Maja was a wonderful guide and host and we very happy with our tour. Even though our kids were a little shy and tired at the end of the holiday she worked tirelessly to engage with them and provide them with a great experience learning all about the Dutch masters at the Reijkmuseum. She was friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and made getting around the museum a breeze. Would highly recommend Maja to anyone looking to have an excellent museum experience.
My husband and I went on this tour with Jurgen, who was an absolutely fantastic guide!! He made the tour so much fun and showed us many hidden gems that we wouldn't have known to venture into on our own. Jurgen is a great person to show you around Amsterdam- we felt very fortunate to spend the afternoon with him and appreciated checking out several local establishments, instead of just sticking to the touristy areas. We would definitely recommend this tour to others!
Tanja was an excellent guide for the Rijksmiseum. We learned so much in a short time. Loved her focus on women artists as well.
