Every year millions of people travel to Amsterdam to see where the Frank family hid from the Nazis. In this tour, we walk part of the route Anne took on her journey to the hiding place.
Travelling back in time to Amsterdam of WWII, we’ll experience Anne’s emotions during the dark days of the war. Using words from her diary, we will learn about Anne, the ‘secret annex’ & what she saw from her refuge.
The tour ends in a cafe where you will have a drink & enter the Secret Annex via the magic of a virtual reality recreation (made by the Anne Frank Foundation). Entering through the bookcase into the hiding place you'll see that unlike the actual house, the VR house has the furniture in place, giving a feel of how it was to live there in 1942-44.
There’s no crowds, you have the virtual house to yourself to explore at your own pace. We believe this is as close to the real thing as you can get, without stepping foot in the house. Ideal for those who can’t get tickets or access to the Annex
