Fantastic, over the top experience, tasting the food highlights of Amsterdam! Roman is a gifted tour guide, protecting all of his tourists, captivating us with the history of the city, and taking us to the best places to try the food foods that Amsterdam is known for-all with a genuine kindness and great sense of humor. No one remembers his names like Roman.! it will definitely be a highlight of your trip! It was absolutely a highlight of ours.

We enjoyed the ride which was well organises and offered good commentary. Pizza was good as well and the staff provided drinks (wine, beer, etc) all the time through the tour.

Information about the red light district was great. Our guide Marian Williams responded very well to all of our questions and answered them all. We would have liked to have been able to take a look behind the scenes (e.g. into a sex workers' room), since the tour also has the title: "Behind closed curtains"

By requiring me to go to the office to change my ticket for the canal tour, with both activities taking place on the same day (museum and canal tour), I was unable to do both activities on the same day, so I only had time to visit the museum and missed the canal tour. They should give you a direct ticket like the museum ticket so you can do your canal tour activity.

The meeting place was easy to find. We were a small group which enabled us to stay together easily and I was able to hear all the information clearly. David our guide was informative engaging and when appropriate amusing in his delivery of the history and evolution of the area. The beer was also nice but potent for a pensioner. A couple of hours well spent.

We had booked a small group tour (minimum two, max eight persons). Our guide, Faustina, was absolutely fantastic with her knowledge, and forthright access to the paintings - there was nothing about Vincent that she didn’t know. And to have get our group close and unobstructed access/viewing was really great!!! Her through life story and influences were very succinctly provided.
