Pay with a Good Deed to become a Happy Tourist

Pay With A Good Deed will bring about a new way to strengthen the community of the Haarlemmerbuurt by offering tourists the opportunity to participate in small challenges that act as a good deed towards local businesses, environment and people, alike. In exchange receive a small reward in the form of a discount in certain shops, an impactful human experience and other small benefits.

Being a Happy Tourist is about visitors coming to Amsterdam; participating in challenges or deeds, which have a direct and positive impact on the city and its residence in order to change tourism into a force for good by creating more sustainable tourism – for us to not only get something out of the places we visit, but also give something back to the places we visit.
Participating is as simple as:
-
Choose one or more of the good deeds below
-
Take a photo or video of yourself doing the good deed
-
Post your photo or video on Instagram with the #thehappytouristeu or on Facebook with the tag @paywithagooddeed
-
Receive a digital sticker and/or a reward in the form of discounted or free products at local, sustainable shops
