Private tour questions

What makes these tours private?

Every tour on this page runs for your group only. You are never put together with strangers, the guide talks to you rather than to a crowd, and the pace and the route bend to what you are interested in.

Can you pick us up from our hotel, in another city?

Yes. We offer paid pick-up and drop-off within roughly 100 km of where the tour starts, which is about a 1.5 hour drive and covers Amsterdam and most of the Randstad. Add it while booking, or book it separately before the tour date. For anything further out, get in touch and we will quote it.

Which languages are the tours available in?

English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish and Italian (in Maastricht and Middelburg: English, Dutch, German and French, other languages on request). Tell us which one you want when you book, and we will assign a guide who speaks it.

How many people can join one tour?

One guide takes up to 20 people on a walking tour, 15 in Amsterdam. Beyond that we add guides and split the group, starting each smaller group a few minutes apart on the same route. If you would rather stay together, a whisper system lets one guide take a larger group, as long as you ask at least a week ahead so the equipment reaches your city in time.

Can we combine more than one city in a day?

Yes. The multi-city tours above already do it, with the travel between the cities arranged for you. If the combination you want is not listed, ask us and we will build it.

Can we start or finish somewhere specific?

Usually, yes. Each tour has a standard meeting point, but because these are private tours we can often start or end at your hotel, a restaurant, or a station instead. Mention it in the special requests field when you book.

What happens if it rains?

The tour goes ahead in almost all weather. Our guides know their cities well enough to lean on covered stops and indoor moments when it turns wet.

How far in advance should we book?

A few days is usually enough for a single city, though popular spring and summer dates fill up sooner. Larger groups and multi-city days are best booked a few weeks ahead.

Are entrance fees included?

It depends on the tour, and each tour page lists exactly what is included. Walking tours cover the streets and the stories; entry to churches, museums or a Cube House is included only where the Included list says so, and some can be added at checkout.

Should I tip my guide?

A gratuity is not included and tipping is never expected in the Netherlands, but it is always appreciated if you enjoyed your tour. If you would like a guideline, guests who tip usually give around 5 to 10% of the tour price, in cash to the guide.
