Our guide Sandra was really nice! Just book it
We did this tour with our family and it was such a good introduction to the city. The guide Sandra was so friendly and really knew his stuff, pointing out all the main spots and sharing interesting stories. The pace was perfect for kids and adults alike, and it gave us a really good feel for Amsterdam in a short time. Definitely recommend this tour with Sandra
