Really enjoyed the small group tour with Jaime. His passion for the story of Leiden came through in his telling of it.

Jamie was a fabulous guide! We visited many sites, he had many wonderful stories, knowledgeable explanations, make sure we were comfortable throughout the tour, and I felt had investigated in depth information about the sites, the city, highly recommend the tour. He explained initially where we were going to go, what we were going to see, how it all tied in to the history of the city, and when we reached an area/intersection informed us about our immediate route forward so we were not floundering about knowing where to head. A great tour, a great guide!

I have been on many free walking tours around the world, but this one was truly one of my favourites. I learned so much about the city. And Job is also an amazing guide. Really recommend this tour.

If I didn’t take this tour, I would not know so much about Leiden. It is an amazing city and I loved it! Job is also friendly and he loves sharing everything about this tiny student city. Thank you 😍

We were surprised that our tourguide was an American who lived in Leiden voor 2 years. There were things about the history of the Netherlands (not of Leiden) that we (Dutch) had to tell him. We usually choose Guru walk because of the very good local guides. Although Jamie did a good job, we would have prefered a local guide, with much more inside information and not just telling a lesson that he learned.

Guide was super nice and professional. He even recommended me some lunch places. However after double checking I noticed that one of the landmarks of the itinerary was not covered. My recommendation would be to keep an eye on the itinerary.

Hicimos un free tour por Leiden y fue una experiencia agradable en general. El guía estaba haciendo su primer tour en español, así que a veces le faltaba un poco de información. Aun así, fue muy amable y considerado con el grupo, dándonos tiempo para hacer fotos y disfrutar de cada sitio con calma. Además, nos enseñó rincones muy bonitos que merecieron mucho la pena. El tour terminó un poco seco, pero en conjunto fue una buena forma de conocer la ciudad de manera tranquila.

Jamie did a good job giving an orientation to Leiden and Dutch history generally. Was sensitive to the pace and needs if the group.

Job was an absolutely fantastic guide! From the start, he brought great energy and made the whole experience fun and engaging. He even surprised us with drinks and chocolate, which was such a thoughtful touch. He is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and full of interesting stories that really brought Leiden to life. You can tell he’s passionate about what he does, and it made a huge difference in how much we enjoyed the tour. We had an amazing time learning about the city and would highly recommend Job to anyone visiting Leiden!
