Much more than the must-sees

Many of the most amazing experiences in Amsterdam are ones your guidebook doesn’t even know about. You could easily spend a day moving between the top tourist attractions, but only with private tour guides in Amsterdam can you easily uncover the lesser-known landmarks only locals know about. Our Amsterdam private tour guides know exactly where to go for the best food, the most unique entertainment, and the secret spots down quiet backstreets no traveler could find alone. You won’t be limited to the tourist traps – local tour guides in Amsterdam will give you a true feel for the city.

Perfect tour of the city!

Alan was a fantastic tour guide for my mother and I. A perfect balance of seeing the sites mixed with the spontaneity of going off the beaten path a bit made for a great half day. Personable and knowledgeable, I would recommend Alan for your custom tour of Amsterdam.

Anna was a fantastic guide. She was very concerned about our needs and what we expected out of the tour! We saw “touristy sights” as well as those off the beaten path.. She helped us plan other sights we wanted to see and gave great insights about Amsterdam and her experiences.
