ScreenTours guided tours have been specially prepared for you, a traveler eager for knowledge and experiences who wants to know and experience first-hand the reality of their destination, Amsterdam and the Netherlands. With an exceptional team, ScreenTours is fortunate to be able to offer you a unique, revealing and educational tour. The passion of our guides, together with their experience, will immerse you in the country from the first minute, showing you the triumphs and the darkest stages of its history. My name is Ana, creator of ScreenTours and your ambassador in the city of Amsterdam. The experience of a traveler, journalist and guide has taught me the importance of receiving history from various prisms in a city as complex as the Dutch capital. This city created the capitalist system in 1602, decriminalized homosexuality in 1811 and legalized prostitution in 2000. What better way to do it than on the ground, experiencing every corner like the authentic inhabitants of Amsterdam. ScreenTours will show you Amsterdam's past in order to contextualize its present. Are you in?
