Our tour guide Peter was excellent I've been to Amsterdam many times but this is a humbling and moving experience. It's a very informative tour with tons of hidden historical poignant reminders of Amsterdam during world war 2. Dylan Ireland

Thank you, Ben, for an informative and stimulating morning learning about the Netherlands' role and its people's experiences. If you are visiting Amsterdam, put this on your must do list.

The history of the transport of 100,000 Jews from the Netherlands to the concentration camps of Germany and Southern Poland is a sad tale. Yet it is a story well worth knowing and it is on this short tour that you will learn something about this. Our guide Ben came equipped with photographs and a handout - we went to... More

We were very lucky on our visit to Amsterdam last fall to have Peter as our guide for the Amsterdam WW II walking tour.

There was one other couple with us and consequently were able to ask a variety of questions not only pertaining to the subject but personal ones as well. Peter discussed Amsterdam... More

My husband and I had the pleasure of spending most of our first morning in Amsterdam with Peter Schaapman and three other visitors to Amsterdam learning about life in Amsterdam before, during and after World War II. Peter's passion for history and love for Amsterdam kept us engaged throughout the tour. We will never forget the interesting and personal stories... More
