On foot in Amsterdam

We will visit the “heart” of Amsterdam – Dam Square, which is built on a piece of land that was reclaimed from the water in ancient times with the help of a dam and mills. And where the tram lines pass today, the Amstel River once flowed, along which ships with exotic goods were docked to the shore. This is how the “City on the Dam” was born – Amsterdam.

The luxurious palace that decorates the square was built like a town hall, but with such luxury that it became the residence of monarchs. There is an old church nearby, which is called New – and why, I will tell you on the tour. Amsterdam tours: combined programs also include a walk along the main Amsterdam canals. Here we admire old houses, and you will learn why they are called “dancing”. And we will definitely go to the floating flower market, which embodies two features of Amsterdam – the connection with water and the love of flowers, especially tulips. We will look into “secret” courtyards, which other tourists do not know about, and discuss their secrets.
