10 live collabsTour operators, hotels and brands across Amsterdam — every brand running a creator program right now.
Amsterdam is a goldmine for travel creators who focus on urban exploration, boutique aesthetics, and food culture. The current lineup here leans heavily into high-traffic hospitality and experiential tourism, making it perfect if your audience loves curated city guides or reliable travel hacks.
You will find a mix of boutique stays like Pillows and My Boutique Hotel, alongside social-first brands like BUNK and Generator Hostels. If you prefer capturing experiences, operators like Sherpa Food Tours and Unlimited Biking are actively looking for creators to document their local city routes. Whether you are aiming for room stays or sponsored excursions, the goal here is to highlight the local perspective.
Most brands in this market prioritize high-quality UGC and engaging reel content over massive follower counts. Expect a mix of gifted stays, comped tour spots, and the occasional paid partnership. Pitch your specific aesthetic early to stand out from the crowd of other travelers passing through the city.
Not necessarily. Many hotels and local tour operators value engagement and content quality over sheer follower numbers. A well-crafted pitch showing your previous work often beats a high follower count.
It ranges from 'trade' (comped stays or tours in exchange for content) to paid sponsorships. Always be clear about your deliverables—like how many stories or reels you'll post—to help them justify the cost.
In this city, most opportunities are one-off brand activations. However, if you provide great content, you are much more likely to be on their shortlist for future campaigns or events.
Aim for at least 3–4 weeks before your trip. Brands in Amsterdam are popular with creators, and their calendars fill up quickly, especially during the peak travel seasons.
Show them you understand their unique angle. Instead of a generic pitch, mention a specific tour—like a food tasting or bike route—and explain exactly how you would frame that experience for your specific audience.
