Description
Start your journey with the best introduction to Amsterdam on a 2.5-hour walking tour through the historic city center. Led by an expert English or Spanish-speaking guide (Dutch upon request), explore the city’s iconic landmarks while hearing fascinating stories about its growth from a muddy village on the Amstel River to one of Europe’s most important trading cities. Discover Amsterdam’s contrasts, from the history of prostitution and drug decriminalization to its cultural, artistic, and architectural heritage.
At the end of the tour, enjoy a typical Dutch pancake menu in a cozy city-center restaurant, including a starter of pea soup or Dutch delicacies, a pancake main dish, and dessert or coffee. We always aim to schedule the tasting at 1:30 pm, but in some cases, it may take place later. Afterward, continue exploring Amsterdam at your own pace, visiting museums, cafés, or charming streets.

Incredible walking tour- a must for first time visitors
Walking tour or central Amsterdam- amazing first day with an incredible guide-Pia.
We were given a voucher for a Dutch pancake which also included a cup of delicious pea soup with bacon and a roll with butter. Plus ice cream.
Pia was so knowledgeable and friendly. A great first day here!

I’ve been on a lot of...
I’ve been on a lot of walking tours in many cities around the globe. Most include a lot of history and details on what we’re seeing. We walked by a lot of things without explanation. This tour could have been so much better if the guide had done that vs talking about the cost of rent, his house buying experience, etc. I like to learn a lot on tours like this and I think a self guided tour I download would have been better.
Operator response
Hello Karen,
We are very sorry that the style of our guide did not meet your personal expectations, although we greatly appreciate that a traveller with so much experience has given us their point of view. Many of our customers appreciate precisely this human and contemporary touch on real life in Amsterdam, as it is something that a downloadable audio guide could never offer to complement the history of the city.

Interesting tour.
The guide, Anthony, was great and gave us many interesting facts and showed us several interesting places. Dutch Pancake Masters was excellent. My only negative comment is that we were there on a very crowded Saturday (the day before Easter Sunday), and it was challenging to keep up with Anthony because of the crowds (and I’m a good walker). He did not check to make sure everyone was keeping up.

Unsatisfactory
Did not receive items as promised on ticket. Waiter was less than friendly when I presented my ticket. He made uncomfortable. Would not go back to that establishment
Operator response
Dear Kathy
we are very sorry to hear the waiter was unfriendly. We already forwarded your complaint to our partner (the restaurant owner) and we are working to avoid this kind of situation in the future.
We hope you enjoyed the walking tour with our guides.
Thanks for your feedback and once again we apologize for any inconvenience at the restaurant.

Get to know the charming city and atmosphere of Amsterdam.
Rob was an amazing guide with his depth of knowledge and his cadence integrating all of the information into a wonderful experience. It was a true introduction to Amsterdam and its history. I had been to Amsterdam before, but now I feel I have a better understanding of it as well as the Dutch people. We also had the pancake lunch. The food was excellent and the service outstanding. I had the best tomato soup I had ever tasted served with pesto. I highly recommend this tour.
