Real Life Local Advice

Guidebooks, apps and blogs do provide you with lots of useful information, but they are not able to listen to your wishes, give you personalised advice and help you with problems you locally encounter.

If you do not get a help from a local person Amsterdam might discourage you and it might cause you having bad experience here. Do not let it happen cause the city is actually amazing, one of the kind and as for me one of the most interesting you might find. You just need to know where to go and how to get around here!

Nothing really beats having a human point of contact when arriving here and later during your stay. We will have a drink or coffee in the neighbourhood of you accommodation and talk about your interests, wishes and recent travel experiences. We will together create a customised itinerary for your time in Amsterdam, which you will experience on your own. If you encounter any problems during your stay, you can always contact me.

Don't be afraid to ask questions - I'm here to help you make the most of your visit.

Hi there adventurers! I am Martijn, a 29 year old guy living at one of the beautiful canals of Amsterdam. I just love traveling and I am always looking to discover those great little places myself. Back at home in Amsterdam as well as when I am abroad it's just a magic feeling when you've found a great restaurant, coffee bar or small park yo hang out in. The only thing better than discovering a new spot is to share this with one of your travel companions or with friends who will be visiting the same city. It really makes me feel good when I can let my friends and family experience traveling the way I do. This exact reason is why I've become one of Vayable's Insiders. Full profile

Martijn was a wonderful host for me and my friends on my first trip to Amsterdam. Usually I like to visit the well known highlights of a new city, but this time we wanted to discover the side of Amsterdam beyond the Red Light District, Dam Square and all famous museums. Martijn definitely was the right for helping us finding tailor made spots to visit. He is an easy going and friendly guy that knows his city very well! After we met the first time, we talked to him a couple of times more on the phone to get some additional advice. Even those times, he responded nice and quickly. Thanks for all your help Martijn, you definitely made our holiday better then we could imagine. Highly recommend!

Martijn was a wonderful guide on our first trip to Amsterdam! We scheduled to meet with him only a few hours after we arrived and we think it was the best money we spent on our trip. He helped us with navigating, gave us helpful tips on where to get delicious food, and tailored our experience to where we wanted to sightsee. After leaving us, we got an email from Martijn with a summary of the locations we talked about and some other suggestions. I highly recommend hiring Martijn as a guide for your trip to Amsterdam!

Martijn picked an amazing coffee bar around the corner of my hotel to meet. It was nice to talk with him about Amsterdam and the way he is living his life there. He came up with some awesome things to do in Amsterdam that perfectly match my interests and wishes. I recommend meeting with him to all Amsterdam visitors.
