Description

Discover Amsterdam with the perfect introduction to the city, combining fascinating history, culture, and entertainment into an unforgettable experience. This 2.5-hour walking tour offers a comprehensive view of the Dutch capital, exploring its streets, canals, and iconic landmarks while hearing stories you won’t find in any guidebook.

Led by an expert local guide, you’ll visit the city’s most important sights and learn how Amsterdam grew from a small muddy village on the banks of the River Amstel to one of Europe’s most influential trading ports during the Dutch Golden Age. You’ll also explore the contrasts that define the city: the liberal history of prostitution, pioneering drug decriminalization, the Nazi occupation, and fascinating anecdotes about everyday life in Amsterdam. Each stop offers a unique perspective, helping you understand why this city is unlike any other.

At the end of the walking tour, your guide will provide all the details to enjoy a 1-hour luxury canal cruise with a bar on board. Relax and take in the magical views of the city from the water, passing historic houses, bridges, and the main canals. The canal cruise starts approximately 30–45 minutes after the walking tour and tickets are sent to you either the day before or on the same day of the tour. Please note that the walking tour voucher cannot be used directly for the canal cruise.

Whether you plan to visit world-class museums, wander through charming cafés, or simply admire the architecture along the canals, this tour gives you the confidence and orientation to make the most of your time in Amsterdam. It’s the perfect introduction to the city for first-time visitors and a fresh perspective for returning travelers.
