This charming tower is a true hidden treasure of Amsterdam. It’s located on the Zuiderkerkshof, around the corner from the Rembrandt House and Waterlooplein. A beautiful part of Amsterdam near the Amstel with small draw bridges. Our guided tours consist of small groups with a maximum of 10 people. Guided tours last around 30 minutes and will be given by our cheerful student-guides from Amsterdam.
Visits in the tower are always in the form of a guided tour.
