Amsterdam: Jewish Quarter Walking Tour with Museum Entry｜Netherlands

Discover Amsterdam’s Jewish heritage on a private two-hour walking tour through the historic Jewish Quarter. Meet your local guide outside the Jewish Museum and begin with an introduction to the Jewish community that once flourished in this part of the city.

Walk to Waterlooplein, formerly at the heart of Amsterdam’s Jewish neighborhood. As you explore the square and its present-day market, learn about the people, businesses, traditions, and institutions that shaped the area.

Continue to the Hollandsche Schouwburg, a former theater that was used as a deportation center during the Second World War. Now a place of remembrance, it offers a moving perspective on the persecution of Amsterdam’s Jewish community.

Pause at the Holocaust memorial dedicated to the more than 102,000 Dutch Jews murdered during the Holocaust. Your guide will explain its symbolism, the stories it represents, and the continuing importance of remembrance.

Finish the guided walk at the Portuguese Synagogue, one of Amsterdam’s most important Jewish heritage sites. Here, receive your included admission tickets to both the Portuguese Synagogue and the Jewish Museum.

After the walking tour, explore the synagogue independently with an included audio guide. You can also visit the Jewish Museum at your own pace. Your tickets remain valid for seven days, giving you the flexibility to visit both locations when it best suits your schedule.
