Itineraries

Each itinerary will take you on a journey through the history of the city, including the famous and much-praised Westertoren, the beautiful stately mansions along the Prinsengracht, Herengracht, Keizersgracht and the Leidsegracht with its centuries-old trees.

 
 
The river Amstel with the Magere Brug ('Skinny Bridge'), and the famous Royal Theatre Carré. The number of pavement steps represented the status of the people residing in the mansion. Our journey continues along the old harbour, Oosterdok and Central Railway Station, before returning to the Damrak, our original starting point. (subject to alterations)
