We had a wonderful time with Maria! She was a fun and informative guide who took us to all the central spots, but somehow via charming, calm, scenic routes that did not feel very touristy. It was a nice mix of history and current events going on in the city. She was flexible, friendly and fun - highly recommend!

Itinerary
We will start our walking tour at the Amsterdam Centraal Station - one of the most fabolous buildings in this city.
Strolling along the canals, we will get to former waterfront district of Amsterdam, famous for its old atmosphere and cozy brown bars of 17th century, which are very much loved by locals. Would you like to try some Dutch beer and find out, where you could pay for it with monkeys back in the Golden Age time? Then let's make a little stop in one of those bars!
We will definitely pay special attention to Chinatown
We will find hiding in the gateway of the old univercity.
We would love to show you humpback bridges, hidden chapels and cozy courtyards.
It is interesting to see Dam Square and the Royal palace, but they will never give you a complete image of how this city actually lives.

Without any hesitation, we recommend taking a guided walking tour around Amsterdam centre with Anna. We considered joining a group tour but decided to do this with just the two of us. Though more expensive, of course, ours was a short visit to the city and doing it this way we felt we’d get much more out of the tour, and so it proved to be. We loved it. Anna’s deep knowledge of Amsterdam’s history was brought alive by a journey through time focussing on key figures who were instrumental in the development of the city, both economically and architecturally. Besides learning so much, we also visited places we were unlikely to find (or even find out about) without her help. Thank you Anna, you were a pleasure to be with!
the excursion was interesting, sincere, not banal. a lot of useful information, Alexander did a great job! Thank you so much
Amsterdam is full of stories. Happy, sad, spooky, funny, scary, wonderful, ironic. Some are true, many aren’t. And guides from Snurk know them all ;) Wonderful way to learn something new about this city.
We had a wonderful experience with this company and our tour guide. Scheduling the tour was easy and convenient. The tour guide was easy to locate. Our family of four (including two teens) found this tour engaging and interesting. Alexander has a wealth of knowledge on all things Dutch. He was like a storyteller and his visual aids embellished the story. He listened to our interests and incorporated new insights we hadn’t read in the guide books. The tour flew by. He was so generous with his time and knowledge. We have taken a lot of international tours and he is one of the best guides we have ever had.
If you want to have your fist time in Amsterdam pleasant and cute I will highly recommend Your Own Holland team. My trip was with Katya, charming intellectual. She has known all about history, facts, secrets of the Netherlands and has been managing with interesting legends and sense of humor. Thanks for helping to fall in love to Amsterdam)
We really enjoyed the tour. The tour guide was very nice and friendly. We learned a lot of details about the Dutch culture and people. We were shown many interesting locations and advised where we could go on our own and what to see. Highly recommend!
Very informative tour - 2.5 hours passed in one moment. Starting from Rembrandt square we've got to know the Tuschinski cinema and its history. The modern art showroom was marvelous - unique showpieces and the coziness of the inner garden was pleasing, along with the interior and atmosphere of the restaurant. Feel very thankful to our guide Nastya for her effort. Really want to continue exploring the city.
Me and my 9 year old son were on a volunteer tour on June 15th in Amsterdam! I want to say thank you for the interesting tour. The guide Sasha was very interesting and informative. I really want to get on a tour in other cities. Thank you for doing a good deed for Ukrainians. We really need this to divert our minds from the heavy thoughts about the war. Thank you! And see you soon
It was a wonderful walking tour. I learned a lot of new facts about the history of Amsterdam. The guide was very pleasant, spoke loudly and answered all questions in detail.
Wonderful walking tour. Small group, very nice guide, able to show Amsterdam from an unexpected and unique angle, explaining historical and cultural background of the city. It was not my first time in Amsterdam but I learnt new things and enjoyed the excursion a lot. Definitely a recommended activity if you happen to be in Amsterdam.
It was really unforgotten and light fusion Amsterdam travel. I like it! We will meet again in future. Thanks!
I want to thank SNURK for organizing, and your wonderful guide Valentina for an interesting excursion! My parents were very happy to have the opportunity to see Amsterdam and listen interesting stories. I highly recommend to take a tour with one of the guides of this great team! P.S. They provide tours not only in Amsterdam, but in many cities of the Netherlands
Let me express my utmost gratitude for the opportunity to get to know Amsterdam with you. Our special thanks to Sasha for such a wonderful tour. Not only we learned a lot of interesting facts about the city, but also received a range of useful tips on living here.
I really liked the walking tour of Amsterdam with the travel company "Holland for their own". The guide showed unusual places and supplemented them with an interesting story. I recommend to everyone!
The tour of Amsterdam was very mysterious and interesting. We learned many secrets of Amsterdam. Valya is mega cool.
We would like to thank tour agency and particularly Anastasia (our guide) for a wonderful, emotionally rich and colorful tour of Amsterdam! With respect and hope for future meetings, Alena and Margarita
I’ve been leaving in the Netherlands for almost 5 years, but it was amazing to rediscover Amsterdam with Nastia. She showed us hidden gardens and galleries, she was so inspired talking about history and artist. I can’t recommend this tour more! Your heart will stay in Amsterdam.
A wonderful AMS tour by Nastya, very bright, informative, through wonderful places she knows very well. Thank you, Nastya!
Thank you very much to Katya for your wonderful walk in Amsterdam! It was both informative and picturesque, and just really nice! We spent this day with the most charming guide, highly recommend to all who appreciate the living word and erudition
A wonderful city that is mesmerized not only by wonderful houses with a rich history, but also by a magical atmosphere
The tour was amazing. Four hours went by without notice. Special thanks to guide Katya, she talked about the city incredibly interesting, wanted to listen and listen. Thanks to the huge agency for conducting such excursions for Ukrainians.
