ABOUT ME Hello, I’m Dennis and I love my city. I’m a true enthusiast of culture, art, food and architecture. Born and raised in the Dutch countryside, I pursued my studies in Architecture before setting off on a journey that took me around the globe. I found my home in Amsterdam in 2004, and since then, this vibrant city has become an integral part of my life. I know Amsterdam inside and out—its hidden gems, its rich history, and its spirit. Much like the city itself, I have an adventurous and free spirit. My friends often call me a foodie, and I take great joy in discovering new flavors. I’m also an avid cyclist, embracing the freedom of exploring Amsterdam, and I can’t resist getting lost in a good book. I believe in sharing the best things life has to offer, and I’ve developed a unique ability to connect with people from all walks of life. I’m always excited to share the stories and experiences that make Amsterdam and the Netherlands so special. To call my passion my profession is truly a dream come true. My enthusiasm is genuine, and I’m thrilled to invite you to discover the magic of this city. My aim isn’t just to be your guide—I’m here to be your friend. HOW I WORK Imagine discovering Amsterdam and the Netherlands as if with a trusted local friend, but with the expertise and refinement of a private concierge. As your personal guide, I take pride in creating tours tailored to your unique interests. Whether it’s exploring Amsterdam’s vibrant neighborhoods like the Jordaan and the Jewish Cultural Quarter, immersing yourself in Dutch history and culture, or diving into art at the Van Gogh Museum or Rijksmuseum, every detail of your journey is designed around you. We’ll travel at your pace and focus on what excites you most, from architecture (my field of study) to food, discovering nightlife, or uncovering hidden gems that only locals know about. My tours are unscripted and curated specifically for you, ensuring an experience that’s as dynamic and personal as the city itself. My goal is for you to become part of my city, to make you feel at home. To help you understand what makes Amsterdam so special, not just through its sights, but through the rhythm of its streets, its culture, and its people. I’ll guide you through the places I’ve come to love, sharing my passion and enthusiasm for the city every step of the way. Let’s uncover together why this city has captured my heart. Amsterdam is best explored by walking, biking, or—my personal recommendation—on a private boat. Cruising its picturesque canals with a glass of wine in hand and a picnic to enjoy offers breathtaking views and an unparalleled perspective of the city’s beauty. For those wishing to go beyond Amsterdam, I specialize in day trips to historic cities like The Hague, Delft, Leiden, Rotterdam and Haarlem, as well as scenic countryside escapes. Picture windmills, tulip fields in spring, and charming villages—all in the comfort of a private car. MY SERVICE As part of my services, I can assist with reserving museum time slots, organizing dining experiences, and curating a comprehensive itinerary for the duration of your entire stay. Throughout your stay, I will be available via WhatsApp to provide guidance and support whenever needed, ensuring your experience is seamless. Additionally, I can coordinate transportation, including airport transfers and train tickets, and offer hotel and bnb recommendations.
