We took the Sandeman's free walking tour just a couple hours after arriving in Amsterdam. Geert was fun and informative! What a great way to get oriented to the city! Our group of 6 joined about 12 more people at Dam Square. This is indeed the best deal in Amsterdam! More

Amazing, easy and fun. Tour guides are young but they are experts of the city, very professional and very interesting. More

We took this 3 hour tour which was guided by Dave. There were about 12 of us in the group, varied in ages and countries of origin, but all speaking English. The tours meet up either in front of the tourist office at the train station, or at Dam Square and then are sorted into guides and languages. I'm glad... More

I did two of the tours, free tour with Angel and RLD with Mark. Both guides were quite different in style and excellent. Angel introduced himself briefly and then got the group to say where they all came from which made you realise what a diversity of people were there. He gave clear information on how the tour would be... More

My guide, GED showed my the nooks and crannies of the city! He's funny, interesting and knowledgable! Amsterdam as so much more to offer the traveler then just the coffee shops and the red light district. Don't miss him when you're in town! More

We took the tour, led by Tom. VERY GOOD! It was a great intro to the city, and our guide was funny and really knew the history of the city. This is a must for anyone new to the city. More

The free walk was during the day. I did that and also the night tour. I do not particularly like when the guide thinks s/he is a stand up comic, but that is just me. The night tour was just an overview of the red light district. There was no depth to the tours and for a quick overview it... More

We did this tour as soon as we arrived in Amsterdam and were so glad we did. The tour lasted about 3/4 hours but was so interesting and informative that the time went too quickly. Our guide Kendra (sorry if I've spelt it wrongly) was funny, friendly, personable and extremely knowledgeable. She answered any questions with ease and showed us... More

I took two tours and they were both great, I had Dave for one and the girl from Alaska (sorry) for the other. Both guides were funny, informative and I had a great time. More
