5.00Redouan was a great host and guide. He picked us up from the airport and hefted all our luggage into his van. Then took us on a sightseeing tour through Amsterdam for 3 hours, stopping once in a while to let us take pictures. He was knowledgeable about his hometown’s history and culture and it was evident he loves Amsterdam and the Netherlands! He safely navigated traffic and got us back in plenty of time for us to go through security again and make our flight. I would highly recommend his tour to anyone with a long Amsterdam layover!!
Excellent Tour Guide
