Hi, I’m a longtime Amsterdam local and have called this city home for more than 26 years. As a passionate traveller myself, I know the best journeys are not just about seeing places, but about truly experiencing them and making meaningful connections. I enjoy creating tours that feel personal, relaxed, engaging, and full of authentic moments. Whether it’s your first time in the Netherlands or your fifth, I want you to experience the country in your own unique way. My tours combine famous highlights with hidden corners, local neighbourhoods, food tastings, history, culture, WW2 stories, and Jewish heritage. I especially enjoy introducing my guests to both the famous landmarks and the hidden corners they may never find on their own. Beyond Amsterdam, I also offer countryside tours to charming villages, flower fields, castles, scenic landscapes, and beautiful small towns away from the busy tourist crowds. The Netherlands has so much more to offer than Amsterdam alone. Travel is comfortable and easy in electric Mercedes-Benz minivan for up to 6 guests, with a professional driver, air conditioning, USB charging ports, tinted windows, and complimentary water bottles. For groups larger than 6 people, please contact me for a quote. If the tours currently offered do not fully match your preferences or interests, please feel free to contact me to arrange a customized tour tailored to your wishes and travel style The Netherlands is full of surprises, and I’d be happy to help you discover them You are all very welcome! - Registered as tour guide in the Dutch Chamber of Commerce - Private tour guide in Amsterdam since April 2016 - Official Permit City of Amsterdam for guided tours in the historical centre - Education in Tourism at Leiden Educational Institutions, NL - Official IATA travel agent - Working experience as a tour operator and travel agent - Covid 19 fully vaccinated - Experienced restaurant host with culinary and wine knowledge

City's most essential sights
Overview of your Amsterdam tour
Discover Amsterdam beyond its iconic landmarks on a personal journey through the city’s historic heart. Together, we’ll explore the story of Amsterdam’s Golden Age, its beautiful UNESCO canals, centuries-old architecture, and unique relationship with water that shaped the city into what it is today. Along the way, I will guide you not only through the famous sights, but also through hidden alleys and quiet corners rarely discovered by visitors. Through stories of tolerance, diversity, and local traditions, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of Amsterdam’s multicultural spirit and everyday Dutch life. Food is an essential part of every culture, and I’ll introduce you to authentic local favourites throughout the tour. There is no finer way to end the tour than with a traditional Dutch apple pie in a historic canal-side café. Join me for a genuine Amsterdam experience!
