Very easy to book. Great communication giving clear details of where to meet etc. We had a fabulous guide - Jyri (apologies if I’ve misspelled name) A very knowledgeable historian. Engaging person who was willing and able to answer ‘random’ questions. He was generous with his time whilst remaining on time for his next tour.

As a solo traveller I absolutely loved this experience. Very interesting tour that provided lots of information aabout Anne Frank's story and the Jewish history that will stay with me for a long time. The tour guide was so lovely and really made the tour fun! He was happy to answer any question!!

Our Tour was exactly what I hoped it would be. Our guide, Jonatan, was friendly, funny, and extremely knowledgeable. He covered the history of Amsterdam in general and as well as the history of the Jews in the city. Since it is not included in the tour, we visited the Portuguese Synagogue and Jewish Museum immediately after which made for a very fulfilling afternoon.
