“It was a bit confusing about the meeting location. The signage there was very small. I totally missed it at first. But once we got started, the cruise was lovely. Nice wine and snacks. Adding chips to the snacks would have been nice. Our guide was a very nice young man. Elian I think. He did a great job.”

Private 2-hour Anne Frank neighborhood walk in Amsterdam South with coffee and diary story, no Anne Frank House tickets.
“June 2016 - Linda Verbeek was our tour guide. She did an wonderful job of bringing Anne Frank's experiences to life for us. Her descriptions of Anne's personality, family life, and life during the War were vivid. We had tickets for the Anne Frank House a couple hours before the neighborhood tour and didn't realize that Anne's neighborhood was so far from the House she hid in. The distance is not walkable. But, we figures out the tram system and got to Anne's neighborhood in plenty of time. The tour description should emphasize the distance between the House and Anne's neighborhood. We had a private tour for 4 adults. After…”

“During my two-hour tour around Amsterdam Centre with the enthusiastic guide Manouk, I saw lots of interesting stuff and learned about its history. The tour was a great experience and offering me glimpses into both the city's past and present. Manouk knows a ton and is super passionate. A delightful pause for coffee was followed by a pleasant surprise—a typical Dutch souvenir. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend this tour to others.”

A 2-hour small-group history walk through Amsterdam’s canals, church reforms, Jewish history, and royal stories, ending at Dam Square.
“When we arrived at the tour site, the operator had no idea we were coming, and no guide was available, although our voucher clearly showed we had booked the tour. The operator graciously agreed to substitute a 90 minute canal tour., which we enjoyed immensely. So, a not-so-great review for Viator, but a big thumbs up for Hit the Bricks/Those Dam Boat Guys Tours and our guide, Mark.”
Private 2-hour Amsterdam pedicab tour with guide Bram de Haan, Dam Square to Museumplein, canals, Jewish quarter, and photo stops.
“Upon arrival in Amsterdam, our hotel was in a very busy area of the city as I was not impressed. After the tour with Bram, my view of the city totally changed. He was personable, friendly and knowledgeable. He took us to quieter parts of the city explaining g history along the way. We had a unique experience of viewing historical photos taken by his ancestors and comparing them to present day. We enjoyed it so much we stayed on the tour for an extra hour. I highly recommend this tour.”
