Anne Frank House in VR + her Amsterdam Life

11 reviews

No tickets to the Anne Frank House? Enjoy an even richer experience in the exclusive Virtual Reality tour of the Anne Frank House! To make Anne’s story come full-circle, we will also explore her life before she went into hiding.
We start in a local cafe to get to know each other. You'll get a great first-hand look and feel of where Anne was in hiding in Virtual Reality. Unlike the over-crowded museum you have the house all to yourself with us. We even provide exclusive access to the secret attic. With the sounds of planes flying over, you feel as if you were there.
After the VR experience, we go outside. We pass by her old home, her playground, the local synagogue, and the elementary school where she laid the foundation for her iconic writing. This tour really makes Anne Frank come to life. Find out the true life of this young girl who went into history as one of the greatest social activists of the world.

Cruise the Canals & Taste Dutch food

We will wander through narrow alleyways and across beautiful canals of this friendly and charming area. The best part? This neighborhood is one of a kind and away from the chaos and the crowds of the city center. Your local guide will not only share stories about the history and architecture, but you will also get to taste some delicious, authentic food. Have you ever tasted grandma’s apple pie in a 350 year old cafe? Tried to eat herring the Dutch way? Or tasted the best Gouda Cheese? We will take you behind the scenes into the true history of the Jordaan, where you will meet passionate shop owners and learn about the incredible history of this area.
After this we will board a canal cruise from our friends of Flagship. We 'll cruise over the canals and see the exquisite canal houses, tiny drawbridges, and other historical buildings. Don't wait. Sign up to walk, learn, taste and cruise with us!
