Itinerary:

This Amsterdam walking tour gives you a real taste of the city’s heritage and lifestyle all in the company of an expert local guide. Begin at the Amsterdam Central Station and wand through the Jordaan neighbourhood, once a blue collar area and now a funky region filled with bars, restaurants and galleries.

 

Next is a real Amsterdam travel experience you wont find elsewhere! Take time out to visit a house boat and get a taste of life on the canals before heading to the colourful flower market.

 

Step back in time at the Begijnhof. Once a convent, the Begijnhof has a peaceful courtyard surrounded by chapels and 15th century buildings, and is a memorable Amsterdam trip. Wander through the 16th century City Guard gallery to see portraits of famous Dutch citizens and Amsterdam tours

 

Then see the giant wooden statue of Goliath at the Amsterdam Historical Museum. Our Amsterdam tour then wanders through the city’s historical centre, known as the Dam Square, before heading to the city’s infamous red light district. Finish at the eclectic Waterlooplein flea market. Be sure to explore the stalls and pick up a unique memento or two as we finish up your unforgettable Amsterdam walking tour.

Your trip:

This trip is offered on a "join-in" basis. Maximum group size is 12

Tipping:

If you are happy with the services provided by your local guides and drivers a tip - though not compulsory - is appropriate. While it may not be customary to you, it is of great significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels, inspires excellent service, and is an entrenched feature of the tourism industry across many Intrepid Urban Adventures destinations. Please consider this when budgeting for your extra expenses on this tour
