    Jan, customized our walk based on our interests and was extremely well versed in the history and architecture of Amsterdam/Netherlands . Greatly appreciated were recommendations of sites and other interests to do in our own time. Definitely worth having a well informed and personable guide, will definitely recommend to others.

    I only had a couple of days to explore a whole city, so a personalised tour was exactly the right answer. I had a great time getting to know the guide and getting a feel for Amsterdam, and we went places I'd never have found on my own. 5/5 - would recommend, one of the best value for money things I've ever tried.

    It was downpouring the day of our tour. We half expected it to get cancelled... but Lawrence showed up ready to conquer the day! We ran from covered awning to covered awning while he packed in as much information about our surroundings as possible. Our tour was a great mix of popular sights and local hidden gems. Lawrence's passion for history was infectious, he explained even tiny details in a way that captivated our attention despite the weather! We walked A LOT but Lawrence did check in with us often about how we were doing so the pace could've definitely been adjusted if we weren't keeping up! I wish we had Lawrence to guide us through every city we travelled to!
