My couple and I really loved this walking tour, Stefanie was very kind and charming during all the tour, and made our experience outstanding by exceeding our expectations. We are from Panama and we could only imagine and understand certain things, but walking trough the city with the knowledge and storytelling skills from Stefanie, we could really jump into the history and learn much more about it with significant histories, references to the book and nice pictures from places to have an idea on what happened. We really like it and understood perfectly.

We were very happy with the tour and Julia as our guide. She was a very good storyteller and the way she brought the diary in the story was very good. There were many details, that amazed us, and made us think of the many troubles that the jews faced.

David, our guide, was very passionate and knowledgeable about the history of Anne Frank and the Jewish quarter. It was a joy to hear about the history. I was running a few minutes late so I really appreciate the fact that David called me to say all was good and explained where to find them.

A journey through history: Amsterdam's Jewish heritage

Go on an enlightening journey that will show you Amsterdam's Jewish history, starting at the remarkable 15th-century Waag building at Nieuwmarkt Square. With a choice of an English-speaking guide, you're led through a chronicle of the city's rich Jewish heritage, winding through noteworthy landmarks such as the Zuiderkerk, a 17th-century Protestant church, and Huis de Pinto, a mansion reflecting the affluence of a Sephardic Jewish family. Uncover how famed painter Rembrandt's art was influenced by his Jewish neighbors and the intriguing Stolpersteine – small memorial stones paying tribute to Holocaust victims.

An evocative voyage of remembrance and resilience

Learn about Anne Frank and her life while she was in hiding when she wrote her famous diary. You also have the option to choose between a 2 or 3-hour tour. The 2-hour tour covers spots such as the Portuguese Synagogue, a testament to Amsterdam's cultural diversity during the Golden Age. This tour concludes with a visit to the National Holocaust Names Monument. The 3-hour tour starts in the Jewish Quarter and will take you past the Trippenhuis Building on Amsterdam's Kloveniersburgwal canal, which once housed the Dutch East India Company.
