Fantastic tour!
"Rolf was a great guide! He really gave us a full history of Rembrandt and Vermeer and having him made our experience at the Rijksmuseum perfect. It was exactly what we were looking for!"
"Helena took me on an amazing tour of the Dock and the shipbuilding company which closed down in 1978. Very talented artists have painted graffiti on the walls. I wanted to experience Amsterdam as the citizens do. Helena took me on the Metro, the ferry and the bus. It was wonderful!"
"Christa was extremely pleasant and personal. I particularly like the fact that she was able to pick us up right at the ship terminal and leave us off there. This driving feature was not available for many of your other Withlocals in addition to seeing Amsterdam we were interested in seeing part of the countryside the Netherlands itself and this can only be done in a car.
In the city, we did a long walking tour and saw virtually every site and I found Christa quite knowledgeable and helpful"

Great WWII Tour in Amsterdam
"We had a wonderful WWII tour with Laura Maria. She was very informative about the history that took place in Amsterdam during WWII. A lot of details we did not know and she was very knowledgeable about what happened during this time. Laura Maria was very friendly and kind and I would highly recommend her for this tour. She gave us a great recommendation for a restaurant for lunch after the tour!"
"Annet brought us to the quieter Amsterdam to capture some beautiful scenes and sights. Was super helpful taking photos of us and teaching us how to take scenic photos with IPhone! Super got to understand Amsterdam a bit more like a local. Was a great start to our trip."
"I travel often and have experienced many tours. Laura Maria makes a person want to move to Amsterdam. She is knowledgeable, patient, warm, flexible, and loves guiding. My daughter and I booked her WW11 tour which was informative and interesting. If I did it again, I would hire her for as many days as you want to tour. She can guide you in all things/ food/ culture/ history/ current events/ politics/ and places around the country. She also can suggest a car and driver to accompany a tour. She is lovely. I HIGHLY recommend Laura Maria. "

From tour guide to friend
"Having already been on a tour with Sebastian in 2019 we returned to Amsterdam in 2024 with the intention of seeing Sebastian again. He is wonderful! Sebastian led us on a personalized tour of Haarlem this year, through the markets, shops and sights. Sebastian is more than a tour guide to us, he has become a friend with whom we shall remain in touch. I highly recommend him. Sebastian’s knowledge of the Amsterdam area is unmatched and you are sure to enjoy his personality and unique charm. We look forward to seeing him again in the future! "

I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a thrilling adventure outside of Utrecht with an incredible tour guide who took me on a Ural Sidecar ride. This experience surpassed all my expectations, and I would highly recommend this tour guide to anyone seeking an unforgettable and exhilarating exploration of the Utrecht countryside.
From the moment I met my tour guide, his enthusiasm and passion for Utrecht's natural beauty were evident. He made sure I felt comfortable and safe throughout the journey, providing clear instructions on how to enjoy the Ural Sidecar ride to its fullest. His expertise in navigating the winding roads and picturesque landscapes was truly impressive, allowing me to relax and fully immerse myself in the stunning surroundings.
What truly set this tour guide apart was their knowledge of the area. As we traveled through the countryside, he shared captivating stories and fascinating facts about the history, culture, and local traditions. His deep understanding of the region added a layer of richness to the experience, making each stop along our route even more meaningful.
The Ural Sidecar ride itself was an absolute thrill! The wind in my hair and the breathtaking views unfolding before me created a sense of freedom and adventure that I had never experienced before. The tour guide's skillful driving and attention to safety made me feel at ease, allowing me to fully embrace the exhilaration of the ride.
Moreover, the tour guide's friendly and warm personality made the journey even more enjoyable. He was attentive to my interests and preferences, ensuring that the tour was tailored to suit my desires. His genuine enthusiasm for sharing their love for the Utrecht countryside was contagious, and I felt like I was exploring with a knowledgeable friend rather than a traditional tour guide.
Overall, I cannot sing enough praises for this exceptional tour guide who took me on an unforgettable Ural Sidecar adventure. His expertise, passion, and commitment to providing a unique and memorable experience were truly remarkable. If you're seeking an exhilarating and informative exploration of the Utrecht countryside, I wholeheartedly recommend booking a tour with this remarkable guide.
Thank you, once again, for a truly unforgettable adventure!"
