Amsterdam sights and insider tips

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: German

We experience Amsterdam like real Amsterdamers – on a bike. Not a list of attractions, but a journey through the history of this city – told in the places where it really happened.

From the Brouwersgracht, where Amsterdam emerged as a small trading village, to the West Indian House in the middle of the golden age – when Amsterdam’s ships ruled the world’s oceans.
At the Torensluis Bridge we talk openly about the dark side of this wealth : colonialism and slavery.
Continue to the Westerkerk, the Anne Frank House and through the moving history of the Jewish community of this city.
A break in the Vondelpark – with coffee or a beer in the beer garden. At the Museum Square we clarify the most important question : Have there always been so many bicycles here?
And finally, a place most visitors never get to see – Begijnhof. Let yourself be surprised.

After the tour : personal recommendations for more unforgettable days in Amsterdam.
