Wonderful experience - We stayed on June 2: we were 14 in all and the two guides (Valerio and Anna) were exceptional: nice, prepared, ready to answer all our questions. In short, an experience to recommend (continued in the afternoon in Volendam and Marken Island). At the end of the day thanks to the empathy created between everyone (and favored by the two guides), we seemed like a group of friends! Thanks also to the other guide Luca who solved a problem. Given the great experience I am recommending Amsterdam Viaggi to all friends who are planning to visit Amsterdam.
