Amsterdam Highlights and Hidden Gems Walking Tour with Fun Guide
Overview
Available languages
3 hours
Mobile ticket
Take a fascinating walk with me, an enthusiastic and knowledgeable expert, who brings to life the best Amsterdam highlights, hidden gems and historical sights through entertaining storytelling.
You'll see the most interesting parts of the city within a sensible timeframe and at a relaxed, non-rushed pace. Not only will you learn about the things and the people that make the city famous, like the canals, coffeeshops, Rembrandt and Anne Frank; but you’ll also discover places only known to locals that are not found in tourist guides.
My goal with this tour is to make you feel like you are part of the city instead of an outsider traveling through it. In other words, you’ll feel less like a tourist and more like a local.

5.00Jerry was a wonderful tour guide! We learned the 750 year history of Amsterdam as we walked along the cobblestone streets. We saw the Palace, Rembrandt’s House, the Master’s Guild building, the floating flower market and so many more interesting places. If you are looking for a tour pointing out interesting places in Amsterdam while explaining the fascinating history of the city, this is the tour for you.
Excellent enthusiastic guide.

5.00Jerry was a great guide. He made a cold rainy day into a fantastic tour, we learnt so much about the history of Amsterdam and lots of interesting insights about the city that we wouldn’t have found out on our own. He is very knowledgeable and very happy to share tips with us. Highly recommend doing his tour.

5.00As an expat living in the Netherlands I’ve always wanted to discover more about Amsterdam and taking a walking tour seemed like the perfect way to do it. Jerry’s walking tour did not disappoint. It was the perfect mix of facts and fun as he told us about so many things and did so in a light, interesting way. And in about 3 hours, we saw so many things in different areas of the city. I would have never found a lot of these on my own. Highly recommended.

5.00I took the Highlights Hidden Gems and History Tour in Amsterdam with Jerry, and it was fantastic. Jerry was funny, kind, and full of great stories that brought the city to life. Jerry shared stories and details about Amsterdam’s history and culture that I never would’ve noticed on my own. The mix of well-known highlights and tucked-away spots made the tour both informative and personal. Highly recommend this walking tour with Jerry. Thanks so much Jerry for making this trip memorable!

5.00We 4 Aussies embarked on Jerry’s tour on a sunny Autumn day. We followed him around beautiful Amsterdam while he shared fun and interesting stories about the city he clearly loves. At the end of the tour we all agreed it was a wonderful way to get to know Amsterdam. Bonus, we met Jerry who is a legend! We recommend 100%.
Most Fun All Around Tour

5.00Jerry’s Amsterdam Highlights, Hidden Gems and History Tour lives up to its title as it is the perfect mix of facts, fun and lots of surprises. The tour covers alot of ground as there are many stops in both the old harbor area and in the canal ring. This really helped me get my bearings for exploring the city further on my own. Jerry’s enthusiasm and passion for Amsterdam comes through in his storytelling, especially in his funny tales about what it’s like to live there. Since we were a small group, Jerry even added in snack stops where we ate the best cookies in all of Amsterdam and sampled bitterballen during our half-way pause. Jerry’s friendliness deep knowledge and sense of fun made this tour a real entertaining introduction to Amsterdam.
Fantastic guide who knows his way around

5.00We struck it lucky today as we were the only two on the tour. Jerry really gets into the history of Amsterdam, including some maps from the Middle Ages to show how much it’s changed. We covered the Dam, Palace, National Monument and the old church before heading off to the Nine Streets and Jordaan areas. Lots of little snippets and great conversation about all kinds of interesting facts about Amsterdam what it’s like to live and work here. Go for a walk with Jerry, you’ll love it.
Great Tour!

5.00We were lucky enough to have Jerry to ourselves for a walking tour on Friday afternoon. We had a great time and saw a lot of things that we otherwise would’ve missed and also learnt a lot about the city. Jerry is such a laid back and fun person to be around and we quickly felt comfortable with him. The tours are small (very small in our case!), which allows for visitors like me to ask lots of questions! Highly recommended.
