Francisco was a great tour guide! Very enthusiastic and had a wealth of information. Information we would not have known if we walked through the red light District on our own.

This tour was a lovely walk through the streets of Amsterdam getting to learn the full history of the area. Yes its 2 hrs but the walk is very casual and you are always stopping to see or learn about something. Could of listed to our guide and kept going for another 2 hours. An amazing evening
