Highlights

Discover one of the most meaningful things to do in Amsterdam on this walking tour through the Jewish Quarter, tracing Anne Frank’s story and the World War II history that still shapes this neighbourhood today. Led by a local guide in a small group, you’ll walk the same streets Anne Frank once knew, hearing real stories, seeing historic photos, and learning what daily life was like during the Nazi occupation — history told where it happened. The route begins near the Portuguese Synagogue. Hear stories of resistance at the Dokwerker monument, reflect at the Holocaust Namenmonument, and pass the iconic Westerkerk, whose bells Anne Frank once heard from her hiding place. The tour ends near the Anne Frank House (outside visit only; entrance not included), leaving you with a deeper understanding of Amsterdam’s wartime history and the resilience of its people.

About Amsterdam

Amsterdam rings its golden-age centre with tree-lined canals, gabled houses and bridges, packing great art and easy cycling into a compact city.

The canal ring, dug in the seventeenth century, curves around the old centre in concentric arcs: Herengracht, Keizersgracht and Prinsengracht, lined with tall merchants' houses. The Jordaan, just west, is a maze of small canals, courtyards, brown cafés and independent shops, and the Anne Frank House stands on the Prinsengracht at its edge.

Top-ranked sights in Amsterdam: Amstel River, Skinny Bridge (Magere Brug), Anne Frank House.
