Jan was an amazing local guide who showed me and my friend around Amsterdam. He knew the city inside out! He took us to places like Oude Kerk, Damrak Square, and the Bloemenmarkt, where we saw the famous floating flower market. He was full of interesting facts and stories about Dutch history and culture. It was a great walking tour!
