During this unique walking tour, we explore the Amsterdam of today and tomorrow through exciting and unexpected stories of curious urban design inventions, rebellious impact entrepreneurs who grew into global success stories, and creative responses to modern social and environmental challenges.

FAQs
What to bring?

Wear comfortable shoes.

Bring an umbrella and a raincoat if rain is forecast—or if you're unsure. Amsterdam is known for its changeable weather, and forecasts are not always accurate. Emergency rain capes are available at the start of the tour for €5 (cash only).
-
If it's a warm day, bring drinking water and consider sunscreen, a hat, or other sun protection.
Will the tour be canceled when it rains?

If you are caught out by the weather, emergency rain capes are available at the start of the tour for €5 (cash only).
For safety reasons, tours will be cancelled if the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI) issues a Code Red weather warning. In that case, all affected bookings will be fully refunded.
Will there be any toilet breaks?
As the tour lasts approximately 1.5 hours, we do not schedule dedicated toilet breaks during the tour.
To help you prepare, there are cafés with toilet facilities near both the meeting point and the end point of the tour.

Walking and mobility
Our tours involve walking at a moderate pace through Amsterdam's historic city centre.

We would be happy to discuss private tour options that can be adapted where possible.
