Amazing Amsterdam Bike Tour
Sebastian was an amazing tour guide, and his bike tour was a highlight of our vacation. His first priority was our safety, and my family and I felt comfortable following his lead through the city. He was knowledgeable about the history of the Netherlands and Amsterdam, and we stopped at several notable locations along our route. I highly recommend Sebastian for any of the tours that are offered.

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.

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.
