Walking tours in Amsterdam

Let a local lead the way

Between diverse attractions like floating flower markets, the Van Gogh Museum, and the provocative red-light district, there’s almost too much to see on walking tours in Amsterdam. In fact, you could spend weeks moving between its seven diverse districts on your own Amsterdam city walking tours and not even scratch the surface. But if there’s one thing our local hosts know like the back of their hand, it’s Amsterdam – and they’re more than qualified to plan the best walking tours in Amsterdam that give you a perfect blend of top attractions, local haunts, and secret landmarks.

Walking tours in Amsterdam

Get off the beaten track

Everyone knows that the streets of Amsterdam-Centrum are a hive of activity, with locals moving between lively bars and restaurants and tourists gathering at the iconic Dam Square. But taking the road a little less traveled on your private walking tours of Amsterdam will give you a brand-new perspective on the city. Walking tours in Amsterdam with City Unscripted show you places you never dreamed you’d see. Sample Dutch delights at an old cheese shop, visit tiny, tucked-away tasting rooms and uncover an intoxicating nightlife scene far off the tourist trail on our Amsterdam walking tours.

Walking tours in Amsterdam

You’ll also get an unforgettable experience of the unique vibe and spirit of each district when you see it through the eyes of an Amsterdammer. On our private walking tours of Amsterdam, you’ll learn that edgy Amsterdam-Noord is a haven for cool kids and artists, affluent Amsterdam-Zuid is home to high-end boutiques and well-heeled locals, while Amsterdam-Wes is a foodie nirvana.

    Craig arrived on time, actually a little early. He was friendly and personable. He had a wealth of knowledge about Amsterdam and the Netherlands. He definitely customized our tour to meet our needs. We very much enjoyed our time with Craig and would highly recommend him to others.

    Our tour guide, Leese, was excellent. She contacted us ahead of time asking what our interests are and what we wanted to do. This was a private tour. She was friendly, knowledgeable and fun to be with.
