Cần Quan Tâm
Beurs van Berlage
In front of the stock- and commodities exchange buildings, built where the Amtel river used to flow, we discuss the origins of Amsterdam and how water and finance influenced the city.
Damrak
In the old harbor, we discuss the origins of the Red Light District, the role of the Church, and how the holy and the profane have found surprising ways to work and profit from each other over time & the state of prostitution in the 20th and 21st Century: how and why prostitution became a legal profession, how the neighbourhood has changed over time and the current challenges facing the most infamous neighbourhood of Amsterdam.

5.00David was our guide and he was fantastic, witty, funny and provided so much interesting facts and history about Amsterdam we never knew. Very well worth booking. Recommend doing this tour when you first arrive so historic sights are more meaningful. Thank you David!

5.00Fun and interesting. Carl, our guide, was a born and bred Amsterdammer who expertly wove personal anecdotes into his entertaining whistle-stop introduction to this lovely city's history. Be warned: he is tall and walks you around deceptively fast, but it didn't mar the experience for me, and I'm unfit. I found myself googling many of the interesting things he'd mentioned after the tour had finished. The meeting point - a statue of a bull - is reassuringly specific and unmissable. I liked the communication beforehand, via email, with very clear directions, from Viator who I had booked through. I liked the fairly small group size: there were only 13 of us. No idea what the maximum is. Maybe I was just lucky. My only slight criticism was that I didn't know how much to tip Carl at the end, on top of the booking fee paid online. I would have preferred a set ticket price so that everyone knew exactly where they stood.
A fab intro to the city

5.00Carl was a great, informative guide. He was knowledgeable and had a fun sense of humor. We were a small group so he asked us if we wanted to see anything specific. He answered all our questions and was clearly knowledgeable.
Interesting and hilarious walking tour.
