Fun fact experience!

This ended up being a smaller group tour, which was fine with me! Learning about the area and getting some hot chocolate and a beanie was fun. Loved making stroopwaffle at the end, was a surprising treat!

Dissapointed

I only could participate in part of the walk. I tried to cancel 24 hrs ahead but I didn’t get a call back. My Father took a fall in Friday morning and wasn’t going to be able to walk for 2 hours. I arrived Sat to Dam square for the walk but ended up having to leave to care for my father.

Bringing Amsterdam to life through the centuries!

Guide took so much time with our tiny group. He brought Amsterdam to life through the centuries. Answered all our questions. Thoroughly loved the tour and especially our guide.
