and passed out in the street and were stunned that their wallets got stolen. Its a big city like anywhere else.
