Amsterdam mal von einer andere Seite. Die Tour zeigt Orte in Amsterdam, die man sonst so wahrscheinlich nicht zu sehen bekäme. Dazu kommen die kompetenten und unterhaltsamen Erklärungen des sympathischen Tourleiters Christian. Eine echte Bereicherung eines Amsterdambesuchs.

We loved the private tour option to discover Amsterdam and Michael was a wonderful guide who showed us not only the usual tourist spots, but also places that are not on the normal tourist itinerary, that we loved and that we would not have found on our own. The courtyards and their history were the highlights of this walking tour.
