Intro to Amsterdam

A great way to see old Amsterdam. It was just my wife and I don’t was a great experience. We walked around the old city and around the canals learning the history of the city. If you want an introduction to Amsterdam this is a good way.

Comprehensive tour of the City Center

Our guide, Sean, was personable, candid and very knowledgeable. We walked the city center, making stops at historical as well as general human points of interest. This was a very good introductory tour and helped familiarize us with the city center. We highly recommend this 2 1/2 hour tour!

Learning New Things

Even though I've been to Amsterdam before, I still learned so much from this walking tour. The guide was a very informative American who has lived in the Netherlands for decades. The entire group was actually American coincidentally. The group was 7 guests + 1 guide. I don't think a tour should be any larger since the streets can be crowded making it hard to stay together. I'd highly recommend a walking tour of most cities if you are new to a location, and this one was among the very best!

WOW, Amsterdam

Sean gave us a brief but very insightful introduction about Amsterdam’s urban development. And guided us through many historical buildings, restaurants, and landmarks. This left us a very memorable impression about Amsterdam.
