Just a small correction about taking pictures in the red light district. It's not only frowned upon, but you could get in serious trouble if you photograph the working girls in the windows. You can take pictures of the surroundings like bridges or the old Church, but when pimps see that you're aiming for the girls, they won't hesitate to confront you aggressively.

Great information! We are just back from a first trip to The Netherlands and loved it! I wish we had seen your video before we left. We learned many of your tips first-hand😂 We stepped into bike lanes, almost walked into coffeeshop looking for a latte, showed up at a grocery store without cash, missed getting tickets to Anne Frank and Corie ten Boom, went too late to see tulips 😀 All of which we count as traveling adventures which we will bring back with us on our next trip to The Netherlands next year. And, we will be watching your vids for anywhere else we go, for sure! Thanks!

To be honest, I think that cycling is a fantastic way for tourists to explore our country! Maybe just avoid the busiest parts of the large cities ;)

This is great information. Maybe I am just old, but can you talk a little slower? ❤

[craigavery]

You speak at a speed appropriate for people your age. But I am 75. I slow down the playback speed to 75% to catch Every Valuable Tip and Word.

I Love Your Videos. Thanks for this channel! I hope to go in the fall.
