About Tour Guide Elvina S.

My name is Elvina. I have a Bachelor degree in International Tourism Management.


As a tour guide, I go beyond the typical tourist paths to show you the real essence of the city. Unlike traditional guides, I don't overwhelm with history. I do share historical insights, but my focus is on Dutch culture, local life, language, local food and drinks and showing both highlights and local gems to make your experience in Amsterdam so special.


Traveling and learning about new cultures are my passions. Been to 54 countries. Not surprisingly, I became a tour guide in Amsterdam to show it to the city guests and share my love for Amsterdam and knowledge about Dutch culture.
