This page is about city Lexperiences from that uncommon urban storyteller (“city seducer”?), tour creator, trainer, location spotter, coach, organizer, experience advisor and local guide.
We offer several, mostly urban, unusual experiences (Lexperiences) in both Paris and in Amsterdam.
Lex and the City acts thinks and acts unexpected, out of the box, urban, sustainable, active (or sporty), international, anti-cyclical, curious and customized.
We are urban locals. (and it shows.)
Bye from tempting Amsterdam from Lex & those other unusual city fans.

I guide in French, German, English and in Dutch. In Amsterdam and for challenges projects (photoshoots, incentives, unusual) still in Paris as well.
Real certainty lies into the trust of the unknown.

We are looking for both suppliers and customers who match our own profile. Free publicity, like recently (July 2024) in chapter 1 in the I paper in the UK, helps to reach that goal. (We are therefore grateful for this. And so will be our clients.)

The Amrath Hotel is a great place to show the guests. I knew the customers wanted something special inside to see about architecture of Amsterdamse school. The clients were thrilled by their experience inside. This was a great end of the tour and we thank @AmrathHotels. :)
