Hi, I’m Ela! I’m a Polish expat who’s called Amsterdam home for the past 6 years. I love sharing personal stories, discovering hidden gems, and helping others see the city through fresh eyes. When I’m not guiding, I’m running, browsing design shops, or planning my next adventure.

Tour description

Ever dreamed of experiencing Amsterdam beyond the tourist trail? This relaxed 2-hour walk takes you through some of the city’s most beautiful and authentic areas—Vondelpark, Jordaan, and the iconic Prinsengracht canal—blending a local perspective with peaceful exploration. 

Rather than a typical sightseeing tour, this is a casual walk filled with stories, insights, and everyday places locals love. You'll discover where people unwind, where hidden gems are tucked away, and how the city truly feels when you slow down and take it in. 

We’ll finish with an optional complimentary drink on a private rooftop terrace overlooking the Rijksmuseum—an open-air moment to relax and enjoy the view. 

Please note: This experience runs with a minimum of 2 participants. If only one person is booked, I may cancel the walk and notify you in advance. 

If you're looking for a calm, authentic way to experience Amsterdam, join the walk and see the city differently.

Outside visit
Spiegelgracht
This is where the tour starts. We meet at this cozy corner by the canal, where old Amsterdam charm greets us. It’s the perfect place to set the tone: a quiet, postcard-perfect street full of art galleries and character.
2
Outside visit
Museumplein
Approaching from the grand Concertgebouw side, we’ll take in one of Amsterdam’s most iconic open spaces. Framed by world-class museums and wide lawns, it’s where locals sunbathe, kids play, and cultural energy flows—an ideal place to pause, look around, and take in the beauty of the city’s artistic heart.

Outside visit
Vondelpark
A short walk takes us into the city’s most beloved park. I’ll show you where locals go to relax, reflect, and recharge—and we’ll take in some peaceful greenery away from the city buzz
