Jødisk Amsterdam Privat vandretur

Alex was extremely knowledgeable, interesting and entertaining! We wish had time to book and additional tour with him.

It seemed like the amount of Jewish history was sporadic. But in fairness we did not complete the whole tour. We did not hate it, but we did not love it either. The guide did buy the Anne Frank house tickets for us, and met us outside after our tour of the house.

The museum is next to the house, buy tickets in advance. In front of the museum there is a place where buying the boat ride along the canals is worth 17 euros.

We had a very exceptional Guide called Edwin. He took us through the old city of Amsterdam and told us with great detail and great historical precision. The history of the Jews in this city. Nothing was left to chance and we are very grateful to him for that.

Alex is the most amazing tour guide I have met. He hasn't only introduced us to Amsterdam, but to the European culture. I contacted him before my very first trip to Europe since I received his contact info from my friend. My Friend insured me that Alex is the right person to know in Europe. Alex was their guide few years ago and she couldn’t stop taking how interesting, knowledgeable and personable he was. Right from the beginning he helped me to prep for the tour since Amsterdam was our first stop in Europe. He made sure that we arrived safely and guided us all the way during our trip even after we left Amsterdam. He opened our eyes so much in a very short time. We explored Jewish and not Jewish Amsterdam. His kind attitude and willingness to help, welcome and teach about history is striking. There were no tickets for Anna Frank Museum, but Alex made sure we visited this important place for not only Jews but whole entire world. He guided us through all the Jewish landmarks in Amsterdam and we learnt about 400 years of successful Jewish community in Amsterdam. I felt like I belong to Amsterdam just because Alex’s guidance. I would give my raving reviews to to Alex and have the same wonderful, educational and welcoming experience. Thank you, Alex, for making our Euro trip unforgettable!

I would give 10 stars to this tour if I could! We had a wonderful tour with Aleks! Aleks was accommodating with our schedule, pleasant and knowledgeable about Amsterdam. We learned so much and visited beautiful historical sites in Amsterdam. I highly recommend this tour !

In a nutshell, Aleks saved the day! My husband and I were on a Viking river cruise from Bruges to our final stop Amsterdam. Having only one day in Amsterdam, we had so many things we wanted to see, and Aleks helped to make that happen. He was super human in customizing the tour to fit our time constraint and flexible in dealing with last-minute changes. He really knows his way around the city and we used public transportation (which added to the fun of getting from point A to B) You can tell he loves what he does, and is very kind, knowledgeable, versatile, patient and has seemingly endless energy Upon our request, He led us to a wonderful grocery store along the way for quick healthy grab and go snacks. Aleks was very respectful, considering the solemn subject matter of the memorials and gave us time to process and reflect. At the end of our tour, He personally escorted us to the front lobby of the Anne Frank house, as we had tickets that we bought 6 weeks previously on the Anne Frank house website PS don’t forget to do this if you are planning to visit Amsterdam in the near future…it must be six weeks out on a Tuesday morning 10 AM Amsterdam time but if you miss your chance, don’t worry check back every day to the website and you might get lucky we have friends that did… Aleks, we want to thank you again for the quality time spent together and the lasting memories created. Thank you for the perfect customized tour. Here’s wishing you many bags of potato chips. 😉 and a weedless garden. Your friends, Nancy and Doug

Alex was an excellent guide in Amsterdam . My wife and I visited for three days to learn more about the Jewish Resistance and Anne Frank during WWII. Alex purchased tickets to the Anne Frank house for us which are very difficult to find if you don’t purchase them months in advance. He met us as we exited the Frank house and took us to the Jewish Quarter and shared the history of the area as well as the history of Amsterdam about which he was very knowledgeable. He was a wealth of information about the history of the city; took us to places that were not on the usual tourist route (because they were on the smaller back streets that the tour buses can’t access) and then showed us an out-of-the-way pub for beer. We knew it was going to be a good experience when he initiated contact with us more than a month before our arrival and stayed in touch until we parted. I highly recommend him for tours of Amsterdam and any of the other cities that he guides in Europe. Thanks Alex!!

Aleks conducted himself professionally, punctually, knowledgeable, sincere, trusting, understanding, and caring. As an example, he was able to obtain tickets for us for the Anne Frank House Tour which was of optimal importance to us. He was amazing. His knowledge of history, and the ins and outs of life in Amsterdam were very interesting and helped us navigate our 3 days in Amsterdam. This was very important, specially being 4 women in a new city. We made contact with him days before our trip and he was able to guide us as to the weather, etc, which made us decide on the best clothes and items to take to Amsterdam and for our entire river trip. We wish him continued success. And will be passing his name forward to friends who in the future may travel to that part of the world. Thank you, Sonia

My husband and I have visited many countries over the 36 years we have been married. We usually have a private guide, and somehow I was fortunate in finding Alex without help from my travel agent. Well, our time spent with Alex was the best ever. He was able to secure tickets for the Anne Frank House, which was the highlight of our entire cruise. Alex is smart, incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and funny. Amsterdam is so fortunate to have you. Alex.
