Activity itinerary

Nieuwmarkt (Pass by)

Most beautiful square of the city, with its impressive 'de Waag' in the middle, where Rembrandt came to paint back in the days.

Zeedijk

  • 10m
The Zeedijk is the vibrant centre of Amsterdam’s Chinatown, while De Wallen is famous worldwide as the city's primary Red Light District. De Wallen is the oldest part of Amsterdam, known for its historic canals, narrow alleyways, and iconic red-light windows.

Kloveniersburgwal, Amsterdam

  • 10m
Established in 1602, the Dutch East India Company (VOC) was the world's first multinational corporation and joint-stock company, dominating global spice trade for nearly 200 years.

Spinhuissteeg

  • 5m
The Spinhuis (Spinning House) in Amsterdam was one of the world's first correctional facilities for women, established in 1597 in a former convent on the Oudezijds Achterburgwal. It served as a house of correction (tuchthuis) designed to reform women through forced labour, specifically the spinning of flax, wool, or hemp.

Munt Tower (Munttoren)

  • 5m
The Munttoren (Mint Tower) is a historic, 35-meter-high landmark in Amsterdam located at the Muntplein square where the Amstel river and Singel canal meet. Originally a 15th-century medieval city gate (Regulierspoort), it was redesigned by Hendrick de Keyser in the 17th century with an iconic octagonal spire and carillon after a fire.

Bloemenmarkt

  • 10m
The Bloemenmarkt in Amsterdam is the world's only floating flower market and one of the city's most vibrant, photographed attractions. Located on the Singel canal between Koningsplein and Muntplein, this historic market has been a fixture in the city centre since 1862.

Begijnhof

  • 10m
The Begijnhof in Amsterdam is a serene, historic courtyard dating back to the 14th century, originally housing Béguines—religious women who lived like nuns without taking monastic vows. As a hidden, gated oasis near Spui, it features traditional Amsterdam townhouses, a quiet garden, and the city's oldest wooden house (c. 1420).

Spui

  • 10m
The Spui is a well-known square and street in the centre of Amsterdam, located between the Rokin and the Singel canal.

Dam Square

  • 5m
Located in the historic centre, this square is the backdrop for hundreds of years of history. Here you will find iconic buildings such as the Royal Palace, the New Church, and the imposing National Monument, in memory of the victims of the Second World War.

Melly's StroopWafels

  • 15m
Melly’s Stroopwafels, located in the heart of Amsterdam, is a family-run business. Here you will hear about the history and taste their delicious freshly bakes stroopwafels.

Statue of Multatuli

  • 5m
Multatuli is the pseudonym of Eduard Douwes Dekker (1820–1887), widely recognised as the most important and influential nineteenth-century Dutch writer. He is best known for his 1860 novel Max Havelaar, a powerful critique of Dutch colonial rule in the East Indies.

Anne Frank House

  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
The Anne Frank House is a biographical museum in Amsterdam, located at Prinsengracht 263, where Jewish diarist Anne Frank hid from Nazis during WWII. It features the preserved, sparse "Secret Annex" behind a movable bookcase, along with exhibits, original items, and photos showcasing the lives of the eight people in hiding.
