Very impressive tour with our guide Stan. His knowledge about the Jewish history and Anne Frank is truly impressive. He was also very easy to talk with and very accommodating. One of the best tours we have ever taken. We highly recommend Stan as your guide.

Our guide did a great job!

I enjoyed the tour and seeing the quiet non touristy neighborhood- that was a refreshing change. However, there isn’t a ton to see in this area. I probably would have preferred a tour in central Amsterdam to get more out of it.

I really liked our tour guide Saskia. She gave us another tour because the one we signed up for was misleading. We thought we were getting a tour of Anna Frank House and that neighbourhood (this is should be much more clear on the website). Our guide adapted very well to what we wanted and she was very helpful in getting us tickets for the Anne Frank House.
