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

AMAZING! We had such a wonderful experience at the Keukenhof gardens. We visited towards the end of the flower season, but there were still plenty of flowers. So well maintained and beautiful. Laura was an amazing tour guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. She took great care of us before, during, and after the tour. This was the highlight of our 2-week trip to Europe! Highly recommended!
We had a great tour. Enjoyed being with Laura. Would definitely book another tour with Laura.
Maria took my wife and I on a marvelous tour of the Keukenhof park. She knows the park and the flowers in it in incredible detail. She was able to navigate so that we could see everything in a very efficient manner. My wife is a gardener and greatly appreciated Maria's comments. The garden is spectacular, so much so that we would be quite happy to see it again in the future. If we ever get to do that, we will certainly try to have Maria as our guide.
The guide, Maria Maramenou, was outstanding. She was very engaging and extraordinarily knowledgeable. I enjoyed the time spent with her. Given the opportunity I would hire her again. Please know that this is Brian Young. My wife and are traveling with the Millers. My wife agrees with me!!! Thank you so very much.
We had such a lovely day with Laura (Maria)! She’s a wonderful guide, warm and friendly, with a perfect balance of sharing her vast knowledge and information and storytelling. And also allowing for quiet moments to just take it all in. Of course, she was prompt, helpful, with perfect English, but we truly felt we made a friend. She really made sure we got everything we wanted out of the tour—she even made the sun come out! Always volunteering to take our photos. Because she’s so well traveled, we were able to connect a lot of dots. Her driver was also lovely, and they were more than happy to stop along the way so we could see the tulips in the fields—extraordinary! The car was comfortable and immaculate as well…above and beyond what was promised. We highly recommend her. What a pleasure!
Our tour guide was tremendous. Responsed quickly to all messages prior to the tour, was very knowledgeable about many many things and was a pleasure to converse with. We highly recommend her. She made our short visit exceptional.
