about moses tours

Moses Tours  is a one-man show, and I mean that in the best way. When you book a tour with me, you’re getting a warm, boutique experience with someone who genuinely loves sharing the hidden gems of the Dutch countryside.

I’ve lived in Amsterdam for over 21 years, and since 2010, I’ve been guiding private tours through the stunning villages, lakes, windmills, and farmlands that surround the city. These aren’t typical city tours, they’re peaceful, scenic, and deeply rooted in local culture and history.

Every tour is guided by me personally and tailored to the people I travel with, whether it’s families with kids, couples, seniors, or small groups of friends. I adjust the pace, the stops, and even the stories, to make sure it fits your vibe and interests perfectly.
