Description:

The Dutch capital shows its contemporary face in the thoughtfully regenerated dockland district. Hop on a ferry across the IJ lake like a local, and explore the isles with a private guide. Learn about the exciting new architectural and cultural directions of the city.

The Passenger Terminal Amsterdam (often referred to as PTA) is a prime example of recent urban regeneration. After careful planning and execution, this busy port for naval vessels is now home to many striking buildings, delightful shops, and trendy bars. Meet your local guide on the promenade, which provides scenic views of the waterways surrounding the area.

The former eastern harbor area has been transformed into a trendy residential district along the river. Here, walk the KNISH dockyard isles and hear about how they've changed from a no man's land to a favorite haunt for artists and trendsetters.

Enjoy 2 ferry rides and let daily life unfold in front of you as locals commute on the routes. Head toward the NDS dockyard, enjoying remarkable views of the former harbor area and seeing a submarine and an oil platform-turned-hip-restaurant on the way.

Then carry on toward the striking structure of the EYE, which houses the Amsterdam Film Museum. With your guide, tour the building and explore an exhibition dedicated to cinematography.
