Hello, dear tourists and travelers, I am Maribel, I live in Amsterdam. I am a certified tourist guide and I also work as a hostess for events and cruises. I have a degree in Social Sciences from the Catholic University of Rome and I also have a Master's degree in Cinema. I speak 4 languages ​​(Spanish, Italian, English and Dutch). For me Amsterdam is an international city, an open city full of cultural and artistic events, a city full of legends and charm. What I like most about this city is the great diversity of events that I can find throughout the year, from music, song and film festivals to international food and drink festivals. My mission is to discover with you its historic center, where you will be able to nostalgically appreciate a city that over the years has been in constant change. A city that has lived through trade and navigation. We will look together for those most emblematic places to take a photo, one of my passions, it will surely be a very fun tour.

Tour description

Amsterdam Tour Overview:

From the mid-16th century, the Netherlands became home to a growing Jewish community, which settled mainly in Amsterdam, taking advantage of the relative religious freedom. The Dutch capital became the most important centre for Sephardim in Western Europe, and was considered the Dutch Jerusalem.

On this tour you will have the opportunity to learn about the culture, wealth and influence of the Jewish community in the city.
You will be able to see the most important monuments in the area, walk along the Jodenbreestraat (wide Jewish street), meet some important inhabitants of the neighbourhood such as Di Pinto, Rembrandt and Spinoza, discover the Jewish traditions that still accompany its inhabitants today, learn about the most important historical facts related to the Second World War and recognise the undoubted contribution of the Jewish people to the development of commerce in the city.
