Alexandra

Founder, Guide and Storyteller

Hi there, I’m Alexandra! I’m a passionate storyteller who left the corporate world behind for a life filled with connection and adventure. Seven years ago, I quit my Sales job to follow my true calling—bridging the gap between my beloved Amsterdam and those who come to explore it. That’s how Who Is Amsterdam Tours was born.

I believe humor and meaningful stories bring people closer to the heart of this amazing city. When I’m not sharing Amsterdam’s secrets, I’m indulging in strawberries, cheering on my football team, travelling or hanging out with friends and family. Let’s connect and make your Amsterdam experience unforgettable!

Adam

Guide and Storyteller

I am a British-Swiss guide who moved to Amsterdam in 2022 to pursue my passion for excellent urban cycling infrastructure. This is my second time working as a tour guide. The first was during the pandemic, taking people digitally through the ancient streets of Oxford with a phone on a gimbal whilst praying the signal remained strong enough for Zoom.

I excel at trivia. Indeed, as a teenager I was the 3x history trivia champion of Switzerland; I am good in a pub quiz!:) With a background in anthropology, I love to unpick cultures and understand what makes them tick so as to share these discoveries with our many wonderful guests.

Bianca

Guide and Storyteller

I am is a multilingual writer and spoken word artist, a little bit from Italy and a little bit from all over. With a background in journalism and an unhealthy relationship to podcast listening, I love discovering interesting facts about the world and crafting them into stories to pester everyone I know with.

My passion for traveling and connecting with people from different cultures drives my work, making me a delightful companion for a stroll around the streets of Amsterdam and a chat about the marvels of this beautiful city.
