FreeDam Tours are a professional bunch of people with good command on local knowledge. I would recommend this!
We had so much fun and laughs with the tour! It was a pleasure to learn the highlights from the Nederlands culture and Amsterdam city with the tour guide Sergio. Don’t expect a regular tour with architectonical details and boring historical of history. He kept us all the time alive and entertained. Highly recommend!!!
We really enjoyed the tour through Amsterdam with Nick! He is such a charismatic and funny storyteller!! He showed us the mandatory touristic attractions but also smaller insider places. In the end he gave us some nice recommendations and we left with a great smile! Thank you so much for the tour, Nick! :)
Sam is an amazing story teller, interesting and warm so we had a great time. He also gave us many tips about restaurants, places to visit etc. TNX Sam
