“My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour with our guide, Inbal. She made the history walk interactive and informative. It was a lesson in the Jewish history that we were mostly unaware of. We wanted to dedicate part of our stay in Amsterdam to honor those from the past that perished as well as getting a more in depth understanding of their immigration story. We also appreciated the various statues and memorials honoring those that challenge the norm. Our Anne Frank “house” tickets were delivered the morning of the walk and we gained access without issue.”
