Amsterdam – Safest for travel in 2026
Hello Everyone! Have You heard the news? According to the latest global travel rankings, the Netherlands — and AMSTERDAM specifically — is predicted to be one of the safest places to travel in 2026. When I read that, I wasn’t surprised at all. This city has a unique calmness, a sense of harmony that is hard to find these days. And somehow, it all connects beautifully with what I want to talk about today: why getting a tattoo in Amsterdam, especially during this time, might be one of the most meaningful souvenirs You can bring home.
A Real Souvenir — Made Here
I’ve always believed that the best souvenirs are the ones that stay with You. Not the keychains, not the fridge magnets, not the stroopwafels (although those are nice too). A tattoo made here, in Amsterdam, by someone who lives and breathes this place — that’s something special. It is a reminder of who You were in that moment, in a city that made You feel safe enough to express Yourself. And now that Amsterdam is predicted to top safety rankings in 2026, even more travellers will experience that sense of ease that makes getting a TATTOO abroad feel natural, even exciting.
Why Amsterdam in 2026?
Safety changes everything. When You visit a city where You feel protected, You relax. You wander. You think. You notice more. You listen to Yourself a little better. Amsterdam has always had that energy, but now it’s officially recognized globally — which makes it even more appealing for thoughtful, intentional tattoo experiences.
And let’s not forget the flowers. This country is famous for them. TULIPS are practically a national symbol, and getting a tulip tattoo in Amsterdam, during a year when the city is celebrated worldwide, gives the design a deeper story. It’s not just a flower. It becomes a memory rooted in a specific place and time.
Why Vadelma Tattoo?
At Vadelma, we don’t do rushed tattoos. We don’t do trends for the sake of trends. We don’t do the FIVE -minute “tourist special.” What we do is fine-line botanical work with care, focus, and craftsmanship — the kind of tattoos that actually age well, because someone took the time to design and execute them properly.
Natalie, for example, makes tulip tattoos with a level of precision that always amazes me. In a country known for tulips, having an artist who specializes in them just feels right. Many travellers come to us because they want a souvenir that truly belongs to Amsterdam — not just in theme, but in spirit. And that’s exactly what we offer.
We understand that being tattooed far from home requires trust. Clear communication, patience, and a calm studio environment matter even more when You’re traveling. And in a city recognized for its safety, it all aligns beautifully: You feel safe outside, and we make sure You feel safe inside as well.
Craftsmanship in a Fast World
2026 or not, one thing remains constant: a well-made tattoo takes time. In a world where everything must be fast, clickable, and instantly entertaining, we continue to believe in the old values — craftsmanship, precision, and timeless beauty. Flowers, for example, never go out of style. They don’t belong to trends. They belong to nature, to stories, to meaning. And that’s why we love them.
Thank You for today!
I’m happy You read this article — and maybe 2026 will be the year You finally take that trip to Amsterdam. And who knows? Maybe during a long, calm session at VADELMA Tattoo, we will talk about life, art, and all the things You cannot rush.
Much love,
Simon
