5.00Aaron was not just knowledgeable, he was passionate about the history of Amsterdam and the Jewish history. He texted us via what’s app prior to meeting and gave me his contact info which was a comfortable feeling knowing we could contact him in case we got lost. Aaron was very kind, considerate and funny! He was thoughtful of his guests and we thoroughly enjoyed him.
Not to be missed!

5.00The tour was very moving. We have heard the heartbreaking stories before of the Jews who lost their lives in the holocaust but seeing where they lived and reading their names and ages and their stories made it so personal and profound.. Our tour guide, Andrea, was great. We recommend you don’t miss this tour.
