Work with us · Freelance guides

We are growing our guide team.

EcoEcho Tours runs small-group and private tours across the Netherlands, with regular school groups through the year. The calendar is filling faster than one guide can carry it, so I am looking for freelance guides who love this city and can hold a group the way we do: live, curious, and with a sustainability lens.

I am Antonis, founder and lead guide. You would work with me directly, not with a booking desk.

Freelance / ZZP €30 to €40 per hour, depending on experience Amsterdam based Regular school groups

How we guide here.

Before you apply, this is the part that matters. Guests can hear a recorded script anywhere. What we sell is the opposite of that.

  • Live, never scripted

    The tour is a conversation, not a monologue. Questions are welcome at any point, and the answer is honest, even when it is "I do not know, let me find out".

  • The day in front of us

    If a market appears, a bridge opens, or the weather turns, the route lives with the day. We use what the city gives us instead of marching past it.

  • A sustainability lens

    Water, bikes, energy, food: how this country actually lives with its environment. Not a lecture, a way of seeing that runs through the whole day.

  • Groups that feel small

    Whether it is eight guests or a school class, everyone gets seen. Names, questions, the quiet kid at the back. That is the job.

The role, plainly.

What you would guide

  • Sustainability-minded walking and city tours in Amsterdam.
  • School groups, our steadiest work: regular bookings through the season, mostly day programmes.
  • Occasional day trips and group programmes as the calendar grows.

Who you are

  • You love ecology and you actually know it: the water story, the bike story, how this country works with its landscape.
  • You are alive in front of a group. People leave your tours lighter than they arrived.
  • You are comfortable with children and teenagers, and you enjoy them on your tours.
Terms Freelance (ZZP) collaboration, €30 to €40 per hour depending on experience. You invoice us, you keep your independence, and the work grows with the season. For schools and partners reading this: yes, this is what it looks like when demand is healthy. We add guides so every group gets the same standard.

Introduce yourself.

No cover-letter theatre. Tell us who you are, what you have guided, and why ecology is your thing. Add a link to your CV or LinkedIn in the message.
