Amsterdam Walking Tour
Rasa_A, May 2024
The guide did an excellent job showing us around the city and providing a background on the various parts.
Without this tour we would never have known so much about Amsterdam!
Lfruendt, May 2024
Our private guide, Andrea, was extremely knowledgeable and provided us interesting history of the city and buildings! She made sure we enjoyed every aspect of this great city of canals and beauty including the delicious chocolates and cappuccino as we marveled at this gorgeous city!
Great tour of Amsterdam

This was a great introduction to Amsterdam, & we really liked our guide Aaron. He was really knowledgeable & welcomed questions. We learned a lot more about the history of the city & Dutch than I expected, which was great! Would definitely recommend this tour.
Exceptional Tour

Aaron was an excellent tour guide. We were challenged today by the Kings Day celebrations. Despite the mobs of crazy people we were able to hot all the hot spots of the tour. He was patient and passionate about the city. Very enjoyable.
Excellent Tour

Excellent intro to Amsterdam

We really enjoyed our private walking tour with Masha. We really got our bearings after our extensive walk through this beautiful city. Masha has extensive knowledge of the history and also gave great information about the current way of life here in Amsterdam and the Netherlands. She also customized our walk to our interests. I would highly recommend this tour toward the beginning of your visit to Amsterdam.

We love coming to a new city and having a walking tour at first arrival to get to know the city better. Our guide Andrea did not disappoint! She was so knowledgeable, shared so much detailed history, and gave great recommendations too. She really knows and loves the city.
Fresh off the plane
LARRY_K, Mar 2024
Aaron was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable. Appreciated the conversational nature of the tour. I had a little bit of difficulty following his presentation due to rapid sometimes too soft speech, Irish brogue and my modest hearing loss. But an excellent introduction to Amsterdam. A great way to start your time in the city.

Our tour guide James was so informative, professional and so knowledgeable. This was a great tour of the history of Amsterdam.
Great introduction to the city!
Gina_T, Feb 2024
Insightful journey through Amsterdam. Engaging guide, rich stories. The tour has a lot to offer and we got a real taste of what Amsterdam has in store
10/10!!
Ilana_W, Jan 2024
Pedro was FANTASTIC! My partner and I had an amazing time on our tour with Pedro. He was knowledgeable, friendly, answered all questions with respect and passion. We had a tour January 1st, so it meant a lot that he was able to meet with us during a busy holiday season time. My partner and I loved this tour and would not hesitate to book another with this company. Although it was a lot of information, it didn’t feel like too much. We’re so happy we were able to do this. Thanks Pedro!!! :)
Great START to our Amsterdam stay!
Veronica_K, Jan 2024
James was excellent! He was very knowledgeable about the city, easy to talk to and catered to our many questions as we roamed throughout Amsterdam. I highly recommend as something to do when you arrive in order to decide which parts of the city you want to explore further during your stay.
Ideal introduction to Amsterdam…
Karmen_B, Dec 2023
Our small group walking tour with James was perfect. We needed to get our bearings on our first day (and learn about the city) and James provided exactly the experience we needed. He clearly has deep historical knowledge & took the time to. make sure he was covering areas in which we were interested. My daughter and I referenced many of his fun facts throughout our trip. Definitely recommend James as a guide, especially for those new to the city.
Nice walking tour
MIRIAM_C, Nov 2023
The walking tour was nice and we visited nice areas in Amsterdam that had no idea about. The tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable. I recommend it to anyone that wants to get an overview of the city
Worth repeating
Romina_R, Oct 2023
Our company booked a private walking Tour for our business partners. Even though the guests were quite late, the communication with the Tour Guide was excellent and he waited for the guests (45min). The Tour Guide was knowledgeable, friendly. The guests commented that the Tour was informative and interesting.
Great time and Excellent Value!
Kamran_K, Oct 2023
