Hey there! I'm Wendy, your friendly host in Amsterdam! Café-hopping is my ultimate joy. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingling with newfound friends is a part of Amsterdam's lifestyle that I adore. Venturing into art galleries and museums, I'm transported to worlds created by brilliant minds. Whether in the cozy corners of Jordaan or amidst the buzz of the City Centre, I've unraveled the secrets of these neighborhoods. What truly sets my heart aflutter is unearthing those hidden gems. I've made it my mission to uncover the spots that don't make it to the travel brochures—the local eateries where "lekker" takes on a whole new meaning. Join me on this exhilarating journey through Amsterdam's soul. Let's embrace the canal-draped vistas, the tapestry of lifestyles, and the flavors that dance on our taste buds. See you soon!

My reviews
-
The pace was perfect, the guide (Wendy’s) knowledge and the flexibility, we had time to view an art museum.

Wendy was an excellent tour guide to show us around different areas of Amsterdam. She customized our tour because one of us had mobility challenges and also customized it towards our specific interests around history and culture. There was so much we learned that we would not have known otherwise -- it was very enjoyable!

Wendy was a wonderful guide and curated a lovely tour of the city. By the end of our tour, we considered her our new friend in Amsterdam. She is wonderful at her job and makes the tour fun and enjoyable! We highly recommend her!!
