Yvonne

Guide profile:

My name is Yvonne and I would like to guide you through Amsterdam. I will show you the must see attractions such as Dam square, Flower Market and the Canals as well as places “off the beaten path”. Always with a personal touch, because I want your trip to Amsterdam to be memorable and fun.

Originally from the Netherlands, my tour will offer you a view of Amsterdam, as a local would see it, including little known facts from a point of view only a local would have.

I’ve traveled for many years around the world: I visited India three times and had the opportunity to do volunteer work in one of the houses founded by Mother Teresa; Went on a bicycle road trip through the Western United States from New Mexico to the Canadian border; and visited South America and Spain more than once.

I am also an experienced tour guide. While living and working for several years in Mexico, I organized and led two, three and four week trips throughout Mexico and Central America. One of my best memories is leading a trip to Guatemala where my group and I helped locals with the construction of houses in poor villages.

After returning to the Netherlands I settled in Amsterdam where I live in a lively neighborhood in which many different nationalities and cultures are represented.

Making connections with cultures from all over the world is something I am passionate about.

Let me connect you to Amsterdam!

Yvonne was excellent! She tailored a tour to our requirements and provided an interesting and informative 3 hours. She also provided fantastic information on living in (and visiting) Amsterdam. Great tour guide!

Tour guide services/sample itinerary:

*My 3 hour walking tour gives you a good overview of the city. Of course you can extend this tour to see more less known places. A 3 hour tour is a good starting point for your stay in Amsterdam or gives you the opportunity to get an impression when only for a short time in town.

*If you do not want to walk or if you are not able to walk a lot I recommend a Hop-on Hop-off canal cruise tour, this tour is a perfect combination of a minimum of walking and a canal cruise.

*Schiphol Lay-over tours/ shore excursion tours: all tours can be booked including meeting you at the airport or at the Amsterdam Cruise Passenger terminal.

*I am specialized in customized tours: I can adapt the tour to children,elderly, special interest tours, visiting local places.

5 stars Greg H. 01 Jul 2012

Yvonne was fantastic and gave us exactly the walking tour of Amsterdam that we wanted. She was easy to get along with and willing to go at our pace. She was even kind enough to change the day when our plane was delayed. We would definitely use her again.

Tour Guide Comment: Dear Greg, Thank you for the beautiful review! I have loved doing a tour for you. Hope to seeing you again in future!
