What an absolute treat and delight to spend the afternoon with Helena. She knows how to get around the town. From contemporary street art that I would never have found to the inside story of some of the classic portions of Old Amsterdam. Helena had it all at her command. Great trips on places to dine or grab a beer. There's no way to describe what a wonderful opportunity it is... The best part is - she will customize the experience to be exactly what your group would like for it to be. I've been on a lot of walking tours in many cities around Europe as this one is Tops. Treat yourself to a really behind the scenes look and a lot of laughs and fun. The next time I'm in Amsterdam, we'll be sure to set up a time with Helena to see even more. An Experience Not to Be Missed

Helena met me at my hotel lobby at the prescribed time to begin our tour. She took me to so many places I wouldn’t of seen ordinarily. She’s very knowledgeable, and the kind of person that you feel comfortable with. She becomes much of a friend! We had an enjoyable lunch at a quaint restaurant that she picked out that had excellent food. Helena definitely knows Amsterdam. She was able to provide me with the names of several good restaurants and bakeries that I will go to during the rest of my stay in this lovely city.Helena is a fabulous guide!

We enjoyed our tour with Estella. We scheduled the tour for when we first arrived in Amsterdam to get an overview of the city so that we could decide what we wanted to explore further on our own. Estella did a great job with that and we enjoyed hearing the history of the city as well as her personal stories and experiences. Great overview of Amsterdam

We spent a very enjoyable and informative few hours walking the area where we learnt all about it's rich history as well as what life is like there today and what the future may hold.

(About local Sebastian)

19 febrero 2025

My family of two adults and three teenagers took a walking tour of Amsterdam with Sebastian in February 2025. Before the tour, Sebastian was very easy to communicate with and flexible with the arrangements. From the start of the tour Sebastian made an effort to understand what we were interested in and what type of tour we would like. He gave us a good mix of local knowledge, history, culture and interesting facts. The tour covered a lot of ground but moved at a comfortable pace. Our kids needed a food break before the planned stop and Sebastian had no problem changing things around to keep everyone fueled up. I would highly recommend Sebastian as a tour guide.Perfect Personalised Tour

Anna is a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. We had a simple request—to see the city and learn about its history—and she delivered beyond our expectations. She took us through the main sights and shared historical insights, including lesser-known facts that made the experience even more special. Anna was always approachable and could answer any question we had. A nice touch was when she treated us to a delicious local specialty. She also tailored the route based on our preferences, making the tour feel personalized and engaging. Highly recommended!Anna - a knowledgeable and friendly guide!

This was my first time using Withlocals and Olga has set the bar high! Her knowledge on local culture and food was exceptional. Each stop on the tour was picked out with purpose as it related to culture and history. It was exactly what I was looking for and she helped me learn much more about the Dutch. Her own love for travel also made it easy to talk to her during the tour. I highly recommend her and would definitely choose her again for a future booking!A great tour!

From the start of our four hour tour, Marten exceeded our expectations in every way, and our expectations were high to begin with. He is not just a guide; he is a true historian with an infectious enthusiasm for his city. Marten didn't just recite facts; he brought history to life with captivating storytelling. In addition to being incredibly knowledgeable, he is witty, engaging, insightful and clearly passionate about sharing his love of Amsterdam with others. My husband and I learned so very much and had tons of fun while doing so! We'll always be grateful to have had Marten as our guide! He clearly loves what he does and what is better than that?!! An unforgettable tour!!!

(About local Olga)

27 enero 2025

I had a good time with Olga on my personalized tour and I discovered not only places, but a lot of the history I would have known nothing about otherwise. Olga explained everything well and in an engaging way that I was able to remember and rave to friends about. My first trip to Amsterdam was all the more meaningful because of the knowledge I gained and Olga's suggestions on places to visit based on my interests. The hidden gardens and peeks at the beautiful interiors of the houses they were a part of was a huge plus. I would absolutely recommend the 'Highlights and Hidden Gems' tour with Olga for anyone who is visiting and wants to get a bit more out of their trip and experience a local's perspective.Enhanced my first trip to Amsterdam

We had the pleasure of experiencing the Rijksmuseum with Marten as our guide. Marten shared not only the wonderful art with us he gave us the history of the art styles and how they evolved through time. It was information that we would not have thought about if we were on our own at the museum. I recommend having Marten as your guide if you are interested not only in the art but also in history. I’m so happy that we chose Marten to be our guide.Rijksmuseum With Marten

We had a lovely morning with Olga. Anyone who likes cookies as much as us (and knows the best place to go in Amsterdam to get them) was always going to be a hit! Olga clearly loves Amsterdam and her enthusiasm for the city made it a most enjoyable 3 hours. We wanted to find out the background to the city as well as what to do and where to eat during our stay and she didn't let us down! After our walk we spent the next 3 days doing all the things Olga recommended and this certainly made out trip very special. So if you want a guide who knowledgeable and engaging, Olga is the one for you!Olga is great!

Ich war über Silvester mit meinem 21-jährigen Sohn das erste Mal in Amsterdam. Wir hatten eine 3-stündige Tour durch Amsterdam auf deutsch mit Marten gebucht. Ich muss diese Tour wirklich empfehlen, es ging nicht nur um das geschichtliche Amsterdam. Wir konnten Marten alles Fragen, ob gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen, Architektur. Genauso hatte ich mir das erste Kennenlernen mit Amsterdam vorgestellt. Ich komme definitiv wieder!Diese Tour sollte man unbedingt buchen!

We had an absolutely fantastic walking tour of Amsterdam with Olga! From start to finish, her knowledge, warmth, and passion for the city made this a truly memorable experience. Over the 3 hours, Olga brought Amsterdam’s history and culture to life, sharing fascinating stories and insights that we never would have discovered on our own. The best part was how personalized the experience felt. Olga took the time to understand our interests and tailored her recommendations to suit us perfectly. The next day, we went back to many of the wonderful places she pointed out (the cookies, the waffles, the restaurants!) and it made our time in Amsterdam so much richer and more enjoyable. Olga’s enthusiasm and expertise are unmatched, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. If you’re looking for a tour that’s engaging, informative, and full of hidden gems, Olga is the one to book with. Best guided tour we’ve had!Best tour of Amsterdam!

We had a wonderful time with our local food guide Olga. She brought us to restaurants that serve traditional Dutch food (which was my request) What I liked about the tour is that we were brought to restaurants were locals ate. We had croquettes, stroopwaffels, pancakes, herring fish and a lot more. We even tried a Surinamese-Chinese dish! She not only talked about the food but also tje history that came with it. Truly an amazing experience 🤍 A fun food tour with Olga

Such an interesting side of Amsterdam to learn about. Arun was very professional and handled the topics of red light District and ”coffeeshops” with grace and practicality. We would probably not have gone through this area on our own but truly appreciated the opportunity to hear about the history and see how things are operating today. Well done Arun! Wonderful tour

We didn’t know what to expect, especially since this was the first time we have used With Locals. From the beginning Aruna impressed us with his knowledge of Amsterdam. He knew small histories and delighted us with stories that you seldom hear during most tours. Every bite of food and drink came with a story that only added to the deliciousness. We would definitely recommend Aruna for anyone looking for a private tour. Best Private tour ever
