A must for first-time visitor - Our guide is a student of history. The entire 90 minutes waa veey informative as he explained every event that led to Anne Feank's amazing story. He also took to a few site and pointed out street markings that I never would've recognized by myself. It was an amazing experience and definitely worth the price tag.

Fascinating history, yet accessible for kids - Our tour guide was wonderful, knew so much history, and was excellent with all my kids' questions. We learned a lot about the Frank family, but also about many other contemporaneous stories. Great alternative to the Anne Frank Museum.

Good tour better explanation of physical requirements required - Tristan our guide was very informative. My only complaint is that the level of exertion required by the tour was not explained in the description. For a 70+ individual with a bad back, the tour was difficult
