About this activity
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Pass By: Dam Square, Amsterdam, North Holland Province
Amsterdam is a city like no other, known for its iconic landmarks and monuments and also for its coffee shops, bicycles, and prostitution.
As you’ll learn on this 2-hour guided walk, the city is also well known for its liberal laws, alternative housing arrangements, and being the first in the world to recognise marriage equality.
Delve into the alternative scene that makes Amsterdam a must-visit destination for visitors interested in subcultures. Explore such facets of Amsterdam society as the post-WWII housing crisis that led to the phenomenon of living in boats or in squats, and the counterculture movements that developed into today’s unmatched cityscape of unique coffee shops and street art.
This is the real Amsterdam - the side of the city that locals love, and that visitors come to experience. This tour is a must for anyone really wanting to really experience this unique city!
Pass By: Moco Museum, Amsterdam, North Holland Province
If you'd like to complement your tour with a closer look at street art culture, get our combo ticket to enter the Modern Contemporary Museum of Amsterdam (MoCo).
