Get your discount tickets for the Self Guided Tour of Amsterdam: A City of Trade and Tolerance, save up to 14% !
Overview
Amsterdam's canal houses lean drunkenly into each other — not from age, but because 17th-century merchants deliberately tilted them so hoisted cargo wouldn't smash the windows. That's the kind of story you will hear on this self-guided audio tour of Amsterdam, delivered through an app you control entirely. Across 15+ stops and 5km, you'll trace the world's first stock exchange, a secret Catholic church hidden in a merchant's attic, coffeeshop culture's surprising origins, and Anne Frank's canalside hiding place — all threaded through centuries of trade and tolerance. No fixed start time, no group to keep pace with. Perfect for first-time visitors, you can pause for stroopwafels or to to enter a site — the tour waits for you. If you'd rather understand a city than just tick off landmarks, this Amsterdam walking tour was made for you. Over 20,000 travelers have explored with our self-guided tours, backed by a full refund guarantee.

Itinerary
1. Stand where a humble river dam gave an entire city its name and see where Dutch Royals are crowned though they never actually wear the crown!
2. Stand at the site of the world’s first stock exchange and trace the roots of modern capitalism.
3. Find a 13th-century church standing unbothered in the middle of Amsterdam's most notorious neighborhood
4. Hear about an ordinary canal house with a secret church the whole city knew about but pretended not to see.
5. Pause before the writer whose pen name means "I have suffered greatly" — and find out what he exposed that made a nation squirm.
6. Discover the world’s first LGBTQ+ memorial. Step onto pink granite triangles whose three points each face a different chapter of persecution
7. Pause at Prinsengracht 263 and consider how a teenager's diary became one of the most translated books on earth.
8. Wander flower-named streets where refugees and artisans once packed into courtyards
9. Walk a street once so dangerous postmen refused to deliver mail — and see what replaced the needles.
10. Size up a medieval gate that hosted surgeons, painters, and Napoleon's horses.
11. Spot the hooks on the gables and work out why these canal houses were built to lean toward you on purpose
12. Slip through an unmarked door off a busy square into a courtyard where one woman kept a 600-year-old tradition alive until the very end
13. Browse tulip bulbs on floating barges and consider that a single bulb once cost as much as a house.
