I wanted to show my family my beloved Amsterdam in such a way that they would fall in love with it too. We really enjoyed the tour and our guide Maria. We discussed history, architecture, and life in the Netherlands in general. It was a wonderful experience that made our vacation truly memorable.
Anna was so wonderful, and even though we encountered rain (and even hail) she never faltered! She was so informative, and gave us so much background on all of the places we visited. We enjoyed it so much and would HIGHLY recommend this tour! Thank You, Anna for making the day special for us in spite of the weather!
Sasha took us to a small cafe with glass walls, showing a beautiful view of the city. He imparted a great deal of info about the city’s history
Our guide Sasha did a fantastic job to bring us around Amsterdam. We saw some of the unique building structures along the canels. We also managed to try some street foods - delicious!
It was our second visit to Amsterdam, and, like in a previous time, we used SnarkTravel for our guide tour through the old city. We are delighted with this experience. The tour was exciting, informative, and professional. We would use them next time and recommend them to others.
"Дождь нам не помеха" Несмотря на погодные условия экскурсия по Амстердаму была интересной и познавательной. Гид Катерина очень увлекательно рассказывала интересные истории разных времен о жизни необычных людей. Экскурсия была легкой и не принужденной. Рекомендую, не пожалеете. С уважением, Галина. "The rain won't stop us" Despite the weather conditions, the tour of Amsterdam was interesting and informative. The guide Katerina told interesting stories from different times about the life of unusual people in a very exciting way. The tour was easy and not forced. I recommend, you won't regret it. Sincerely, Galina.
The tour was excellent! The guide Sasha was truly awesome and humorous. And if you want to know how people lived, felt and made decisions hundreds years ago, I'd highly recommend this walk through the old city of Amsterdam
It was a wonderful walk despite it was not my first visit to Amsterdam. I have discvered so many new places I would probably never see on my own: Sint-Jozefkerk (De Papegaai), béguinage Amsterdam, KONINKLIJK THEATER TUSCHINSKI. Sasha is passionate about tours and you will be captured by storytelling, plenty of interesting details and views. I highly recommend the tours.
I enjoyed walking with Oleksandr through the familiar streets of Amsterdam and listening to interesting new stories. Very informative, with a portion of humor presentation made our trip easy, interesting despite on rain .
Thank you for the excurision with the guide Anastasia! The excursion was wonderful! I was amazed by Nastia's stories about the history of Amsterdam. She is an experienced guide and interesting interlocutor! After the excursion I fell in love with Amsterdam even more than before)))
Thank you so much for the excursion! Nastya - an excellent guide! Very liked! It was wonderful, I feel blessed to be able to visit Amsterdam
YOUR OWN HOLLAND I would like to thank you once again for so alive and vivid exercion in Amsterdam. Our guide Nastya was fantastic. Instead of usual exersoin's routine from dates and architectural details we learned the live history and characters of the Netherlands and visited places tourist never see.
We had a wonderful walk together with Oleksandr, who showed us the Central Station, Dam Square, Rembrandt square and other old houses, streets and channels with curious stories behind them. It was an easy walking tour with Ukrainian group of people in Ukrainian language, which e made this experience soulful and unforgettable. Thank you!
Thank you for the tour!!!!! Interestingly, emotionally I wanted to continue communication with this wonderful guide Katya. We hope that we will have many interesting meetings and we will learn a lot about the history and development of this wonderful country, the Netherlands, the country that accepted us Ukrainians with an open heart in a difficult time for all of us. Thank you.
Thank owner -lider Ekaterina for interesting authоrs tour in Old Center of Amstersam for Ukrainian people. This is both an excursion and a history of the mentality and phenomenon of the Dutch. We are already reviewing the announcements of the next excursions.
Thank very much to the guide Alexander for a wonderful tour. It was very interesting and educational! And special thanks for the Ukrainian language❤️
I really liked this excursion, we discovered the history of the city century by century. learned people's stories and character traits that were formed over time
Good evening. Today I was on an excursion with Anastasia. I really liked the tour (very informative and fun).
That is the best way to start your exploration of the city. Our tour guide Kate was just perfect: open, with a great sense of humor and ready to answer any question we had. Moreover, except interesting historical part, she gave us a great recommendation of places to visit (from the point of view of the citizen). Unforgettable experience!
We enjoyed tours with Snurk! It was so fun, interesting and exciting! I already miss you, guys! See you soon!
large organisation of public transport both on land and underground. The center is like any major capital: lots of movement, many tourist shops high prices... great offer for eating. Well-kept museums and well organized. In certain areas of the city the cleaning is not very accurate, but on the other hand there are really many and especially many rude tourists and little attention to cleanliness. A cosmopolitan city verca. Conspicuous public transport also for excursions outside the city in tourist areas. The nice thing is that you use almost everywhere only credit card. Little use of cash. Some of our shopkeepers should learn. You don't go to Amsterdam to enjoy food because it's not like you eat great. If you have good legs and comfortable sneakers it is best to visit the city on foot. Bike is also preferable. Everywhere there are rentals. It is worth doing an excursion (in max half an hour from Amsterdam Central statio you get there) to Zandaam Zaanschans Volendam the Keukenhof garden (only in the period 11 March - 11 May approx.)
Oleksandr ist ein sympathischer, motivierter Tourguide, der uns viel Interessantes über Amsterdam erzählt hat. Er konnte unsere Fragen beantworten und hat das Tour Programm auf unsere Wünsche angepasst. Wir haben die Tour sehr genossen und können sie empfehlen.
Thank you so much for your enlightening and fun walk through Amsterdam. Alexander's tour was positive and fascinating.
It's a stroke of happiness to meet such an excursionist! Charismatic, fascinating, erudite! And that's all Katya!!
