Amsterdam Fitness Pass
Book on GetYourGuide →Operated by BODDY · Bookable on GetYourGuide
A fitness pass that covers your whole trip. The Amsterdam Fitness Pass uses the BODDY app to help you book gym time and classes all around Amsterdam without juggling memberships. If you’re in town for a week or two and want real workouts, not just walking, this setup is made for you.
Two things I like a lot. First, you can use a single pass to explore both big-name gyms and boutique studios in one go. Second, the savings claim is strong on paper: up to 70% off regular pricing, with an average around 50% off.
One drawback to plan around: the pass may not include every single gym you hope for, and some participating venues can be unsure what’s included when you arrive. That mismatch is worth taking seriously before you commit to a specific studio.

The Amsterdam Fitness Pass, in plain terms

This pass is a shortcut to staying consistent with workouts while you’re traveling. Instead of searching for day passes, comparing opening hours, and guessing pricing, you choose gyms and classes through one platform.
You’re not buying a single gym. You’re buying access to a menu of options across Amsterdam and nearby areas, depending on what’s participating. The pass is designed around workouts you can match to your mood: calm (yoga, pilates), sweaty cardio (spinning), or higher-energy sessions (boxing-style options are included).
It also comes with the kind of flexibility most visitors actually need. Your plan can change fast once you’re in the city, so the pass is built around booking classes when it fits your schedule.

Picking your visits and making the 15-day window work

Amsterdam trips vary wildly. Some people arrive with a strict fitness plan. Others just want to squeeze in two solid sessions before they burn out.
That’s why the visit options matter. You choose a pass with 1, 2, or 4 entries (visits). Then, you’re able to use the pass during a 15-day validity window tied to your chosen start. Also, the pass is described as valid for 6 months from the date of purchase, which usually means you can buy now and activate when your trip lines up.
The smartest way to get value is simple: pick the smallest number of visits that matches how likely you are to go. If you’re the type who will realistically book two classes and use the rest as a bonus, a 2-visit pass is usually more sensible than hoping you’ll fit four.
One more point: there are starting times shown when you book, so availability can shape your best activation date. Don’t leave the start decision to the last minute if you want the widest choice of class times.
How the Boddy app turns your pass into booked workouts

After booking, you get a confirmation email with a link and a unique passcode. You log in on the platform, enter your code, and create a virtual account, which is stated as taking less than 30 seconds.
From there, you select a gym or class that fits your schedule and follow the instructions tied to that listing. In practice, this is where the pass either feels effortless or feels annoying. The difference usually comes down to whether you plan ahead.
Also, keep an eye on the fact that some gym staff may not have the same level of familiarity with your specific pass. One review highlighted that staff at used venues were surprised, and that the base pass might not cover every gym automatically. That doesn’t mean the pass fails, but it does mean you should treat the app listings as the source of truth.
My tip: before you go, double-check the gym or studio name inside the platform. If something looks borderline, pick a different participating option that’s clearly included in your pass.
Participating gyms you can aim for across Amsterdam
The pass lists a set of participating gyms and studios, and it’s the mix of brands that makes it useful. You get both mainstream options and niche workout styles, which helps if you don’t want your entire trip to be one workout type.
Some of the gyms/studios listed include:
- The Gym Lounge
- Sport Natural
- Neck sports
- Equal Yoga Studios
- Amstelgym
- WattCycling Amsterdam
- Lijfkracht
- Sean Leisure & Sport
- Round11
- Mylife Purmerend
- Fresh Fitness
- Highstudio’s
- Clubsportive
This matters because each of these likely pulls you toward a different training style. For example, WattCycling Amsterdam suggests a cycling-focused approach, while Equal Yoga Studios points toward a softer recovery day. Boxing-style options tend to be better for travelers who want a structured outlet after long sightseeing days.
There’s also a practical realism here. If you don’t live near your chosen gym, you’ll feel it. Amsterdam’s public transit and bike culture are great, but workout plans still need time. So I’d choose your first gym based on where you’re staying, not just on the workout name.
Classes: yoga, pilates, spinning, boxing, and more
Classes are a big part of the value of this pass. You’re not just buying gym access; you’re booking group workouts too. The formats listed include yoga, pilates, spinning, boxing, and other styles, plus access to outdoor activities is mentioned as well.
If you’re working out as a tourist, classes are often the easiest win. Why? You don’t have to build a full plan from scratch. A class gives you structure, a start time, and a goal.
Here’s how I’d choose your first class:
- Pick something you already do at home if you want a low-stress first session.
- Pick something new if you want vacation-only fun, like cycling or a different yoga style.
- Pick a class with a format that matches your energy that day. A long walk day pairs well with yoga or pilates. A rest day might be perfect for spinning.
Also, be realistic about intensity. Boxing and hard cardio formats can be great, but when you’re jet-lagged or walking a lot, it’s easy to overdo it. Since you only have a limited number of entries, plan for at least one session that won’t leave you wiped out for the next day.
What’s included, what may cost extra, and what to bring
The pass includes gym facilities and access to classes and outdoor activities. It also highlights free cancellation rules and says there are no membership fees required.
But there’s one detail that can change your day: some gyms charge extra for amenities like towels, mats, and similar items. The pass also tells you to bring a towel and sportswear. That’s your best strategy for avoiding surprise costs.
So pack like this:
- A towel
- Sportswear
- Your passport or ID card
Yes, your ID matters. The data explicitly says to bring passport or ID card. That means you should keep it accessible rather than buried in a hotel drawer.
If you show up without a towel at a gym that charges for amenities, you’ll waste time. More importantly, you’ll break the whole point of a travel-friendly pass: quick workouts with minimal friction.
Cancellation flexibility you can actually use
Workouts are easy to plan on a blank calendar. Real life happens once you’re in Amsterdam.
The pass offers cancellation options, including free cancellation up to 2 hours before class start for classes. It also states cancellation up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund.
For me, this is the kind of flexibility that helps you keep workouts in your trip without feeling trapped. If a museum day runs late or you wake up sore, you can adjust. Just don’t assume you can always wait until the last minute and still get the best options, because class availability can still be limited.
One more note: the pass also says that if you buy it and change your mind or don’t find a class that suits you, a full refund is available, but it’s not applicable to partially used passes. That makes it important to only buy what you’re likely to use.
The value question: does $15 make sense for your itinerary?
The price shown is $15 per person, and you pick among 1, 2, or 4-entry options. The pass advertises savings up to 70%, with an average around 50% off the regular price.
That’s a big promise, but it only becomes real value if you use the entries. A pass like this works best when:
- You’re in town long enough to book at least 1 or 2 sessions.
- You choose classes and gyms that you actually want, not just whatever has a slot.
- You avoid paid add-ons like towel/mat fees by bringing what you need.
If you treat it like a test drive—one class or one gym visit—it can still be worth it, especially if you were thinking about buying a pricier single-day option elsewhere. If you can consistently use all entries, the savings can feel dramatic.
But if your trip is chaotic and you end up using only one entry when you bought a four-visit pass, the math gets worse fast. So be honest about your travel style before you buy.
A small warning: the pass-to-gym mismatch problem

This is the issue that shows up in the reviews, and it’s the one I’d plan around.
One review mentioned that the fitness pass gives a voucher for Boddy via an app, but the standard pass sold does not provide access to all gyms. The review also said gym staff didn’t know they were signed up for the program and were quite surprised.
That tells you two things:
- Always confirm your specific gym or class is included for your pass type inside the Boddy platform.
- Be prepared for a slightly awkward moment at check-in while staff figure it out.
You can reduce the chance of problems by being organized. Show your passcode and keep your virtual account ready. If something doesn’t line up, don’t force it—switch to another participating gym/class that’s clearly listed for your pass.
Who this pass is best for
This pass fits travelers who want structure and consistency. You get a low-commitment way to keep training habits going while you’re sightseeing.
It’s a strong match if:
- You like trying new workout styles in a new city.
- You want gym access without signing up for a local membership.
- You’re staying long enough to use more than one entry.
- You’re comfortable booking and checking details inside an app.
It’s less ideal if:
- You need one specific gym brand every time.
- You hate last-minute planning and want everything guaranteed with zero surprises.
- You’re traveling with kids, because it’s not suitable for children under 18.
If you’re a solo traveler, this is often even easier. You control your schedule, you pick the class time, and you don’t have to negotiate workout plans with anyone else.
Should you book the Amsterdam Fitness Pass?
I’d book it if you want flexible workouts and you’re excited to try classes like yoga, pilates, spinning, and boxing across different studios. The value claim is strong, the format is convenient, and you’re not stuck with one gym.
I’d skip or be extra careful if your plan depends on one exact gym name, because the pass may not cover every venue you hope for. Also, because some staff may be unfamiliar with the program, you’ll want to arrive with your passcode ready and double-check inclusion in the Boddy app first.
If you want a simple way to keep moving during a trip, this pass can do that. Just buy the entry number that matches your real schedule, and use the platform listings as your checklist.
