Holly Joscelyne
Since completing her Master's in Museum Studies at the University of Amsterdam in 2020, Holly has been pursuing a career as an expert guide. She enjoys combining her academic background with her experience as an expatriate living in Amsterdam to share stories of Amsterdam's rich history.
During her studies, Holly specialized in provenance research and decolonization, and applies this perspective in her Rijksmuseum and walking tours. In addition to this, she has deeply researched the history of the Netherlands during World War II, and draws from her partner’s family’s experiences when giving tours of the Jewish Historic Quarter.
Holly has a lifelong love for history and is proud to share this with visitors to Amsterdam.
Holly was extremely knowledgeable; she focused the tour on our specific interests adding alot of historical background. The tour was well paced. Highly recommended.
Holly was amazing—so interesting and full of so much detailed information. We could have listened to her forever. She was fun to be with, and made the tour a real pleasure! Definitely would love to do a tour with her again.
Holly was very informative and a delight to converse with during our tour! Thank you, Rocky and Diane
