Hello, I'm Jan. Welcome to Amsterdam and The Netherlands! I've graduated in public administration at Leiden University. I have a big passion for history since I was a teenager and developed a strong interest in European painting and it's history in the last 15 years. I've been doing tours in and around Amsterdam for over 13 years. After all these years I still discover new things in Amsterdam and find out new things about it's history, which makes it such a great place. I provide tours of Amsterdam, it's surroundings (flower fields in April, countryside, windmills, Brussels). I do tours on foot, on ordinary bikes, on my rickshaw, by minivan and if preferred so in combinations of walking and by boat or minivan. Amsterdam is great and unique. Besides the things most people associate with it, there is a lot else you might not have noticed before or read about. Of course I will customize tours. So if you have specific interests or you would like to combine elements of several tours please let me know and I will make a customized proposal. I'm a traveler myself. I have been traveling to the USA, India, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Thailand, Indonesia, Australia, Mexico, Egypt, Russia, China and a lot of places in Europe. I'm always curious to discover new places and meet people from all over the world, which is a great advantage of my work. I hope you will enjoy our great, unique city! - 13 years experience with doing tours in and around Amsterdam, on foot, by bike, by rickshaw and by minivan. - I'm graduated in public administration at Leiden University - Licensed to do tours in the Red Light District - I can not provide tours of Anne Frank House, or provide tickets for it. - Taking pictures of women in the red light district is strictly prohibited

Overview of your Amsterdam tour

With this tour, we combine visiting the largest flowerfields-area north of Amsterdam with visiting the charming island of Texel and taking a boat trip on the Tidal 'Waddenzee' to see the seals resting on sandbanks. The Netherlands is crowded but here you wouldn't say so! The island of Texel itself offers some of the most beautiful landscapes of The Netherlands. There are small villages with wooden houses, a characteristic hilly area which is very uncommon for The Netherlands, lots of sheep and some of the nicest nature-reserves in The Netherlands. We will get to see the large flowerfields north of Amsterdam as well. This is a great trip. Important to notice; we have to leave in time (not later than 9:30). We will return in Amsterdam around 21:30. A long but great day!
