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

Walking and Private canal tour
Overview of your Amsterdam tour
Giethoorn is one of the Netherlands’ most enchanting villages — a peaceful, storybook destination nestled within a beautiful national park. Until the 1950s, the village could only be reached by water. Today, its charming canals are connected by 176 small bridges and surrounded by lakes, reed fields, cycling paths, and centuries-old thatched cottages with beautifully kept gardens. I will guide you through this extraordinary part of the Netherlands and share the fascinating story behind its unique, man-made waterways and way of life. To fully experience Giethoorn, we will enjoy a private cruise on an open boat through the quiet canals and scenic landscapes. Transportation is provided by private minivan with a professional driver, while the canal cruise takes place aboard our own private sloop with skipper for a relaxed and exclusive experience.
