Description
Many people think of Amsterdam as an adult paradise, but there are plenty of things to do for families with children. Let us take you on a walking tour of Amsterdam's narrow streets and canals and make history fun and exciting for your children. Enjoy an exclusive experience with fun stories, activities and attractions for the whole family!
Choose the 2-hour option to see the best selected highlights of Amsterdam’s Old Town and immerse yourself in local history and legends, such as the story of the Red Hood Grandma. One of the highlights will be exploring the charming courtyard of Begijnhof with its beautiful and typically Dutch medieval houses. You will also explore the historic Dam Square, learn about Dutch monarchs and admire the magnificent Royal Palace and the New Church. Another point of interest will be the former Jewish Quarter, where you will find the Rembrandt House, Spinoza Monument, and the National Opera & Ballet. There will be no time for boredom for sure!
Choose the 3-hour option to enrich your family adventure with a 1-hour canal cruise. Amsterdam is known as the “Venice of the North” with hundreds of waterways, so a cruise is one of the best ways to explore the city. Enjoy live commentary as you cruise through the principal canals, Amstel River and seven bridges. It is an ideal attraction for families with children.
Choose the 5-hour option to also visit the Tropenmuseum (Museum of the Tropics) with your Private Guide and learn about ethnography and different cultures from around the globe. It is one of the largest and best family-friendly museums in Amsterdam. Skip-the-line tickets are included so you will not have to waste time waiting in lines, as we know that children get easily bored when waiting. Enjoy fun and educational exhibitions that will teach your children about multicultural values and open-mindness!
