Are Free Walking Tours Amsterdam suitable for children?

Q: Are Free Walking Tours Amsterdam suitable for children?

Yes. Free Walking Tours Amsterdam are generally suitable for children, especially the Classic Tour, Food Tour, and Anne Frank Tour. Many families enjoy joining the tours together while learning about the history and culture of the city. The tours involve walking about 3 kilometres through Amsterdam’s historic centre, so children should be comfortable with the distance. Strollers are also welcome on these routes. The Anne Frank Tour can be a meaningful educational experience, but it discusses the history of World War II, which may be emotionally impactful for younger children. The Alternative Tour includes topics such as drug policy and prostitution, which parents may find more appropriate for older children. The Dark Side Tour contains graphic historical stories and is therefore not suitable for anyone under 18.

The Classic, Food and Anne Frank tours welcome children. Please register children in your booking and make sure they are comfortable walking approximately 3 km.

The Anne Frank Tour discusses persecution and World War II, which can be upsetting for younger children. The Alternative Tour discusses subjects such as drug policy and sex work; parents should decide whether these topics suit their children.

The Dark Side Tour and Red Light Tour are for adults aged 18 and over.
