Pim (and his sweet pup Herman) was a fantastic guide on our bike tour the other day!!! I felt very safe, since we were not biking in the most crowded parts of town, and I enjoyed seeing a slice of what it’s actually like to live in Amsterdam. I learned a lot about Dutch culture and norms as well. It was also really nice that Pim was taking photos and videos throughout to send us after, so nobody felt the need to have our phones out while biking. Would definitely do this tour again, and highly recommend to anyone looking for a slightly off-the-beaten-path activity! I was traveling solo and the small group of folks on my tour were all friendly! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

10/10 great local bike tour. Pim (Bill) was friendly and gave us a fun and insightful tour. His little dog came along for the ride as well, which is always an added plus!

I booked Pim's bike tour for me and my husband based on all of the Airbnb reviews. They were all very positive, but our experience exceeded my expectations. Pim is delightful, warm and loves his city. You can tell how much he enjoys sharing it with everyone. Of course, being a dog lover, having Hermaan along for the ride was a bonus! The whole experience was totally positive and I cannot recommend it highly enough! I know it will be a highlight of your trip to Amsterdam as it was for us!!

Fantastic tour, so enjoyable, informative and entertaining yet also safe and relaxing. Pim is a super pleasant person, full of good stories and great information / insights about Amsterdam. His loyal companion Hermann (pictured here) is the other star of the ride! This tour was a definite highlight of our stay in Amsterdam. Highly highly recommended!
