Great Option for Historical Sight-Seeing Tour

5.00My historical sight-seeing tour was phenomenal. It started right on time and went smoothly. The group's guide, Christian was very friendly, down to earth, and extremely helpful. I was in a very small group but he still made sure everyone kept up, both with walking and with the tour. Christian was incredibly informative for the whole two and a half hours we spent walking and exploring. It was a bit of a chilly and slightly windy day, which meant not too many crowds to walk through. Even if the streets were very busy, I think the tour would definitely still be worth the price. This tour is an outstanding option if you spend your trip in this area of Amsterdam, and want to know a little more about the history.
Walking down streets at Amsterdam!

5.00We had a great walking tour with Christian. The tour covered history of the city, hidden spots we wouldn’t have found on our own & yummy tastings. It was lovely to spend our first morning in Amsterdam wandering around the city, hearing interesting stories. Christian tailored the tour to our interests & gave us recommendations for the rest of our trip. Would highly recommend.
Great tour and snacks

5.00Great tour, and really nice tour guide (Christian). Learned about Amsterdam, saw the key sights, and learned about several interesting places (the hidden gems) that if we had been there on our own without a good tour guide we would have walked right by without noticing. The cheese and stroopwafels were good too.

5.00Christian was top class! We were blessed with a private tour for 2! He matched our vibe right away and he answered even the curve ball questions! Walking and talking is exhausting but we saw so much and learnt a lot! 👣 We tasted cheeses, learned history, walked almost 5000 steps, saw so many interesting things! Then after all that we sat and enjoyed a coffee while he gave up tips for dinner and more exploring! 😊
Excellent!

5.00Our guide was Christian. He gave us ample time for questions and a coffee break, but always on point with the old history and beginnings of Amsterdam and its famous canals. Wonderful overview of the Golden age and highlights of famous buildings in Amsterdam. So kind of him to give me his jacket and my husband an umbrella for the rain and wind that was becoming uncomfortable. Recommend this tour for in depth background of this city.
Great tour
