The private tour guide shared that it would take too long to drive the 10 minutes from the airport to Keukenhof because of traffic, and we had to convince him... read more that we wanted to visit the location we paid for, and he eventually agreed. The guide did not have tickets to Keukenhof and had to drive to his house to get them, which lost us more time, and by the time we made it to Keukenhof we were informed that it did not leave enough time to visit Giethoorn. We got only half the tour we paid for. We were only in Amsterdam for a day, and it was absolutely disappointing to be stuck driving around the city instead of visiting places we wanted to visit.

november 28, 2021With COVID, everything was shutdow pretty early for the Red Light District. But we’d been here and seen all that before.

november 1, 2021We booked a private custom tour we had four days with Peter and 1/2 day with Stan The communication and planning of the tours were super simple Tony and Peter... read more both are great with advice and ideas. Peter is fantastic! So knowledgeable on the past and present of The Netherlandsand so up to date on all topics current - we enjoyed his imformative tours and just our chats while in the car or at lunch. He showed us SO much. Yet seemed to keep us out of the super touristy places and always found a perfect spot for a coffee and/or lunch Definitely request Peter when doing private tours out from Amsterdam. You won’t be disappointed. Super guide - I hated to say goodbye to him. Stan loves Amsterdam. And he is quite funny, too. He navigated us to all kinds of cool places and intrigued us with stories. And he knows where to get the good cookies and also pick the perfect lunch spot. Do the intro Amsterdam tour and ask for Stan!

november 1, 2021While our guide, Stephan, was very nice and knowledgeable we came away from the tour frustrated. First, we had scheduled a 2 pm tour, which the company moved to... read more 3:30 the night before because of another tour - while this in itself was not an issue it shifted our whole schedule for the day. Second, we walked non stop for the entire 2.5 hours without a break. We had no real understanding where we were in the the city and didn't feel we walked the most efficient route. The worst part was when several of our party had to use the washroom, he just kept walking and wanting to tell more stories, we had to GO! Finally, while not an overly prude group - Stephan acted out some of his stories on the street which really turned off a part of our group. The sex museum was recommended as funny by friends, but we found it just to be a lot of pictures of porn, if you are in to that go ahead, otherwise I would skip it.
