 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Angie a été une guide vraiment exceptionnelle. Dès les premières minutes, on a senti qu’elle connaissait son sujet sur le bout des doigts. Elle nous a parlé d’Anne Frank avec un vrai souci du détail, en prenant le temps d’expliquer chaque élément, chaque contexte, chaque nuance. Elle répondait à toutes nos questions sans jamais se presser, avec une grande sensibilité et beaucoup de respect pour l’histoire qu’elle racontait. Grâce à elle, on a compris des choses qu’on n’aurait jamais vues seuls. Une visite marquante, rendue encore plus forte par la qualité de son accompagnement. Angie, c’est le genre de guide qu’on n’oublie pas.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an excellent walking tour of the Jordaan area/specifically the area around the Anne Frank house. Our guide was Giovanni and he was outstanding! He’s very knowledgeable about the area and the history of the events here during that time. He also has a large spiral notebook with laminated photos of the areas we visited to compare then and now. It was rainy at times, but we found covered areas and still saw and learned many, many interesting things. We had tickets to the Anne Frank house after our walking tour and it was even more meaningful because of Giovanni’s explanations/photos of the house and where the Franks were hidden. This was a great small group tour! Thank you Giovanni!!

 Verified Gio was fantastic A great tour with a passionate guide and knowledgeable guide. Showed us things that we would never know without local knowledge. Highly recommended. Because the city is noisy at some parts a VOX system for audio would be the only suggestion.
