Custom 3 hour walking tour through Amsterdam
Adam was great. Knowledgeable and very animated. Quite a fun filled three hour walking tour through the highlights of Amsterdam.

Private walking Tour of Amaterdam
We had a great afternoon walking with Sunil through the city of Amsterdam and being filled in on all the interesting and fun facts.He was very aware to keep the pace at a level that our group could manage.we would definitely have no hesitation in recommending Sunil.

Good Overall
I was disappointed that the tour guide did not contact us prior to the tour to discuss what we wanted to see like they did for Bergen and Oslo. He kept walking too fast for my Dad and I even though we told him we couldn’t move fast. He did give us a LOT of good history of the city of Amsterdam, including a “secret” church within the old convent. Secret because you cannot tell it is a church from the outside. We saw many local sights that you wouldn’t probably see in a group tour. I don’t think tour guides should bring up their opinions on religion or politics as those are two very controversial topics. I suggest he try not to do that unless it is part of the history of the city. All in all a good tour.

Lawrence was an excellent...
Lawrence was an excellent guide on our 3 hour tour. We saw so much of Amsterdam outside of the tourist areas. His knowledge of the history of the city is great. We enjoyed every minute of it.

Walking tour
Sunil our guide was excellent. Saw everything to see plus pointed out and took us throughout the city. Excellent pace and perspective on city provided. Highly recommended.
V
Great
Sunil was a great guide. He took us to some great spots and kept the pace slow which was greatly appreciated since we are 82, 74 and 69! We were able to see lots of sights and hear the history which made the tour more interesting than doing it on our own. He also explained the tram system so we were able to do it on our own the next day

Amsterdam Walking Tour with Sunil
SUNIL was awesome!! Highly recommend! He was very thorough explaining history and was accommodating to us needing to stop for water etc. It was a great intro to the beautiful city of Amsterdam!
K
Just do a Self Guided tour
Basically just walked around the area. Not much history told or anything about the area. He was very nice and did walk us to a destination we requested for the tour to end. Not worth the money. We could have done all this on our own.

Overpriced
Sadly the issue is not quality of tour as guide was brilliant but the cost is too much and not value for money. It is overpriced for 2 hours and not much in it. We paid £135 for 3 adults and in the 2 hours not much to see sadly.
