Private Full-Day Tour by Car: Discover Historic Amersfoort & Naarden

Hello! I'm Ravil. I've called the Netherlands home since 1989 — first Nijmegen, then Amsterdam, where I've lived since 1996. I was born in Moscow, but it's here that showing friends and visitors around slowly turned into my work — and nearly thirty years later, I still enjoy it as much as ever. I specialize in private car tours for people who'd rather have a flexible day than follow a rigid schedule. I've always been especially drawn to the smaller towns and the Dutch countryside — a village café, a quiet canal, an unexpected conversation, or a stop that wasn't in the plan. These often turn out to be the highlights of the day. Some guests come for history, architecture, and art; others for local life, food, or simply to see the country beyond the usual tourist spots. I’ll admit I sometimes get a little carried away when a place I love comes up — so please don’t hesitate to tell me when you’ve seen enough or simply need a coffee. My aim is never to rush you through a checklist, but to help you experience the Netherlands in a way that fits your interests, at the pace that suits you. When I’m not guiding, I travel myself. In the winter months, you’ll regularly find me exploring Southeast Asia, which keeps reminding me what it’s like to be a visitor in a foreign country. A few practical notes: we travel in my modern SUV, comfortable for up to four passengers; for larger groups, I can arrange a minivan. I guide in English, Dutch and Russian, hold an official Amsterdam guiding permit, and am registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce.
