Great holiday experience
"We have been on many guided tours around the world but I can honestly say this was one of the most enjoyable. Instead of being bombarded with dates and facts, which you have forgotten by the end of the tour, Marten demonstrated what makes Amsterdam, Amsterdam and the Dutch the Dutch. He was friendly, engaging and knowledgable and subtly tailored our tour to our interests and requirements. Angela and I thank you, Marten, for enhancing our experience."

Review about Anne
"I recently joined the Treasures of Amsterdam: Coffeeshops and Red Light District Tour with Anne, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip. From the start, Anne created a warm and friendly atmosphere while sharing her deep knowledge of Amsterdam’s history, culture, and the unique stories that shape its most iconic neighbourhoods.
What I appreciated most was how naturally Anne blended fun with learning. She explained the coffeeshop culture, the city’s progressive policies, and the evolution of the Red Light District in a way that was engaging, respectful, and genuinely fascinating. On top of that, she shared amazing recommendations of other places to visit in the city — hidden spots, museums, cafés — which added even more value to the experience.
Overall, the tour felt personal, insightful, and incredibly enjoyable. Anne made everything feel safe, welcoming, and effortlessly interesting. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Amsterdam — especially if you have the chance to explore it with Anne!"

Amsterdam in November
"We had a fabulous time with Christa! She told us all about the city and was very knowledgeable about its history. We happened across an open air market and Christa was so accommodating and let us do some shopping 🛍 We stopped in a charming Cafe for coffees to take on our tour as the weather got a bit colder. We stopped in an adorable cheese shop. And, knowing we enjoyed vintage shopping, she ended our tour with taking us to an antique mall where we continued our adventure on our own. We had a wonderful day!!"
