Fantastic experience

Sebastian has a genuine love of Amsterdam and for telling stories about his amazing city. Our walk - which exceeded the time we expected - flew by with stories about The Netherlands history, water and land usage, contemporary life, and useful recommendations for our time here. He took us to places we'd never go (or find) as well as listened to us about the things we wanted to try - as such, for instance, we had both Suriname cuisine and fresh herring. Highly recommend Sebastian, which was more like taking a walk with a very knowledgeable friend through Amsterdam than merely hiring a guide

It was a 10!

Laura Maria is an exceptional guide-deeply knowledgable, thoughtful and completely engaging. Her understanding of Amsterdam’s WWll history is outstanding, but what truly set her apart is the way she weaves personal stories into the larger historical context. The tour was far more than just a history walk. It was a moving and meaningful experience that we will carry with us. Cannot recommend Laura Maria highly enough. Chris and Dave

Incredible. Relaxing. Informative.

Willem was wonderful. He customized the tour to our love for history. We had fun walking around and seeing all the paradoxes of the region. He shared some fun rumors and stories about the city but then also shared how those got started and if they were true! He told stories about his life in Amsterdam and I loved hearing his local insights. We had a great time and would highly recommend! We moved without being rushed. He gave us a great lunch recommendation as well.

Anna was an amazing guide!

Anna expertly guided my wife and I through the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. She was able to intuitively perceive what was important to us and custom guide us through the works of the museum to illustrate the golden age of the Netherlands, it’s history, culture, and it’s people. We were fortunate that Ana had the time and she was willing to extend our two hour tour… and after 3 1/2 hours we were still fascinated by all that she showed us. Anna is an extremely knowledgeable guide and we highly recommend her for any of her many tours in Amsterdam.
