Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"I was absolutely thrilled with Tommi’s tour. He was knowledgeable, on time, thoughtful, funny and super informative. He reached out to me before we arrived for our tour, and sent super helpful information about the weather, the Amsterdam Airport, tips to get through Schiphol and how to find the way to our hostel. He checked in the day before the tour to verify that we were on schedule. Thank you so much for a wonderful tour Tommi, we really appreciated the tour, your expertise and time. It was a pleasure meeting you. "
"Annet was immediately friendly and easily engaged our group with great storytelling and sharing details about this incredible city. We especially loved asking her questions and learning about life in the Netherlands. Annet provided our first experience of our week together, and her foundation set the stage for our week. Throughout the rest of the week, my guests kept referring back to, "remember, Annet told us that...", which showed just how engaged they were. An initial orientation after long travel can be hit-and-miss, but Annet was the real deal. She captivated everyone with her stories and details. She made the "real Amsterdam" approachable and accessible for us, and we will always treasure the time we spent with her. Don't hesitate, book her now! "
"Olga did a fabulous job sharing the hidden gems of Amsterdam with us! We’d been to Amsterdam before, but she showed us details we’d never encountered before. Her detailed insights and stories added a lot to the experience. We’d be happy to recommend Olga to anyone traveling in Amsterdam!"
"My wife and I booked a private tour with Anne. While we love the attractions in Amsterdam (Anne Frank, Van Gough, Rijksmuseum) our initial impression was that most of Amsterdam was crowded and touristy. Anne changed that feeling. She knows the place to see that aren't so crowded, some courtyards, university quads, quieter canal streets. It was really worth the time and the money to see the less well known areas. I don't think it's possible to find those places using a guidebook, even a good one! Also, Anne pointed us to the Portuguese Synagogue which was wonderful, and walked us by Our Lord in the Attic as less visited attractions to pursue later. Anne's English was excellent, and her delivery was geared to just two people, which we liked. (Some tour guides are always shouting whether two or twenty in the group). Anne messaged me ahead of the tour to be sure her tour was focused on what we wanted to see. Also, she met us at our hotel, which was near NewMarket Square. "
"Anna was extremely knowledgeable and informative, and super nice and friendly. We couldn’t have had a better experience!! Thanks to her we learned so much of the historical context of the golden age of Dutch art as well as insights of the artists , architecture and art. Terrific afternoon!!"
"Olga was a great guide. She was very knowledgeable of the history of Amsterdam, and made the tour fun. I would highly recommend her."
"First day in the Netherlands with my brother and adult son. Having Tommi spend the day with us was a great decision. He geographically oriented us and gave us social insight that kept us in good stead for the rest of the week. Tommy is very knowledgeable, exceedingly polite, and a joy to spend time with. I recommend Tommy as your guide without reservation. "
"We used Christa for a tour of the red light district. We were late of the tour and Christa kept in contact and was very patient. She was also very helpful when one of our party left a cell phone in the uber (which we got back) Christa was very knowledgable and we enjoyed learning about the history of the red light district and their cafes. I would definitely recommend Christa"
"Marten was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable, relaxed and easy to talk to. The tour was far more than a guided walk through an art gallery - it was a history lesson with the paintings used to illustrate the various developments. It was interesting, entertaining and very worthwhile. We highly recommend Marten and this tour. "
"Vita is so knowledgeable about Dutch art and explained everything clearly. She was also very considerate of our pacing and our requests regarding what to see and what to skip."
