Our guide Jonas told the story of Anne Frank's life in a very sensitive and authentic way. In between, he gave us time to pause and let the events of that time sink in. I can only recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in the subject of the Second World War and is in Amsterdam. The tour lasted 2 hours for us. I would recommend taking the tour earlier in the day so that you can go to the museum afterwards. Unfortunately this was not possible for us as we were unable to get tickets at such short notice. The tour was so interesting for us that we would have liked to have had a look at the local area afterwards.

Our guide, Sylvia, was wonderful, passing on elements of history and memory that added a great deal of emotion to our 2-hour visit in French, based on the story of Anne Frank.Bernhard

We took part as a family of four with two sons aged 11 and 13 - our guide Jonas managed to familiarize us all with the difficult topic with his empathetic manner and enormous knowledge. The tour was interesting at all times and captivated us. Thank you very much for the great tour, we recommend it 100%!Lorena
