The Jordaan
Taste with one of our locals the authentic ambiance of the Jordaan. This tour gives you a chance to experience the Jordaan as absolutely no other tour. In a few hours you are brought up to date on the history, the trendy places to shop and you experience the typical environment of the Jordaan, undoubtedly the most romantic city district of the Netherlands!

What can you expect?

You will discover more regarding the history of this sparkling neighbourhood in the trendy shopping street the Haarlemmerdijk (where your local will tip you on the latest hotspots) and the centuries will come and fly before your eyes taking the district from its earl=y days of great poverty to luxuriously wealth it displays today. On the Noordermarkt, you will discover a lively market on Mondays and Saturdays. If you visit the Noordermarkt on another day than market-day, you must try a piece of apple-pie!! but not least you will discover the famous almshouses of this neighbourhood. Almost impossible to imagine that you could find such an oasis of peace and quiet in the middle of the city centre of Amsterdam, don’t you think?
