What are people saying about Amsterdam

Wendaline_V, Jul 2026

It’s so much more than just the delicious food!

The Amsterdam food tour was a lot more interesting than I expected! Not only did we sample 5 different regional favorites, the foods tied into the local and national history and took us through some of the most scenic streets of old Amsterdam. Our guide Andy was extraordinary- inviting, engaging and very knowledgeable!

Amsterdam Cheese, Windmill & Countryside Bike Tour /E-bike Option

Virginia_M, Jul 2026

One of the best tours we have ever done

One of the best tours we have ever done - the sun shone, the countryside was beautiful, our guide Sam was knowledgeable and we just loved cycling through the countryside and seeing the 1 windmill - we had expected windmills... but the one we saw was very beautiful.

Erin_R, Jun 2026

This was a great tour- I...

This was a great tour- I liked that we didn’t go to too busy of tourist spots- we went to a local cafe for our half way break. We biked through picturesque farmlands and learned a lot of about the dams and terrain. Would definitely encourage friends to go. William was a great guide. Thank you!

Van Gogh Museum Amsterdam Exclusive Tour w/ Reserved Entry

Anna N - Superb art historian and guide

Anna N gave us the best art history tour ever. She was so knowledgeable about van Gogh his motivation about his paintings, the history of the paintings and the time period. She has a wonderful insight into van Gogh state of mind for his for works. Highly recommend you book with her.

Jordaan Food Tour with Dutch Tastings in Amsterdam

Christine_M, May 2026

Awesome food tour

We spent an informative, fun-filled afternoon with Mickey, as she guided us through some terrific, family-owned shops and cafes. We sampled Dutch apple pie and a cappuccino, four types of Gouda from a local farm, accompanied by a Texel skuumkoppe beer, kapsalon (fries, cheese, donair meat, salad and dressing), and then finished up with bitterballen and genever.

Amsterdam Highlights Bike or E-Bike Tour

Michelle_K, May 2026

The best way to see Amsterdam

Fantastic tour would highly recommend. Our guide Rissa was excellent. Great knowledge, enthusiasm and just the right amount of health and safety to make sure our group was confident in the busy bike lanes of Amsterdam. If you are debating if the extra cost for e-bikes is worth it I would say go for it. They were a lot of fun and our 2 teenagers love the added tech as part of the overall experience. 10/10

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.

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

Alba_R, May 2026

Very enjoyable...

Very enjoyable experience, the time in the gardens was just perfect, not too long, not too short. Good time to wander around and have lunch there. The visit to the windmills was also very unique experience with plenty of time to enjoy the different shops, learn the history of the place and take some wonderful photos!

Amsterdam: Zaanse Schans, "Lego-houses" and Volendam Tour

Dennis_G, May 2026

Trip is just as advertised. Very different and very enjoyable experiences! Lovely! Did not disappoint!

We have never had a bad experience with Viator/Get Your Guide. They are always on time, right where they say they will meet you (but be sure ahead of time that you know where that is!), and on schedule for return trip. Their guides have always been very knowledgeable and entertaining. We highly recommend them! The 3 places we went on this tour were just as advertised. We enjoyed the cheese making lesson and really loved Volendam, fishing village. Be sure to get a plate of whatever seafood you choose (can mix & match—I got a mix of fried shrimp and fried fish bites) at the seafood truck on the harbor promenade. Take some time to stroll along the water.

Nazi WWII Concentration Camp Small Group Tour from Amsterdam

Anonymous, Oct 2025

Book This Now

Eva's storytelling brought the past to life, painting a vivid picture of historical events against the backdrop of the locations themselves. Her narratives focused on individual stories of choice, bravery, and courage, highlighting the accounts of people who chose to resist rather than be swept away by the prevailing current of events. The experience was deeply enhanced by the locations, which offered not only visual context but also a tangible connection to the past. Eva intimately shared her own family's personal journey, detailing their preparation for survival, the challenges of hiding, and their life after the war. This personal connection transformed the historical account from a simple story into a deeply moving and relatable human experience. The tour also provided a powerful moment of reflection, showing what the one's destiny could have been if they hadn't made certain choices, while also paying solemn respects to those who were not as fortunate in their circumstances or fate. What began as a simple online booking evolved into a pivotal moment of reflection on the past and present, not just as an individual but also for our entire small group. (Thank you Peter, Sharon, and Eva.) This was a truly unforgettable experience, and one that will never be forgotten.

Amsterdam: Red Light District Bar Crawl

Gabriela_T, Sep 2025

We had such a great...

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.
