Want to know Amsterdam's hidden history? Want to impress your friends with fun facts whenever you're out for a walk? Or simply looking for an excuse to go on a Sunday adventure? This walking tour is for you.

On this walk through Amsterdam's inner city, we will discuss:

• Amsterdam's early beginnings
• The city's century-long struggle with water
• Its rise to a global power
• Its colonial legacy
• The Red Light District - past and present
• Coffeeshops

• WWII history

We will see the following highlights:

• The Hidden Church: Our Lord in the Attic
• The He Hua Bhuddist Temple
• The Medieval City Gate turned Anatomical Theatre

We will walk for about 2-2.5 hours, depending on traffic and the weather, and at the end, you'll never look at the city centre the same. I promise.

As a bonus, I've got plenty of personal recommendations to share. Coffee, beer, or sandwich: I know just where to send you!
