About this experience
Have you visited the Anne Frank House? Now you can follow her story to Westerbork Concentration Camp. Here we widen our scope from this one family to the 102000 Jews and 245 Roma deported through this camp to the death camps in Germany. The core of this tour is a 3 hour visit to the Westerbork Camp and its Remembrance center. Because of driving times to Westerbork we have added stops half way for interest and relaxation. Total tour time from start to finish is 8-9 hours. We start at Anne Frank's original house in Amsterdam and half way on the road to Westerbork we visit another hideout, the Hidden Village in the woods at Vierhouten. On the way back we take the route across the Closure Dam so you can see one of the great waterworks of the Netherlands.

Het Verscholen Dorp
On the original site in the woods of Vierhouten the Hidden Village has been reconstructed. It housed people in hiding who were helped by the resistance. Although many people knew of its existence it was not betrayed. The village was accidentally discovered by hunting Germans and raided. People that could not flee were shot. The South-African writer Irma Joubert has written a novel around this place "Het meisje uit het verscholen dorp". Unfortunately not yet available in English.

Kamp Westerbork
After a visit to the Remembrance Center exhibition we take the shuttle bus to Westerbork Concentration Camp. Westerbork was a transit camp used as a staging area for the deportation of about 102.000 Jews and 245 Roma. To deceive the people of the fate that awaited them the conditions in the camp were less severe. There were no beatings and killings. It is estimated that more than 300 people managed to escape the camp.

Afsluitdijk
After the terrible flood of 1916 it was decided to seal off the Dutch Southern Sea. The Closure Dam was build between 1927 and 1932. We cross the closure dam and stop at the statue of its architect, dr. Lely for refreshments and a look around the Closure Dam monument.

Incredible and Moving Experience
Our brilliant and engaging guide, Sjoerd, guided us through the final days of Anne Frank in Holland after she and her family were betrayed from hiding in Amsterdam by the Nazis. We learned that they were sent to the Westerbork transit camp where Jews and other enemies of the Nazi Reich were classified and dispatched in freight wagons to the various death camps like Auschwitz. Our tour began with a stop at Anne's first home in Amsterdam, a typical apartment that preceded her family's two years in hiding, followed by the trip to the Westerbork National Memorial Museum. This camp was built by the Nazis to be a calming prelude to the terrible journeys these people faced. We learned that the camp was designed to pacify the prisoners into believing that they were being sent to places for work rather than almost certain murder at their destinations. Our guide was very kind and treated us to expert information throughout our journey. Thank you, Sjoerd!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review William. We are glad you enjoyed the tour.

Why this scores 48
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Westerbork Concentration Camp from Amsterdam - A Private Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amsterdam.
How much does Westerbork Concentration Camp from Amsterdam - A Private Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $800 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Amsterdam usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Westerbork Concentration Camp from Amsterdam - A Private Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Amsterdam is not rushed.
Is Westerbork Concentration Camp from Amsterdam - A Private Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Amsterdam, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Westerbork Concentration Camp from Amsterdam - A Private Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Westerbork Concentration Camp from Amsterdam - A Private Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Westerbork Concentration Camp from Amsterdam - A Private Tour?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Amsterdam can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Amsterdam and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Westerbork Concentration Camp from Amsterdam - A Private Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Amsterdam within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Amsterdam?
+
On Outty we rank every Amsterdam experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Amsterdam Canal Cruise with Local Guide and Small Group, Guided Bike Tour of Amsterdam's Highlights & Hidden Gems, Amsterdam: Luxury Canal Cruise including Cocktails & Snacks. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Amsterdam?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Amsterdam?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
