Peter_G, Jun 2026

Ebike to the countryside

22 km bike ride on an e-bike. Very easy, though getting use to Amsterdam traffic of bikes, people, and cars is a bit challenging at first. Very nice once we were out of downtown. Not really a windmill tour... Only one, and it's a replica on top of a brewery. Lovely countryside.

Guide Anita Gosschalk Liemburg is excellent!

It lasted just the right amount of time. I wanted to learn more about Van Gough, but did not want a PhD in him. Anita Gosschalk Liemburg, our guide did a wonderful presentation with just enough information. She has extensive experience working for the museum before becoming a guide.

A lovely morning at Kuekenhof Gardens. Well organised from picking up the tickets at the Tours and Tickets in Amsterdam Station and transfer by coach from just ouside the station to the Gardens.

We had such a great experience on this bar crawl! It was super interactive, and you were actually able to get to know people within your group because the hosts would initiate conversations or games amongst the group. This is great for a solo traveller who wants to make friends or even groups of people who want to make more friends. Andre, Tay, and Soraya were amazing hosts! Would highly recommend this bar crawl if you’re ever in Amsterdam.

Great tour - worth the money!

Lucas was our skipper and he was excellent!! He gave us great insight into the city & its history. He was really friendly & easy to chat with, but also gave us privacy to take in the sights & talk amongst ourselves. The boat was very clean and Lucas was a great driver, we felt very safe the entire time! Refreshments on board (Cava & Beer) were great. Boat location was easy to find.

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.
