A must book!! - Aaron was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. The Anne Frank tour was both moving and informative, and the two hours flew by without us even noticing. Highly recommend.

Very interesting!! - I’m really glad I did this tour. The guide explained Anne Frank’s story in a very respectful way. Walking through the streets where everything actually happened made a big difference. It gave me much more context than I had before and I’d definitely recommend it if you want to understand this part of Amsterdam’s history better

Eye opening - Walking through the streets and hearing the stories from our guide made Anne Frank’s experiences feel so real, and learning about the Jewish community in the city added so much depth. It was emotional, eye-opening, and definitely made me see things in a completely new way

1st Time - James was very personable and Knowledge. He was a great tour guide. I thought we would have walked to Ann Frank's house (at least to see it from the outside). However, James showed us some sights that were not well known as well asthose known. Very impactful tour. We will never forget.
