Hello! I am Arun, and am ready to offer you an unique experience in Amsterdam. I am a historian and an award-winning sports writer with a fascination for reading, art, history, culture and cuisine. I love meeting people from different parts of the world, and creating memories for them. When people travel, they are full of curiosity, eagerness to enjoy and bonhomie. In short, they are full of positive energy. I love touching their lives at that precise moment and sharing the joy and happiness of discovery that comes with touring. I have lived and worked around the world but decided to make Amsterdam my home. Golden Age canals lined by quaint gabled buildings, fascinating museums, treasure-packed shops, a vibrant design and art scene, endless choices of culinary delights, history eloquent in every brick, the lure of the Red Light District . . . and, last but not the least, the fascinating getaways into the heart of nature if you know your way around town and outskirts. It is a city I have fallen in love with and can make you fall in love with as well. Whether it is biking like locals, wandering around the quaint canals and the narrow alleys, taking a peek behind the great masterpieces of Rembradnt and Van Gogh, tasting local delicacies, learning how the Red Light District works, or getting away from the busy center to visit Windmills and other countryside attractions, I can arrange it for you. There are plenty of attractions off the beaten track, from secret courtyards to James Bond filming locations. Throbbing city center, delightful museums, offbeat locales, countryside excursions. I can customize the tour in whichever way you want. See you in Amsterdam. You will love the experience. Tot ziens. -Municipality Licence for touring in Old Amsterdam -Published Author of Historical fiction -Published Author of non-fiction (history) with a pair of international award shortlists -Award Winning Sports Writer -Art and History Buff

Arun was a fantastic guide: very knowledgeable, personable and flexible. He has an interesting background. We learned so much about Amsterdam's history and culture, and appreciated the stories he told. Arun definitely kept our attention as we adjusted to the time change after an overnight flight from the US. I would highly recommend Arun.

Thank you Kathleen. I am very happy that you enjoyed the tour.
Our party of three had a wonderful late afternoon tour through the Albert Cuyp market with Arun. We tried so many foods that were new to us - all delicious in their own way. Arun is attentive and thoughtful. He picked us up at our hotel in Dam Square so we didn't have to navigate the tram system by ourselves. He ordered us more than enough food to serve as our dinner for...

Arun was a great guide! We had so much fun. This is a great way to explore Amsterdam.
If you enjoy food tours, we would highly recommend tour this market with Arun. Every tasting that Arun arranged gave us a real feel for the culture and food tastes of the Netherlands. Arun had clearly put significant thought into not only which tastings to include but also into the order in which the tasting s should occur. We needed to change the starting point of...
