You’re on a 2-hour walking tour in Amsterdam, and by hour one, your shoulders are crying. That giant tote bag you thought was cute? Now it’s your biggest regret. And suddenly that charming cobblestone lane feels like a battlefield.
Walking tours are all about freedom and flexibility — but you’ll lose both if you’re weighed down. Keep it minimal: phone, water bottle, small snack, maybe a charger. Trust us, you'll want your energy focused on sights and stories, not carrying your personal version of a rock collection. Walk light, walk smart, walk far.
