Good value
We had a good time, recommended with a caveat or two. For what is included, the price is more than fair. We used reserved entry tickets to the Rijksmuseum the whole time and it worked perfectly. There were several of us and we could not get seats together. Still recommended.

Casi perfecto
Lo haría de nuevo, aunque cambiaría un par de cosas. Lo de guía turístico profesional en el idioma que elija es un acierto. Es una forma muy práctica de ubicarte en la ciudad el primer día. Una de las paradas estaba cerrada ese día y no lo avisaron. Buena opción, sobre todo si es tu primera visita.

Fair enough
A solid way to see Amsterdam. Not the cheapest, but justified. The guide was good, though I would have liked more time for questions. The only thing is that the pre trip information could be clearer about the meeting point. A good experience on balance.

Vale la pena
Nos quedamos con una buena impresión. Lo de entradas reservadas para el Rijksmuseum funcionó sin problemas. Cambiamos la fecha dos días antes y no hubo ningún problema. Los chicos la pasaron increíble, no querían irse. La única queja es que no avisaron que había bastante escalera. Vale la pena, sabiendo lo anterior.

Highly recommended
We booked this on a whim and it ended up being our favourite day. It costs more than going alone, but it saves you all the planning. Having reserved entry tickets to the Rijksmuseum makes all the difference. Our guide was warm and took time to chat with everyone. If we come back to Amsterdam, we will do it again.

Superou o que esperávamos. Usamos guia turístico profissional no idioma escolhido o tempo todo e funcionou perfeitamente. A parada em Dutch Republic foi o que mais gostamos.
