Hi, my name is Bart. Great news that you're planning to visit The Netherlands. I'd love to contribute to make your stay unforgettable. I live with my family in the middle of Amsterdam and we enjoy the city every day. With my own consultancy firm I work with people from all over the world. It is so much fun to meet new people with completely different backgrounds and hearing their stories. My family and I also have great memories of our three years stay in Charlotte, North Carolina. I'm passionate about history, culture and art to feel and understand the choices made by people and to discover their stories that affect our lives today. If ever I'd need to stay on a desert island, I'd definitely bring my jazz music, mountain bike, great beers and cheese. I enjoy sharing my love for Amsterdam and all the incredible sites The Netherlands has to offer. I'm looking forward to showing you around and for you to experience and enjoy these special places. There are so many nice places to visit. So, if you have any special requests, I can easily set up a custom tour for you. All my regular tours are priced with Amsterdam as our starting point. But, should you want to start anywhere else, that's absolutely no problem. If you would like to compile a multi-day program with me? No problem! Just let me know and we'll put a nice program together. I love to customize my tours to your preferences and ideas. Half of my tours are custom tours! Next to my regular tours I would love to show you Belgium (e.g. Bruges, Ghent, Antwerp and Brussels). If you would like to do that out of Amsterdam I might be a very suitable tourguide for you. I've toured with travelers from all over the world: USA, Canada, Germany, Malaysia, Mexico, Guatemala, England, Kenia, South Africa, The Philippines and Hong Kong. Always a joy to have fun with foreigners!

Bart was great. Quizzed us on our interest prior to starting our tour. Things we wanted to see, anything we weren't interested in, etc. Once we started walking, he kept up a steady pace between pointing out interesting sites and storytelling about the history of Amsterdam. Never lingered too long and suggested a couple of breaks to give us a chance to rest our legs (and...

Hi S&G, I had a wonderful time with you. Thank you. I'm happy our tour worked out so well for you. Have a safe trip home! So long! :-)
We had an amazing day with Bart. We were able to see all the sites that we were interested in and never felt rushed. When asked about our recent trip the first topic talked about is this tour. Facebook has been flooded with our pictures of what we saw and learned on this tour, which was timely for Memorial Day. My daughter and her husband, who joined us, are...

Thank you L, for a great time. We had a wonderful salute to the guys of 1st and 82nd Airborne. It was my great pleasure to show you the battle sites. Say hello to the guys from me :-)
Bart was friendly, knowledgeable, and very flexible. He showed us around some of Amsterdam's highlights with great stories and historical facts. We would highly recommend his tour.

Thank you J. The pleasure was entirely mine. Say hello to the gang from me:-)
Excellent walking tour of the city. Bart is a true historian of his native Amsterdam. He asked us our special interests and easily wove them into our journey. He is enthusiastic, witty, and an excellent story teller. It is clear how much time and effort he has put into the preparation of his tours. It was a great way to spend our first day in this beautiful city and it...
