Great relaxing beautiful tour. Make sure you get Michael as your tour guide!

"It was a a nice relaxing day. Our tour guide, Michael, was very knowledgeable and funny. He truly cared about his team. He was always volunteering to take everyone's pictures. And answered all our questions. We wanted to leave him a tip at the end because he was excellent, but we don't carry cash. Hoping someday they will carry a card ready so those of us who don't carry cash can still tip."

Amazing Trip and Tour Guide 😀

"Literally one of the best day trips I've ever had, we got ample time to see and take pics of Zaans Schans and Geithoorn. What made it much more enjoyable is our tour guide Michael, very funny and always tries to engage people in every way possible!

He goes the extra mile and takes instagrammable pics to every person from the group capturing amazing views! He's also very knowledgeable and recommends top things to do in the area.

Much recommended with Michael and only Michael :D"

Perfect day

"Full-day trip to Zaanse Schans Windmills (in the morning) and Giethoorn (in the afternoon). Our guide Michael was top and the two places definitively worth seeing. We got to Zaanse early in the morning so almost by ourselves, while Giethoorn was more crowded (we were visiting on a Sunday)."

★★★★★

A "must do" experience!

"To be honest I was a little reticent about an organized trip like this as I have never been on one. I've done a lot of traveling but never in this format. I was pleasantly surprised! Everything was well organized the bus was immaculate and comfortable and clean. The scenery and locations Visited speak for themselves. They were absolutely stunning, interesting And educational. Michael our tour guide was a pure joy. Being a Dutch native he had an in- depth knowledge of history and made it fun and informative. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting the Netherlands."

Wonderful Weekend Break!

"It was my first trip to the Netherlands and it did not disappoint! We were contemplating on canceling the day tour booking but glad we did not! Michael, our tour guide was very warm and welcoming and entertaining too! We'd happily book another tour with Michael when we come back with kids in tow next time! Always wanted to go to Giethoorn and wow, what a quaint beautiful little village in the water! It's barely a comparison to Venice but my, Giethoorn have my heart for sure! Thank you for a wonderful day tour experience!"

The Michael experience

"Michael was a GREAT guide, sharing his passion and enthusiasm of Amsterdam and all thing Dutch along with his humour made the trip fanastic. And Michael is right about the jalapeno cheese....sooooooo good.

It was great to be at Zaanse Schans straight off because it was not busy while Giethoorn was busy at the end of the day the cruise of the canals was amazing. Can not recommend this tour and Michael enough!"

Terrific day trip

"A good way to cover these tourist spots in a day instead of trying to do them yourselves. The guide was friendly and explained well. They give you a lot of free time to explore on your own. Highly recommended."
