A taste of what is possible with Personal Amsterdam Tours

What I love most is taking my guests on a tour for several days and show them all the highlights of Holland and Belgium. My 11 guests from Indonesia booked me for a couple of days. The first day we did a tour in and around Amsterdam. We visited The Rijks Museum in Amsterdam, ate apple pie in the city, and went to Volendam. The day after we went with 2 luxe vans on a tour to Bruges and Gent. We had great days! Do you want to visit the main highlights of The Netherlands and Belgium? Book a tour right now.

Being your tourguide is my ultimate dreamjob!

I am so privileged to have guided so many very happy clients already. Being a tourguide is my ultimate dreamjob. I can walk in my hometown and favorite city all day and show my guests the best places, parcs, restaurants, sites. I am specialized in personal and private tours. Personal attention, excellent guidance and no queues when we visit the marvellous museums that Amsterdam is famous for. We can also visit the sites that define Holland, like the bulbfields, cheese farm or windmills. Off the beaten path or on it, for a while, but always with a personal touch and something extra that you won’t get if you book your tour with a tours and tickets company. If you want to get to know the best places to sleep, wine & dine, to go out, see the city from above, shop, chill or dance, book a tour with me. I am also specialized in wheelchair tours and tours by car, for people who are not used to or not able to walk long distance tours. One of my guests wrote: “I was lucky enough to have Peter show me around Amsterdam for three days and he showed all the best places to eat and drink. He also managed to get us into all the museums we wanted to go to without having to queue which was amazing! It meant that we had more time to other things during the holiday. Let him show you the best apple pie shop in Amsterdam 🙂” and another guest said: “There is nothing like being shown around a place through the eyes of a native. Of course we saw and did all that a tourist should do and see, but better yet were the side trips, allys, stores, restaurants, and commentaries that only someone who is native can share. My advice is to book Peter at least for a few days. He is totally flexible and will guide you as to the best things do do depending on the time and the weather. He will also tell you exactly what NOT to waste your time and money with.” Can you imagine how happy I will be to guide you? Contact me if you want a tour. Let’s go on an adventure!
