See Dutch windmills, cheese farms, fishing villages, and reclaimed land on an affordable eight-hour tour from Amsterdam.

“Eight hours on a bus trip! But trips were short, washrooms readily available, and stops had time to take in the area. Juan (?) the guide was quite knowledgeable on the area. There were 5 stops, each different and unique stories. It was quite relaxing and enjoyable for a day out. The meeting place was a ten minute walk from the back of Centraal Station. Recommended for a day out in the countryside.”

“A very entertaining tour with Rob and Petra, despite the grey and initially wet weather the tour was very enjoyable. Rob provided excellent information about the country and the places of interest. I certainly learned a few things from the tour and the background to the Dutch way of life. Highly recommend this tour, to see a little of the Dutch countryside and local sights. The cheese farm was a informative and tasty stop.”

“Our guide Adonis was amazing and educational. He gave us a great overview of how Amsterdam Canals were formed and shared tip and recommendation at each stop. Zaanse Schans was beautiful and the clog and cheese experiences were very fun. Volendam provided a quiet relaxing stop with great shops and restaurants. Giethoorn was a fairytale where the roads were replaced with canals. I highly recommend this tour and ask for Adonis he’s fantastic!!!”

“o staff ao inicio estava um bocadinho sem perceber o que estávamos ali a fazer, porque talvez nao nos explicamos bem como estão habituados. Mas depois tudo correu super bem, foram simpáticos, atenciosos, o guia inclusive brincou e desafiou as crianças a interagir na experiência. nao achei bem foi as crianças (9 e 4anos) pagarem tanto como os adultos, nao e o costume de acontecer. de resto tudo top”
