Tour description

Discover the Jordaan: the bohemian soul of Amsterdam

Dare to explore the iconic Jordaan neighbourhood, a vibrant and authentic corner of Amsterdam where history and bohemianism intertwine. This tour reveals the spirit that made the Jordaan the epicentre of counterculture , from its heyday in the 1960s with the arrival of hippie culture to its current role as a refuge for artists and creatives.

Guided by experts, you'll discover iconic sites such as the Anne Frank House , a symbol of resistance and memory, the Homomonument, the houseboats and the live music bars, where local talent and the sounds of the city fill the atmosphere with energy and authenticity. Also discover the narrow streets of the neighbourhood, dotted with antique shops, artist studios and hofjes , the hidden gardens that reflect community life in the heart of the city.

Throughout the tour, you will hear fascinating stories that capture the history and essence of the Jordaan, offering an intimate perspective on the daily life and stories of its inhabitants. This experience is ideal for those looking for a cultural immersion in Amsterdam, away from the more touristy areas, enjoying the authentic atmosphere of the Jordaan and its rich history.

At the end, you will receive recommendations for restaurants, bars and live music venues so you can continue exploring the neighborhood at your own pace after the visit.
