Hi, I’m Max. I’m a historian with a deep love for Amsterdam and a background in international tourism. Over the years, I’ve learned that the best way to experience a city isn’t by rushing through highlights but by understanding its stories, rhythm, and hidden corners. I design personal, relaxed, and fully customized tours, shaped around what truly interests you—history, daily life, architecture, or simply walking and absorbing the city at your own pace. No scripts. No crowds. No pressure. I live in Amsterdam’s Museum District, an area I know intimately, and I enjoy helping visitors discover not only the famous landmarks but also the quieter neighborhoods where the city feels most authentic. What I enjoy most is meeting people from around the world and watching Amsterdam unfold naturally for them. If you’re looking for a tour that feels thoughtful and genuinely local, I’d be happy to explore the city with you. Experience & Credentials • Registered with the Chamber of Commerce in Amsterdam • 20+ years in the international tourism industry • Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration • Former Customer & Sales Executive at KLM & Air France • Former Finance Analyst at Booking.com Tours available: walking tours and private tours by car

Overview of your Amsterdam tour

Amsterdam reveals itself best on foot, at a human pace. On this 3-hour private walking tour, we’ll uncover the layers of the city’s past, starting at Dam Square, where royal history, power, and daily life intersect around the Royal Palace. From there, we drift into the UNESCO-listed canal district, a landscape of bridges, reflections, and stately houses that have shaped Amsterdam for centuries. I’ll show you beyond the postcard views, sharing the stories, details, and hidden corners that locals value and most visitors never notice. Along the way, we’ll pass elegant boutiques, the floating Flower Market, and atmospheric streets where history still feels alive. We’ll finish wherever feels right for you — back at your hotel or on a sun-lit café terrace by the canals. The tour can be fully tailored to your interests, creating a relaxed, personal experience that feels less like a tour and more like discovering the city with a local.
