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

In this 4, 5 hours long tour we take you to the world-famous flowerfields and show you scenic sights in the historic center of Amsterdam. You will see large patches of colourfull flowerfields. There are 4 main species of flowers grown at the flower (bulb) fields: crocus, hyacinth, daffodils and tulips. Tulips are most colourfull, hyacinths have a great scent. The flowers are not to be sold but are topped, and their bulbs are cultivated to be harvested and sold later in the year. There is the option to visit the Keukenhof Flower-Exhibition. In Amsterdam, we will pass by many scenic views of the canals and 17th and 18th-century characteristic monuments. If your mobility allows I will take you shortly out of the minivan, so you will experience the sights more intensely Of course, I will explain a lot about the history and present of Amsterdam. Of course, I will try to answer all the questions you have and customize the tour according to specific interests you have as long as time allows.
We will drive to the flowerbulb growing area west of Amsterdam. We will tour there for 1, 5 to 2 hours. After our tour in the flowerfields we will head back to Amsterdam and have a tour of the historic center: - Picturesque canal views - The Museum Square - The Seven Bridges - Amstel River - Skinny bridge - WesterChurchTower - Anne Frankhuis - Holocaust Memorial - Rembrandt square - Nieuwmarkt. In case your walking abilities allow I will take you out of the minivan and you will experience everything in a different way. Note: Please note that Tour is available only in April.
