A city like Amsterdam for 7 centuries could not but acquire a hundred or two tales and curious stories. We'll talk about the most curious of them during our walk! You will see Dam Square, the Red Light District, hidden churches and "dancing houses" live. And at the same time you will figure out how the indigenous Dutch live, why the locals love bicycles and what is the secret of scandalous coffee shops. Online excursion Duration 1.5 hours Children Without children Rating 4.87 on 86 reviews € 7 per person
What will you see and learn
- Famous "dancing" and "floating" houses … Let's talk about how Amsterdam and its legendary canals were built, what is interesting about Dutch architecture and what Manhattan has to do with it.
- Beautiful flower market … I will tell you why tulips formed the basis of the first financial pyramid in Europe, how the “tulip rush” began in the Netherlands and what could be bought for one flower bulb.
- Main Dam Square … Here we will talk about the Dutch colonies, public holidays and important events from the history of the city.
- Red light district and coffee shops … Let's discuss whether Amsterdam can really be called a "city of sin", where coffee shops came from and at what age the "employees" of the scandalous quarter retire.
And in 1.5 hours we will look into a unique Amsterdam courtyard and understand the local way of life: for example, why a bicycle is so important for a Dutchman, how to eat herring “in Amsterdam style” and what three things absolutely every “burgher” can do.
