Amsterdam Walking Tour with Frank D!

I booked a semi-private Amsterdam city walking tour with Frank D, and once again, Babylon Tours delivered an exceptional experience. Frank was incredibly knowledgeable, and we spent 3.5 hours exploring Amsterdam while he shared so many interesting insights I would have never discovered on my own. This is probably my sixth tour with Babylon across London, France, Italy, and now the Netherlands, and they continue to impress every time. Highly recommend!

Fun walking tour of historic Amsterdam

We met with our guide, Clare, as instructed. There were only 5 of us which made it easy to listen and to chat. Clare tailored the walk to what everyone wanted and made it so interesting. It was a fun afternoon and we would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting ..... to get to know the city and its history a bit before you go off and explore yourself. Thankyou Clare.

Moving experience

Really excellent tour from Fleur. She helped bring the exhibits to life and I was very moved by the devotion to restoring The Night Watch by Rembrandt including that we could see the conservators in situ whilst we viewed the art. I had a beautiful emotional tearful moment at that. Thanks Fleur for your guiding and the time and attention you gave to us and the exhibits. Andrew
