Experience the best of Utrecht with Withlocals

"Tommi created a customized walking tour of Amsterdam for our family, which was a blend of history and food. He told stories that kept our 5 and 9 year old interested and motivated to walk for the three hours together. We all learned new things and very much enjoyed our afternoon with Tommi. "

"Such a great time. He was informative not just from an art history perspective but also put Dutch history into the tour. We loved it "

"Joram is a fun guy and incredibly interesting person to hang out and explore Amsterdam with. He’s extremely knowledgeable about everything and has his own history that’s a tour of its own. We did the red light + “coffee shop” tour and have near local knowledge on the best places to go thanks to Joram. "

"Did the red lights district and coffee shop tour with with Joe and would highly recommend him. A friendly, knowledgable guy who taught us a lot about the history of the city as well as helping us to plan the rest of our stay. We enjoyed our 2 hours with Joe. "

"Olga is a wealth of knowledge about Amsterdam. She shared history, legends, hidden spots for food and drink, and explained the architecture of the city. I was passing through on a long layover, and this tour was a perfect way to familiarize myself with a new city. And, she makes it feel like walking with a friend. I highly recommend her and this experience! "

"My family (husband & sons aged 17 & 19) and I spent a fabulous few hours with Tommi last week touring the hidden gems of Amsterdam. We specified our interests as unique aspects of history, architecture & culture and were not disappointed. Highly recommend as an efficient and enjoyable way to gain an alternate view of the city, beyond the usual tourist sites. We covered a lot of ground walking and via train/ tram, and ventured to parts of the city we would otherwise not thought to have seen. My sons and husband - a relatively tough crowd - were thoroughly engrossed and we all came away having learned something new and interesting. Tommi is extremely enthusiastic and passionate about his city, which made our tour extremely worthwhile. Highly recommend! Note: The cost of transport tickets and lunch is on top of the ticket price which we hadn’t really thought about but didn’t bother us (mentioning as may concern some). "

"I’ll be honest, I was a little worried a private tour could be awkward as a solo traveller but my concerns ended up being silly and I’m so happy to have spent the afternoon on a tour with Olga. Olga is the kind of local that just really loves her city, not because it’s perfect but because of has history and spirit and culture, and she really clearly enjoys sharing that in her tour. Right when I booked Olga reached out to offer any help I might need and she came through with some phenomenal bakery and bookstore recommendations for me. We met In a central spot and walked most of the old city, stopping every few minutes to see or learn something I never would’ve noticed otherwise—so many hidden gems in AMS! We chatted along the route and even swapped some travel stories. I took notes on everywhere I want to go back to and I already know I need another trip to AMS, which will definitely include another tour with Olga!"

"We booked on Monday for a Thursday afternoon tour with Estella. It was our first visit to Amsterdam and we wanted to see and learn about the highlights and a bit of history. We let her know that we had arrived from Chicago that morning and might not last the full 3 hours. Because it was late in the day, she tailored our tour so we could see important places in daylight. Estella’s English was excellent and she gave us options to choose from along the way, so we could make the most of our time together. She showed us fascinating sites like a beautiful hidden church and Begijnhof. She was very personable, funny and accommodated our needs. We would highly recommend booking a tour with Estella!"

"Olga was an awesome tour guide. Her food tour took us to the best places that the locals eat and drink at. As well as taught us some history of the city. "

"We had a wonderful time with Christa. Our group consisted of five, including my parents in their 70s and my two children, aged 10 and 13. Despite the wide age gap, everyone enjoyed themselves. Christa was very accommodating and engaging, showing us all the little details we would never have noticed on our own without a guide. Although she’s Dutch, she speaks fluent French. Having a local share their city experiences always adds a special touch—you feel more connected to the city and its residents."
