I am travelling from US to Middle East with a 10 hour layover in Amsterdam where I have never been. Is this enough time to see any sites, possible get lost or delayed and get back to airport for check in with adequate time? Any suggestions of fun things to do with this amount of time?

Ira - provided your passport and visa allows you to transit and leave the airport, then there is plenty to do with your layover: go to the Van Gogh Museum, check out the Rijksmuseum, rent a bicycle and cruise around the canals. Cehck out the Stedelijk Museum of Modern Art if you're into that sort of thing. Avoid going to the coffee shops - you might forget about your flight completely!

Getting from the airport into Amsterdam central is easy: catch the regular train underneath the arrivals terminal - it only takes 20mins into town.

Amsterdam is a very easy city to get around and is less than half and hour from the airport by train.
