All About Amsterdam: Free City Tour
♡ Save


Join our amazing tour of Amsterdam, the vibrant and crazy city of freedom. Have you felt lost until now? Discover all the secrets and wonders that await you. Do not miss it! Everything will make sense.
Are you in a rush and only have time for a short visit? Or this is your first time, and you want to know where you are? Maybe you don’t want to miss the must-see places, or you have plenty of time in Amsterdam and want to go through the main attractions? Well, let's know all about Amsterdam in a nutshell.
We go back in time and explore how the city has changed in the past 750 years. On this tour, we start with the beginning, exploring the medieval heritage of Amsterdam. We visit the monuments and the signs of the past, such as the oldest monuments and hidden churches. We explore how it became a busy little town.
We walk by unique landmarks that you would not recognize on your own, and of course, we will see the most important monuments of the city. The route is not only in the very old town but also in the UNESCO World Heritage Canal district, the living scene of the richest times, the Golden Age. I know history is in the past, so the present will also be part of this tour. You can get to know more about the coffee shops and the Red-Light District, for example, as well as the challenges of modern times, and the life of the local people in Amsterdam.
