Hi, I’m Daan! I am Dutch and I’ve lived in Amsterdam for many years after a life abroad (Mexico, Pakistan, Brazil etc). I love sharing the city’s vibrant contrasts—from world-famous museums to the buzz of the Red Light District, and then drifting along the canals on a boat with lunch or dinner to take it all in. I’m always curious and love walking through neighborhoods like De Pijp, the Jordaan, Oud-Zuid, and around Vondelpark, where you’ll also find the Van Gogh and Rijksmuseum. Whether I’m exploring with friends, visiting spots I’ve shown my daughters, or just following my feet to an authentic local (spicy food) restaurant, I’m always discovering something new. I know the city and its people inside out—and I’d love to show you the Amsterdam I know and love!
Dan was a great tour guide. He first messaged us to ask what our interests were. He is very knowledgeable and added interesting facts at each stop.Three hours was a perfect amount of time.

We travel extensively and do tours most of the time. Daan’s communication from the time we booked until after our tour was exceptional. He was knowledgeable and passionate.

Daan was truly awesome. I traveled with my family and a 10 month old kid with a baby stroller. Daan was able to make us feel welcomed and embraced our baby. He willingly volunteered to look after him while we would need to visit the restroom. The tour was amazing, my wife and I enjoyed the beautiful Amsterdam weather, historic places and landmarks. Daan was friendly and accommodating in helping us understand the history of the great nation. He was passionate about his country and ultimately transferred the excitement to us. This is a must have experience when you visit Netherlands. Best wishes.
