Our family’s private tour with Jan was one of the highlights of our week in Amsterdam. Prior to the tour Jan sent an email with questions about our ages, who would be on the tour and what we were interested learning more about during our time with him. Jan was a wonderful guide and lead us on a fantastic tour of the city that was carefully planned for our family’s interests. We were also lucky enough to share a wonderful lunch with Jan as well. Jan not only has incredible knowledge of Amsterdam, but wonderful shopping and dining recommendations. Our 14 year old son loved the tour as well! A tour of Amsterdam with Jan is a must during your vacation!!
