Originally a working-class neighbourhood, the Jordaan has become one of the most expensive, upscale locations in the Netherlands. It is home to many art galleries, particularly for modern art, and is also dotted with speciality shops and restaurants. Markets are held regularly at Noordermarkt, the Westerstraat (the Lapjesmarkt textile market) and Lindengracht. Rembrandt spent the last years of his life in the Jordaan, on the Rozengracht canal. He was buried in the Westerkerk church, at the corner of Rozengracht and Prinsengracht, just beyond the Jordaan. The Anne Frank House, where Anne Frank went into hiding during World War II, is located on the edge of the Jordaan, on the Prinsengracht canal.
The Latin Church, also known as the Western Church or the Roman Catholic Church,[N 1] is the largest particular church sui iuris of the Catholic Church, and employs the Latin liturgical rites. It is one of 24 such churches, the 23 others forming the Eastern Catholic Churches. It is headed by the bishop of Rome, the pope – traditionally also called the patriarch of the West – with his cathedra in this role at the Archbasilica of Saint John Lateran in Rome, Italy. The Latin Church traces its history to the earliest days of Christianity through its direct leadership under the Holy See, founded by Peter and Paul, according to Catholic tradition.
The starting point is The Passenger Cruise Terminal of Amsterdam at the most beautiful view on the IJ River, a ten-minute walk from Amsterdam Centraal station.

Fun way to see Amsterdam! Red was a great tour guide! Kind and knowledgeable of historical information. The bikes are fun, but definitely be on your A game, paying attention to all of the cars and bikes at different crossings. So glad we did this tour and experienced Amsterdam like a local on a bicycle!

You’re absolutely right, biking in Amsterdam keeps you on your toes, but it’s such a special way to see the city like a local. We’re glad you joined the adventure and hope to see you again soon! 💕
Shop staff off-hand. Not a small group. We did neighborhoods but I must have missed the gems. As the group was not small we had to wait for people to catch up after making manouvers. There was a 25 min break in the middle of the tour. Could have been so much better and could have dome a lot more with the time.
Dear Sir, hank you for your feedback. We're sorry the tour didn’t meet your expectations. Our mid-tour break is held in the Vondel park to let guests relax and enjoy the scenery — not to waste time. Group sizes can vary, but we always do our best to ensure everyone feels included and the experience is enjoyable. We appreciate your input and will take it into account. Best regards,
David was very knowledgeable and engaging. We were 6 out of a group of 14 but David ensured we all survived!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the tour with David — he truly has a gift for making history come alive and keeping everyone engaged (and intact 😄). We're glad your group of six felt well looked after. Hope to welcome you again on another adventure soon! Warm regards,
