Nice tour to the country side - great option if you don’t have a car rental and want to get around with relative ease. Able to see highlights and spend time for lunch in a lovely small town. Really good option if you want to get out of the city

The tour to Zaanse Schans Windmills and Volendam is a must do excursion. A great day trip from Amsterdam offering several beautiful sights. I really enjoyed seeing the iconic windmills and visiting the fishing village. Lots of great photo ops! The tour price is very reasonable especially since it’s a small group tour. I liked that we spent just the right amount of time at each activity without feeling rushed. We got back to Amsterdam mid-afternoon so there’s still time to do other things. Our guide, Tol, was wonderful! He is very knowledgeable and attentive to the activity levels of all participants. I would definitely recommend this tour to my family and friends.

Small group tour is the way to go. Unlike the big coaches we were only four in the group. Ali , our guide was great. Warm, friendly and informative, added to a fun day out.

Even in the rain we had a great day w/Ali...he is a great tour guide, very knowledgeable. Saw windmills, met the brothers who hand make Dutch cheese and wooden shoes (very entertaining), went to a farm to see how they raise the cows for the cheese...and then a wonderful tour of a fishing village where we had a great lunch.

What a great tour! To start with it was very easy to find the meeting spot. People should take the free ferry from the Centraal Station and it’s just a quick walk left! We were in a van with 2 other couples who were lovely which always helps and our guide/driver Ali was AWESOME! So knowledgeable, sweet, and funny! Never rushed us and suggested a smaller town instead of Volendam which was not crowded and perfect! Thanks Ali!
