Denis was great. We found him through Rick Steves book. Denis was very responsive. He scheduled a zoom meeting with us to discuss what we were looking for in our trip. He had no problem creating an itinerary for us, purchasing our tickets and assisting with everything. Denis provided full service and attend to our every need. He was extremely knowledgeable and we could feel how much he loved his city, and his guests. If you want a guide during a visit to Amsterdam, use Denis!

Dennis took us on a tour of a clog factory and cheese factory outside of Amsterdam near the city of de rijp. In addition he took us to windmills to see. We were able to go inside the windmill to see how it was set up when it was in use. Dennis was very knowledgeable and helpful. He knows so much about Amsterdam and the surrounding areas. He did a wonderful job on the tour. He knew the places to go to where there would be the least crowds. He also knew the best place to go to eat. We spend an enjoyable day with him, and if we get back to Amsterdam, we will definitely use him again.

Dennis is a must for your trip to Amsterdam (and surrounding cities). We booked him for a day in Amsterdam including a private boat tour to end the day. We also booked two day trips outside of the city. Unfortunately, one was canceled due to severe weather conditions. The one we took was to Leiden, which was well worth the time. Dennis is very personable and knowledgeable about many areas especially history, architecture, and things to do. We could not have been happier about the time and money we spent with him. He has ideas of what to do but is also very happy to accommodate your personal interests as well. In addition to the time you are with him, he will also recommend restaurants and other places to go and things to see. Contact him early. He'll "meet" you on zoom and plan your adventure.

Dennis did a great job showing us around his city. It was like having a friend who knew the city inside and out and could tell you everything about it. It was the highlight of our vacation.

Booking Dennis should be your first priority. Don't hesitate as he books up fast! My 18 year old daughter, myself and my mother-in-law traveled to Amsterdam mid June 2023. We booked Dennis for 2 days, and it was the best decision we could have ever made. Dennis made our time together interesting and fun. With three generations I’m sure it wasn’t an easy task. Dennis guided us all over the city. Walking was our main mode of transportation, but we did ride both the tram and ferry. We splurged on the private boat tour, and highly recommend it. It was absolutely worth what it cost. Dennis is engaging, interesting and fun. He is also professional and detail oriented. For example Dennis would remove his sunglasses and put on his glasses when we stopped to chat. Such a minor detail but one I so appreciate. I used Wise and paid in full (a few months) before our tour. This is a very easy process. While paying a stranger (a large sum of money) is a little nerve racking, rest assured you have nothing to worry about paying ahead of time. Thank you Dennis for our time together, we have such wonderful memories!
