HBTQI History Tour i Amsterdam i liten grupp

Amsterdam som gayhuvudstad hur gick det till? Gayemancipation genom tiderna. Hur det var att vara gay på 1600-talet. Hur kom vi från att vara sodomit på 1600-talet till HBT nu, vikten av språk. Denna 2 timmar långa promenad genom Amsterdam är illustrerad med berättelser om homosexuella hjältar, aktivister, författare, poesi och motståndsmän.

Raka människor mer än välkomna Vi börjar vid Homo-monumentet och slutar vid "het Mandje", den äldsta gaybaren i världen på Zeedijk. Din guide Henk är en stor historiker och berättare enligt tidigare deltagare.

I loved this tour with Henk. He’s super friendly, funny, and knows an incredible amount about Amsterdam’s LGBTQI+ history. It felt like walking around the city with a very knowledgeable friend rather than being on a formal tour. The stories were fascinating, the stops were meaningful, and I learned so much about people and moments that don’t usually make it into the guidebooks. Ending at one of the city’s oldest gay bars was a perfect touch. If you want something unique, personal, and genuinely interesting, definitely book this tour.
Thank you for this great review, really appreciate it!!
This LGBT History Tour is truly something special. You learn so much about past events that affect us all in the community. Who, historically speaking, stood up for us under dramatic and dangerous conditions... this is one of the topics that Henk presented to us in a very warm, authentic, and emotional way. Thank you so much, dear Henk! Highly recommended!!!
Thank you for this great review, it will help me spread the gay gospel :-)
Informative and entertaining, passionate and thought provoking tour. So much I didn’t know, has made me more aware of the inequalities and the fight to get the community where they are today.
thank you :-)
I had the most wonderful and enlightening time with Henk, our lovely tour guide. Before going on the tour, I thought it would be about the queer struggle in the Netherlands, but instead, Henk made a very solemn and thought provoking connection to the Dutch political history at every step - and how queer people were always there, and were there for the country even when the country was not there for them. From his vast knowledge of dutch history and his dedication to the queer cause - my friend and i talked about it for hours after. This tour left me with questions that I will carry back to my own homeland - who were the queer heroes in my history? perhaps history books don't really carry the names of our queer historical figures, but they were a part of our freedom struggle nonetheless, they were there even if I don't know them. He not only made the queer dutch history relevant to everyone, no matter what our background is - international, dutch, straight or queer, and he kept it so grounded in the Dutch society. This was such a well thought out tour, because even if I forget the specifics, I'll perhaps always get a tiny bit of courage from the men and women who have constantly stood up for the things they believed in & the things that mattered, to them and to people they cared about.
You brought tears to my eyes, your review captured my essence. I try to tell stories from the perspective of my queer community and let it all speak for itself.
If you are a history enthusiast, or if you are particularly interested in ww2 or the history of Amsterdam, this is an experience you should not miss. The tour offered a refreshing perspective on historical events I thought I already knew well. Having joined many walking guided tours across Europe, this was the first time I truly felt that history can look very different when viewed from another angle. The stories of people who were buried under layers of historical narratives deserve to be seen and remembered. I’m very glad I joined.
Thank you for the review. You put it exactly right, I want to give a different narrative on history. A queer perspective. Thank you again for making the effort for writing this. :-) Henk
This was an amazing tour of the city! Henk blends his distinct experiences, historical knowledge, humor and community advocacy to create a tour that when it was over left you wanting more. Spending time with him felt like getting together for a discussion with an old friend. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the historical references tour pace and back and forth discussions. This is a tour for anyone that is in the LGBTQ+ community or anyone with interest in Amsterdam history as seen through the lens of one of our proud members.
Thank you for the appreciation. It really means a lot for me that you took the time to write this and the words you used. I will keep going. Henk
This was an absolutely unique experience: Henk combines his wealth of knowledge about LGBT history with personal stories and experiences. And as a true proponent for the community he has a lot to share! I very much enjoyed the conversations throughout the tour - it was more than just learning about facts but instead diving into characters, evolutions and realities. Having done many guided tours I can truly say that this one is of outstanding quality! Thank you Henk!
Hi M., Thank you for this wonderful review :-) Henk
Henk's skill at bringing alive Amsterdam's LGBTQI+ forgotten hero's is praiseworthy. Amsterdam, the beacon of tolerance as we know it now. But learning of those who bravely fought for us and how their histories were sidelined is such a pertinent wake-up call. Henk is still a charming, inclusive and entertaining host.
Oh, thnx so much for this. Your review is hartwarming.
Book this tour. It was a privilege to be reminded of those powerful and brave people who fought for our rights before our time. To consider again our LGBTQ+ truths within a historical and future perspective. Bravo Henk.
Thank you for this review. Warms my hart. :-) Henk
It was a very interesting tour with a devoted and knowledgeable guide Henk. Well worth I think, thank you for a great tour!
Thnx M. Much appreciated! Henk
