Jack was extremely knowledgeable and we got to take the time to enjoy things on our own time and not feel rushed . He offered to take many photos of me and my friend and let us call out any time we wanted to stop and questions / take photos! Biking in Amsterdam wasn’t nearly as scary as we’d thought it would be and we got the hang of it super quickly on our 3 hour tour ! Thanks jack !”
