After many jobs where I couldn't really find my site, one day I decided to study for a tour guide in The Netherlands, the most incredible thing is that I discovered that teaching others this country is not a job is a passion, and when you make your passion your way of life you can never say it's a job. This is why I think I am a good guide, because I enjoy every moment that I am on a tour, and that is noticed by my clients. I did not know the platform, but I have had the opportunity in the past to do tours with citizens of Japan, and the truth is the experience is very positive, very educated people and wanting to have fun. This is why I would love to work with you.

As the tour guide I work already 25 years. Within last 15 years I am specialized for the groups and /or individual visits and guides within states of Benelux (The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg ) .

Get ready for a wild ride through the streets of Amsterdam with our amazing team! We all felt in love with Amsterdam, its charm, beautiful architecture and history. We are happy to show you the city in not typical, more alternative, fun, politically incorrect way. You can expect lots of colorful language, humor that may push the envelope, and, yes, a healthy dose of history thrown in for good measure. So, if you're ready to break away from the norm and experience Amsterdam like never before, then this is the tour for you! No holds barred, no snowflakes allowed!

Hi, my name is Ed. I started Kayak in Amsterdam in 2019 to share my passion for this city with people from all over the world. The Amsterdam canals are unique in their beauty and history, and to explore them from your own kayak is a truly magical and unforgettable experience. With our personalized tours you can discover Amsterdam in freedom and at your own pace. We show you the highlights, but also take you to interesting and beautiful places where the big tour boats can’t go. With small groups of maximum 5 people our friendly and experienced local guides will make sure your tour is safe and fun. We are centrally located so your tour along the canals will start right away. Come join us for a paddle that you will remember! Ed

Welcome, I'm Sebi and together with Olivier we have the best canal tour experience in Amsterdam. We are two true Amsterdammers who love our beautiful city. After years of captaining on the canals, we started our own company with a historic, now-modernized boat (“Giuliana”) to deliver the ultimate cruise experience. Our rebuilt 100% electric vessel provides the passenger with a comfortable (we have a toilet), safe and environmentally friendly experience with great visibility both on beautiful summer days (open) and in the cold, wet winter days (dry and warm). We cruise with a maximum of 12 passengers on our boat, providing a spacious and personal experience with many bespoke options like food and drinks, sailing routes etc.

I am the team leader of a group of professional guides. Each of us arrived to the Netherlands with our suitcases full of dreams, under different circumstances, and with different motivations. After some years working in the Tourism Industry, we decided to use that knowledge to start our own company. Our goal is taking advantage of our experience, and improve the weakness of the “traditional” Tour Operators. In 2017 our company was born willing to provide visitors a unique experience. There is not a better planner than a guide who knows the city and can make the best out of your time in the city. I believe that your memories are the most important part of the trip. We like to have a direct contact with our customers from the start, and tailor making your experience with the highest quality standards. Our team has been showing the best of the country over 10 years. My goal is to show you the heart and soul of the Netherlands. We love to see you smiling and enjoying each part of your trip with us. Always in a friendly and responsible environment, showing you the traditions and the Dutch way of living.

Since 2005, we have been providing highly educated, Chinese - speaking guides, tour leaders, hosts and interpreters to companies and individuals. We have a wealth of experience and expertise in tour operating and with Chinese tourists. I have worked for several years co-ordinating representatives and tour managers for a number of operators. I was responsible for educating guides and tour managers as coordinator for the BUAS (Breda) and for the University of Inholland for the Tourism courses. ​ "Tour leading groups is something that has to fit your personality and competencies. You must have a passion for people and adventure and the enthusiasm to inspire a new group every day. Together with these qualities, you must have comprehensive knowledge of the destination and its culture". The Chinese speaking guides of our team all work for us for more then 10 years. The are service - minded and very knowledgeable. Your wish is our command!

Fake tour guide

Playing mind games with me and manipulation can affect people metal health and she certainly is persistent faking a relationship or testing me and still thinking we going to be best friends. I honestly never agreed on any of this its very immature of her as I paid for a tour guide that all but it was all one big game for her to boast her ego and benefit from Min uses all my weaknesses like being valuable and very shy to take advantage she should not be trusted as a tour guide and she needs to grow up or be trained properly.

What a Superstar

We had the pleasure of touring Tokyo with Toshi over 2 days. With his breadth of knowledge about Japanese culture, history, geography and religions, he was able to supplement our itinerary with facts giving us a deeper understanding of the shrines, temples, traditions famous buildings, and other landmarks. Toshi drew up a lovely itinerary really covering all the main highlights both the historical along with the modern. With his insight and experience, we were able to fully experience everything that this beautiful capita had to offer, and to fully embrace ourselves in Japanese culture with recommendations of food markets and restaurants. Before the trip he thoroughly answered all of our questions and concerns online, and tailored a perfect itinerary for our group ( 3 adults and 3 teenagers). Toshi was extremely patient and took time to answer all our questions. He always ensured that we were together as a group. He would wait patiently as my elderly mother tried keeping up with us and my three teenage kids. Overall a wonderful and extremely memorable 2 days We highly recommend Toshi

Tokyo, Kawasaki and Haneda

Hisakosan was an intrepid and insightful guide to Tokyo, Kawasaki and guiding me to Haneda. Hisako was willing to help me try and track down an aunt I had lost touch with (after she was assured I was not a scammer - good to think about!). She helped interview the local Koban officer, check at the Ward office, and investigate possible addresses. After a day of fact checking, she still squeezed in a fun afternoon in Tokyo, taking me to historical cafes, Takeshimaya Department Store (which still has a staffed elevator - one of my favorite childhood memories), and a peek at the Pokemon Center (wow). But the best part - a restorative stop at Y's Sewing Table (@ys.sewingtable), where Suzusan recycles kimono, obi and tenugui (the cotton head wrap) into shirts, dresses, bags and offers classes. Suzusan hosted us to cold green tea (!) and showed us her hand dyed fabrics using fermented persimmons. Super day - and wonderful company later to Haneda!
