What are people saying about Amsterdam

Amsterdam: Private Tour to Keukenhof and Flower-Farm with Ticket

Anita_P, Apr 2026

Great tour

Mo from Remo Drivers was excellent. He was very accommodating with our pick up time from Schipol. He took on a tour of large tulip fields before taking us to the Keukenhof Gardens. It was great he had purchased the tickets ahead of time and this saved waiting in long lines. He gave us an overview of must see areas in the garden. Afterwards, we went to to a working tulip farm, Tulipfarm De Tulperij. We were able to learn about the bulb harvest and how they are stored. The highlight was wandering into the tulip fields. Afterwards we had a great apple pie and coffee snack. I highly recommend Mohamed “Mo” of Remo Drivers.

Keukenhof's Tulips and Windmills Small-Group Tour from Amsterdam

Lawrence_M, Apr 2026

Excellent tour - exceeded expectations

We were in a van with 8 people which was great. Loved the small group. Our driver/guide, Kenny, was fantastic. He got us into the gardens before the big crowds, lead us around the windmills and was very good at avoiding congested areas. The gardens are absolutely over the top - -exceeded expectations. The town of Zaan was quite interesting, but more of a tourist stop. The cheese place was definitely a shopping opportunity. We thoroughly enjoyed the demonstration on making the wooden shoes (clogs). Overall this was an excellent tour and well worth the $$.

Eat, learn, and be merry!

It was a fun, filling, tasty, and amazing time! Gerard was knowledgeable, funny and kept us on our toes! I would definitely recommend this tour especially as a solo traveler because everyone was fun and chill as you should be on vacation/holiday! We tried new things, gained some knowledge, and explored an area without a care in world. A wonderful adventure!

Van Gogh Museum Tour Reserved Entry Semi Private

Grace_C, Apr 2026

Our tour was with...

Our tour was with Victoria. She was full of information and took her time. We strategically went to the Van Gogh main pieces and she explain them throughly. Victoria spoke perfect English and had full of knowledge of Van Gogh’s life and art. This tour group was on a higher price point, but surely worth it with the amount of original work featured. The Museum is very modern and we would’ve been easily turned around on our own. We enjoyed it!

Patrick_L, Mar 2026

Countryside Bike Fun!

Our countryside bike tour, led by our entertaining and considerate guide Ian, was the perfect end to our stay in Amsterdam. Our favorite part was the ride back from the farm through the picturesque fields and charming towns. The tranquility of the countryside was a welcome pause from the bustle of Amsterdam. Wear comfortable clothes as this tour involves more than 15 miles of relaxed riding over mostly level terrain.

Unique Walking Tour With David

Our guide David has created a unique experience for his walking tour. Rather than focus on old buildings and churches, he emphasizes what it is like to live in the Netherlands and what it is like to be Dutch. You might visit the Van Stapele cookie store that has become wildly successful by keeping it simple and doing only one thing, but doing it very well. You may also visit the Het Begijnhof, a historic home for elderly women, exemplifying how the Dutch look after one another. This tour was a truly great experience and David has clearly put a great deal of thought into making it unique and informative.

Our tour was amazing

We had a private tour with Carola at the Van Gogh Museum. Carola was a great guide. Her deep knowledge on Van Gogh's life and his works made our experience at the museum extraordinary. We enjoyed all the painting while she explained the stories behind them. It was wonderful. Thank you Carola!

Eating Amsterdam: Food Tour & Canals Cruise

kathleenrapp1, Sep 2025

Amazing!!!

Relaxing stroll through one of the prettiest neighborhoods in Amsterdam with tastings of regional delicacies at local spots. An incredible way to spend the afternoon in Amsterdam, especially if you are looking for something chill to do that is not in the typical “touristy” area. Gerard l our guide was AMAZING. A lifelong-local, Gerard really added to the experience by adding personal anecdotes and taking time to answer questions throughout. Be sure to dress for the weather and wear good walking shoes.

Heidi_S, Sep 2025

Great choice!

They took us to two quaint villages, one was on the water. Both were beautiful!!! So glad I got out of the city, saw the villages and learned about traditions, and saw how things were made. I wish we had more time everywhere because we didn’t want to leave. Great choice for a few hours if you are in Amsterdam.

Best Tour Guide Ever

Victor/Valter or w.e his name is (and his awesome partner) are simply the best! Not only did they make the cruise the most fun and memorable experience, but they made every moment feel special. And honestly… Victor might just be the hottest guy alive. Charming, knowledgeable, and hilarious, can’t ask for a better guide or a better team. 10/10
