Very personal - Aarre was our guide and met us promptly at our meeting location. As an American living in Amsterdam very easy to understand. We were lucky as we were his only guests we received a one on one experience. A wealth of local knowledge and history of the area. Very enlightening and personable. Well worth it.

Davidus Cigar Shop, Shady grove road, Rockville - The staff at this location are friendly and provide excellent customer service. However, the lounge leaves much to be desired. The ventilation system is outdated or non-functional, and on some days, the lingering smoke makes it difficult to breathe upon entering. Customers often resort to using the side door to vent the excessive smoke due to the inadequate ventilation. Additionally, the lounge chairs are old, with ripped cushions, creating an unwelcoming atmosphere. Despite numerous complaints from customers, it seems these concerns have gone unheard. Unfortunately, this is the most disappointing Davidus location I’ve visited in the Maryland area.
