The Jordaan tours, things to do and tickets

Walk through Amsterdam with a professional guide that shows you Amsterdam during the World War II, through the eyes of Anne Frank. This 2 hour small group tour goes from the Old Jewish Quarter to the Jordaan District, where the Anne Frank House is located. Hear the full story of these dark days.

After introductions with your guide, set off to explore Amsterdam like the locals do: by bike! With around 250 miles (400 km) of bike lanes and paths traversing the flat urban terrain, Amsterdam is a cyclist's dream. But be careful, you need to be a skilled cyclist to survive the Amsterdam traffic!

We will lead you to well-known local landmarks and lesser-known attractions. No one tour will be the same; each individual guide tailors the route to best show off their local knowledge.

You might go over the Museum Square, home to three of the city’s major museums including the Van Gogh Museum, then cruise onward to the bustling Dam Square to admire views of the classical Royal Palace or get lost in the old Jordaan Neighbourhood. Hear about the liberal drug and prostitution laws that govern the city, and let your guide point out interesting venues and nightclubs.

If you have some experience on the bike, this is the best way to get a feeling of Amsterdam's cycling culture.

While in port in Amsterdam, see the city's highlights like a local on this private shore excursion.
