Chris was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable about the history of Amsterdam and Netherlands. As we walked he pointed out so many interesting buildings and sights. We really enjoyed his funny stories and his insights from him having grown up in and around Amsterdam. I would highly recommend Chris as a guide, he was very easy to like.
