Amsterdamlove - the name is program - We booked the cultural city tour at the end of March 2026 for the start of our 4-day city break in Amsterdam.
Marina initially gave us a very warm welcome.
It was the best decision to start your stay in Amsterdam with a guided tour of Amsterdam Love. Marina brought us closer to her native Amsterdam with a joy that could be felt at all times and which made the whole tour so wonderful. Their program was extremely varied and super interesting!! It also gave us great pleasure to hear so many information about the culture and the city and to get on top even more tips for our stay. Marina did great!! Thank you so much Marina!!

Amsterdam City Centre Tour and Bike Tour Noord - For our girls trip to Amsterdam we decided to take the guided city centre tour to get a first impression of the city. Alex guided us through the centre in a small group and told us a lot about the history of Amsterdam and about life in the city today. An ideal entry for Amsterdam beginners like us!
For the next day we booked a private bike ride through the north of Amsterdam. David guided us safely through the city by bike and showed us how versatile the north is after the ferry crossing: from old fishermen's houses to lonely fields to shipyards, locks and modern buildings, everything is there. We also enjoyed this tour very much.
A big thank you at this point again to Alex and David for the friendly accompaniment as well as to the excellent organization of Amsterdamlove.
