Amsterdam Ajax Football Match with City Highlights Tour
Walk Amsterdam's iconic streets, then cheer Ajax on from the stands of the Johan Cruijff Arena — all with a local fan by your side.
This Ajax Amsterdam football tour blends an intimate city walk through Amsterdam's most celebrated landmarks with a live match experience at one of Europe's most storied football stadiums. You are joined throughout by a passionate local guide who brings both the city and the club to life.
Meeting at Amsterdam Central Station three to four hours before kick-off, you and your guide set out on foot through the heart of the city. The route takes in the canals, historic squares, and neighbourhood scenes that define Amsterdam's character, giving you a genuine sense of the place before the match-day energy takes over.
Along the way, you sample authentic Dutch street food — a warm kroket from Broodje van Dobben — and enjoy a craft beer from Brouwerij 't IJ, one of Amsterdam's most respected local breweries. The stadium leg places you beside your guide in the stands, surrounded by supporters who live and breathe the Ajax-DNA that produced legends such as Johan Cruijff, Marco van Basten, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
