“Elyzabeth designed an amazing tour for us in Amsterdam east. Our group was amazed by her vast knowledge, her passionate and engaging personality and of course the inspiring stories about the bad ass women in Amsterdam’s history! Thank you so much!”

“Elyzabeth took us on a fascinating historical tour with interesting stories of the women who helped shaped Amsterdam today. Just enough scandal to keep my teenagers engaged, as well as bringing European history to life and making it relevant. Elyzabeth remained enthusiastic and energetic throughout the tour, recommending books and other places to visit. Thanks again Elyzabeth.”

“This was a great tour! Elyzabeth masters her subject matter, is very sensitive and adaptable to the group’s needs, and communicates her passion with both joy and detail. Her tour is a great way to get to know more about the city and its great history through a different, fresh perspective. It’s a much more approachable way to discover Amsterdam then the annoying tour groups you’ll see all over city center – take a chance on this original experience! Thank you again Elyzabeth, and good luck in all your endeavors xx”
