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.

Overview of your Nijmegen tour
Let me take you on a full-day private tour to explore Nijmegen — the oldest city in the Netherlands — and its scenic surroundings. Offered from mid-May to mid-October, this tour is ideal for cruise guests or anyone curious to explore beyond the typical highlights. We’ll begin with a guided walk through the city center, where medieval streets, historic landmarks, and local stories come together. After time for lunch, we’ll continue in my comfortable, air-conditioned car to a destination of your choice. In the afternoon, you can visit the Netherlands Open Air Museum, explore WWII history in Groesbeek, enjoy a scenic drive through the Ooijpolder, or discover charming villages and small towns nearby.
