Your Free Tour in the City Center of Amsterdam will start with a trip back in time to the origins of this historical capital, built on wooden poles on water since the 12th century and later protected with dykes. As you walk through beautiful canals and enjoy the sight of the Rembrandt House Museum, you will also learn about Amsterdam’s Golden Age, when the capital ranked as the third largest city in Europe (just behind London and Paris!). Then, at the Tulip Museum you’ll hear the surprising story of the Dutch tulip bulb market bubble that took the country by storm in the 17th-century, and understand how the ‘Dutch business mentality’ transformed the region into a blossoming economy that attracted a cosmopolitan population.
Strolling around the Jewish Quarter, you’ll immerse yourself in the disasters that the WWII brought to the Netherlands, and learn about the tragic life of an inspiring child-hero – Anna Frank. You’ll hear tragic tales about the fierce bombing of the city, the expropriations committed by many soldiers, as well as the lives of the 25,000 Jews that had to go into hiding to scape death and deportation. Walking around Dam Square you’ll witness how local people rebuilt Amsterdam, until it became not only one of the most liberal places in Europe, but also the most multi-cultural (with more than 180 nationalities living harmoniously).
