Made with love by travelers for travelers!
I loved Amsterdam from the moment I first wandered into the city in 2006.
Every year since then, I’ve returned to this beautiful city. I’ve lived there, have local friends, and even lead tours there now (fun fact: I was a professional poker player there too).
Amsterdam is one of the most visually stunning cities in the world. Old brick buildings tower over a patchwork of canals that flow past cobblestone streets and alleys. Wandering the streets as you zigzag through the city, you feel as though you might see members of the historic Dutch East India Company around the next corner.
It’s a truly magical place and I want you to experience it the way it’s meant to be experienced – the Dutch way!
I know the city like the back of my hand and have used my personal experience to write this direct and straightforward guidebook for people who want to be more than just a tourist.
This book shares the hidden secrets of the city and offers an authentic local experience: quaint cafes, beautiful parks, historic architecture, and overlooked sights.
It features insider tips on places to eat, stay, and play. I’ll give you local, off-the-beaten-path knowledge to help you move around the city, get away from the tourists, and find places listed in no other guidebook.

“I spent some time researching where to go and what to do on the internet before my trips but didn’t find anything as specific as the Nomadic Matt guides. I really appreciated all of the free information on his website and found the guides to be a great value. Not too expensive, and a good amount of knowledge to digest while traveling. I’ll buy another guide in the future when I’m traveling again!” — Jonathan
