“We had a wonderful and engaging walking tour with Anna, who brought Amsterdam’s colorful history to life as we explored its charming neighborhoods and picturesque canals. The city’s architecture was fascinating, and Anna did an excellent job explaining how the different building styles evolved over the centuries as Amsterdam grew. She was friendly, accommodating, and happy to answer all of our questions. I highly recommend Anna to anyone looking for a fun, informative, and personal introduction to Amsterdam.”

“We really wanted to like this tour, but it wasn’t what we signed up for. Edwin was nice enough, but he gave us more of a “general info about Rotterdam” tour than an architecture tour.

A private 2-hour Gouda walk mixing Gothic sights and cheese culture, with a museum stop at De Goudse Waag and optional church entries.

The two guides that gave us the tour were extremely knowledgeable of the history of Gouda and did an amazing job of relating the information to us! Definitely well worth the tour for the knowledge. I really enjoyed the tour but it wasn’t the tour…”
