Maribel gentilissima e preparata!

La guida è stata coinvolgente e pronta a rispondere ad ogni nostra domanda, questo tour ci ha permesso di conoscere una parte di Amsterdam che magari passa in secondo piano rispetto ai soliti itinerari, rivelandoci delle informazioni molto interessanti.

Excelente tour

Tour imprescindible para conocer la historia judía en Ámsterdam. Maribel nuestra guía estuvo espectacular, y la sorpresa de la joyería fue excelente. Fuimos un grupo reducido y así es más cómodo. Genial
