"Willem made sure to show me the local\nhaunts he knew about and showed me items I wanted to see: local markets, parks, and neighborhoods. He shared tidbits about Amsterdam - skinny bridge where Diamonds are Forever movie/James Bond/ 1971 was filmed, old Jewish quarter where the poor souls were rounded up to be sent to concentrarion camps, and lighter experiences like fries with truffle msyo. Yum. A very pleasant experence. \nI highly recommend Willem. "

"Sebastian was a great fun guide and showed us how Amsterdam still recuperates land, as it did since its beginnings. We had great stops in most modern quarters, Westerpark, Jordaan, Dam and Redlight district and learnt about architecture and how the city evolved. Sebastian was generous with time and a great storyteller. Very recommendable."

Fantastic!
"Arun was great in taking time to understand what we needed. He was patient and took us round explaining the Dutch history and architecture, the canals and the history between each, he took time to take us to picturesque places where we got amazing shots. \n\nIt is worth paying a guide so as to get a local's version of Amsterdam, and recommendations of other things to do and places to eat. His recommendations were great. I highly recommend him!"
