ABOUT Amsterdam

Discover Amsterdam with a local guide in a memorable walking tour

Amsterdam, the vibrant capital of the Netherlands, is a must-visit destination in Europe. With its iconic canals, rich history, and free spirit, it offers a unique blend of culture and adventure. Join us on our guided Walking Tours and uncover the city’s best-kept secrets with a passionate local guide who will take you beyond the usual tourist spots.

Our Free Tour of Amsterdam starts in the iconic Dam Square and takes you through the city’s most notable sights. You’ll have the chance to take photos of the canals, bridges, and typical Amsterdam houses, explore the Jewish Quarter, find hidden churches with fascinating stories, learn about the Dutch biking culture that defines local life, and discover the hidden Begijnhof of Amsterdam, one of the city’s most peaceful and beautiful spots.

Discover Amsterdam’s countryside with our partner’s electric bike tour: the Amsterdam Countryside: Zaanse Schans Electric Bike Tour. Enjoy a smooth ride across the river on a ferry, explore the historic Zaanse Schans village and escape the city centre for a refreshing countryside adventure.

Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveller, our walking tours provide a deep and engaging experience that will leave you with a new appreciation for Amsterdam’s history and culture. Book your tour today and see the city through the eyes of a knowledgeable local guide.
