Reviews of Our Amsterdam Experiences

We really enjoyed spending time with Wendy. Wendy is very knowledgeable about the Amsterdam history and pointed out many historical places and events. The beer, of course was delicious! She went out of her way to make our beer tour the best! Thank you Wendy...

Amazing personalized food tour we have ever experienced ! Alan was beyond helpful and knowledgeable, accommodating each of our requests and likes. Alan was energetic and engaging the entire tour by asking thoughtful and sincere questions of each of my family members. Not only did Alan go out of his way to give us the best experience, he made sure to give suggestions for the rest of visit in Amsterdam. We were touring with our adult college kids. Alan made sure to share fun ideas, shopping, and food to entertain their interest also. Alan was extremely flexible and immediately adjusted to our likes and dislikes, even introducing my daughter to the best vintage clothing store she ever shopped in. Alan went above and beyond by gifting my son an Amsterdam T-shirt also. Alan was courteous in contacting me the day before in preparing and confirming our meeting point. Alan is a true professional and top notch tour guide!

Sara was a fantastic guide. She took the time to explain the sites and history of Milan very well. Most of all she made us feel welcome in her city. It was a pleasure to have a tour that wasn't "run of the mill". We'd certainly recommend this tour.

We had just a few hours to see Hong Kong before boarding our next flight. After booking the experience our guide contacted us via email to discuss the itinerary. Our intelligent guide, Alfred, met us inside the terminal next to the luggage storage area. He helped us store our luggage and then we boarded the express train to the City. Since we only had a few hours, he moved quickly so we could see as much as possible. In addition to the main sites such as the Peak, he took us to places we never would have seen on our own (the police station museum, and some fascinating street art, to name two examples). He spoke English well and was very knowledgeable about his native city. Finally, he recommended a high quality dim sum restaurant so we could have a fine meal before heading back to the airport.

Bibi was kind, funny, and helped us maximize our short time in Milan! Her restaurant recommendation was fantastic!
