A tour through De Hallen Amsterdam is a nice way to get to know more about the past and the present of the former tram depot.

Since 2010 De Dakdokters (The Roofdoctors) transform the roofs of Amsterdam. Let us show you some of our most interesting solutions and be inspired by our vision.

An excursion takes between 1,5 and 5 hours, depending on the number of roofs.
