Private Anna Frank Walking Tour

Walk through Amsterdam with a professional guide who shows you Amsterdam during the second world war, through the eyes of Anne Frank. The tour goes from the Jewish Quarter to Anne Frank’s House, for the complete storyline of these dark days.

Description

Travel back to the dark days of World War II on a 2-hour walking tour of Amsterdam, and learn what life was like following the occupation of the Netherlands by the Germans in 1940-1945 and how Anne Frank became an icon of the brutality of suppression. Hear the story about her diary and how it came to be published by her father Otto Frank.

Meet your guide close to Waterloo Square. Stroll past monuments and buildings still marked by traces of war. Your guide will bring the history to life, giving you a sense of how the city’s citizens behaved during the occupation, and how they moved around in times of horror.

Learn why the Dutch tried to co-exist with the occupying army, and how the Dutch behaved towards the Jews of Amsterdam like Anne Frank. Hear about several important events, such as the February Strike and Winter of Hunger.

Visit the Jewish neighborhood, with its Portuguese synagoge and museum, the Hollandsche schouwburg, and the head office of the Jewish counsel. Discover locations the Dutch resistance offered as secret hiding places to families like the Franks. The tour ends at Anne Frank’s House, admission is not included.

Ideal for fans of European history, the tour also gives an insight into how the Jewish community lived, survived and still thrive in Amsterdam.

The museum was just awesome and Giovanni definitely turned the entire journey into an amazing experience. He is an expert in Van Gogh’s life and creations. I highly recommend you to ask for Giovanni when booking your tour.

Nos dio el tour Giovanni, tiene muchísima información, así que te enseña muchísimas cosas durante el tour, lo que más me agradó es que le apasiona el arte, entonces cuando te explica las pinturas puedes ver cómo te contagia de las emociones que el artista quería proyectar

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. At the Van Gogh Museum today, charming Giovanni  kept our small group riveted, telling the artist's story, his evolving technique, his relationship to his brother and influences of his contemporaries. It was an excellent tour and I recommend Giovanni very highly.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. While the Van Gogh Museum has always been one of my favorites, today it was made better by the small group tour conducted by Giovanni.  His insights, expertise in art history, and charming personality added to my experience of Vincent Van Gogh.  Ask for him specifically, you will NOT be so happy you did!
