Tijs was very knowledgeable about the history of Amsterdam and provided an excellent tour. He was able to answer many questions and provide information that I did not know prior to the tour. I would recommend this to anyone interested in the history of Amsterdam.

My wife and I took the Financi History Tour with Edgar.. Edgar was an excellent tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable sbout the financial history of Amsterdam, where the stock market had its roots. I would highly recommend this tour for people interested in financial historty of the innovarive Dutch.

Greatly enjoyed the tour and discussions.

My beloved and I had a spectacular time on our tour with Tijs. We both agree it was our highlight of an already amazing first trip to Amsterdam. His passion for Dutch history is palpable, and you can't help but get excited along with him. He had answers for each of our questions and went to considerable lengths to tailor the tour to our preferences I would enthusiastically recommend taking this tour to anyone visiting the city.

Tijs was a great tour guide, friendly and very informative! The tour was very informative covering financial and general Amsterdam history.

We had a wonderful tour on the financial history of Amsterdam with Tijs as part of a student excursion. He is a very pleasant and knowledgeable guide who took us to many different places around the city. Many of the sites and stories he shared were real hidden gems—things you would never come across in a standard guidebook or on a typical tour. Tijs clearly has many years of experience and has built up an impressive amount of insider knowledge, which he enjoys sharing with great enthusiasm. I felt genuinely enriched after the tour, leaving with new insights, historical knowledge, and plenty of fun facts to think about. The tour is quite long and involves a fair amount of walking, and by the end most of us were rather exhausted—while Tijs still seemed as fresh and energetic as at the start. All in all, a highly recommendable tour that we enjoyed very much.

My husband is a history and finance major. Having been to Amsterdam a few times we were excited to find this Financial History. Edgar was so interesting, detailing the history of finance including all the political history of the Netherlands. We would highly recommend him. Check out his other tours too.

Fabulous tour if you are interested in the extent that the Dutch have been in the forefront of financial innovation. Tijs de Boer is a fabulous tour guide and full of insights as well as local hints on any and everything. Highly recommend taking this tour.

We had our tour with Tijs — everything was perfect. He walked us on a beautiful route, stopping along the way with great narration tied into Amsterdam’s rich financial history. Our guide was personable and knowledgeable— highly recommended!

This was a really great tour. The topic is rich, and I would say, very under appreciated. Edgar, the tour guide, did a wonderful job shedding light on very interesting topics and threads. Not least, just how much of the modern world took shape here in Amsterdam. As an American and a person who lived in New York, the connections are many and illuminating but surely there is plenty here for anyone.
