Incredible time! - We had an amazing experience on our Amsterdam walking tour with Aaron! He was incredibly personable, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the city. Our tour actually ended up being private, which made the experience even more special and personalized. Aaron took us beyond the typical tourist spots and showed us so many hidden gems throughout the city that we would have never found on our own. We really felt a genuine connection with him, which made the tour feel more like exploring with a friend than a guide. He also gave us fantastic recommendations for places we were interested in visiting and kept it completely real about which spots were overrated—which we absolutely appreciated. That honesty made his recommendations even more valuable. I would highly recommend Aaron and his tour to anyone visiting Amsterdam. It was truly one of the highlights of our trip!

James was a great guide! - We had a great time with James! He was very knowledgeable about the city and its history. We saw lots of notable sights, and things we wouldn’t have known about otherwise. It was a great introductory tour to start our time in Amsterdam.

All we needed for our layover, all of Amsterdam in one tour - We went with our family of 4 including two teenagers that can be difficult sometimes to please. However the guide Guido did an amazing job keeping the whole family interested. Since this was just a layover for us, we’re really glad we chose to do this tour. We can now happily say we’ve experienced Amsterdam and crossed it off our travel list.

Amazing tour - This intro tour was a perfect way to start our first day in Amsterdam. Our guide was friendly and full of interesting stories about the city’s history and culture. The pace was just right—not too rushed, with plenty of time to take photos. By the end, we felt like we had a good sense of the city and some great tips for exploring on our own. Thank you Gio!
