Great custom tour delivered by Dina. She listed to our wants and needs and did not disappoint! She arranged a private boat tour on a beautiful well equipped canal boat with wine and snacks. No better way to see the city while being totally relaxed.

My family which included my wife, 22 year old son, 20 year old daughter and myself toured with Dina for two days in Mid March 2026. The first tour was a half day tour of Amsterdam including a private canal ride. Dina did an excellent job of showing us all around Amsterdam and making sure we all got to see and experience all the things in Amsterdam that we were looking for. Her knowledge of the city was immense and she knew places to stop in all the different neighborhoods. Dina wanted to make sure you got a full experience of Amsterdam and would move at the pace that fit your needs, she was never in a rush. The private canal ride at the end of the tour a very nice finishing touch to our tour. It was a pleasure touring with Dina as she is so personable. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to get a great feel of the city of Amsterdam.

Dina gave us the perfect introduction to Amsterdam and more. She showed us very interesting highlights, explained lots of interesting information about Amsterdam, arranged a great canal cruise, and was so responsive and flexible about what we wanted to do, where to shop, and what to eat!! She knows Amsterdam so well and is very pleasant, nice, interesting, and humorous. Very sensitive to our interests and tastes, and with great recommendations and advice.

We had a wonderful tour with Dina! We had nightmare flight issues that delayed us multiple times and Dina always responded quickly and kindly and went over and beyond fitting in a tour for us. Once on the tour, Dina was informative and fun and made sure we had a comprehensive view of this beautiful city. Also, the canal tour she booked for us was just perfect! She turned an exhausting journey into a delightful start to our family vacation and we are so thankful for her.
