DLC Travel is a private guiding service based in Amsterdam, founded by Ravil — a licensed local guide with over 20 years of professional experience.
Originally from Moscow and living in the Netherlands for more than three decades, I combine deep historical knowledge with a personal, relaxed guiding style. I have been working as a professional guide since 2004, after earlier experience in international travel and aviation.
I specialize in private, tailor-made tours in Amsterdam, across the Netherlands, and selected destinations in Belgium. Each tour is designed personally, based on your interests, pace, and travel style — whether you prefer art and history, Jewish heritage, countryside landscapes, or simply discovering places at a comfortable rhythm.
All tours are completely private and flexible. I guide both walking tours and tours by car, adapting the itinerary to your wishes and needs. My goal is to make your visit informative, engaging, and enjoyable — without rushing, crowds, or standard scripts.
Over the years, I have worked with travelers from all over the world through established platforms such as ToursByLocals and GetYourGuide, as well as through direct private bookings. This experience has given me a strong understanding of international travelers’ expectations, clear communication, and consistently high service standards.
Why Choose a Private Tour with Me
With a fully private tour, you travel at your own pace and focus on what truly interests you. I work with individuals, couples, families, and small groups who value flexibility, personal attention, and meaningful experiences rather than standard group itineraries.
