Guide Marianne was great. Not her fault but non-stop translating on coach and soooo loud., I think about 3 translations.
Zaanse Schans a disappointment. Toooooo many people in one place.
Clog demonstration interesting.
Cheese demonstration good but far too many people in tasting area.

This was a very small area that is very busy and there for the mills and shops are so small that you can not see much so not worth the money did nt even get to taste any cheese.

We absolutely loved this tour and will book it again should we return to Amsterdam in the future. Special shout out to Rick our tour guide who was very informative and put a smile on our faces from start to finish. Rene the bus driver was also brilliant. Overall 10/10!

The canal ride was not on this trip you had to rebook using the discount code. One of our codes didn't work and the poor lad who checked us in was getting frustrated with the technical difficulties of it all. Also it was just as well we had another day in Amsterdam because we wouldn't have had time.

von der einfachen Buchung bis hin zum "CheckIn" und Ausführung des gesamten Programms war ALLES zu unserer absoluten Zufriedenheit. Einzig, es könnte durchaus der Freizeitanteil im Dorf vielleicht etwas länger sein, um so entspannt z.B. Schifffahrt und Mühlenbesichtigung zu kombinieren

We had a great time on the Windmill tour to Zaanse Schans. We had plenty of time to roam the area, see wooden shoes be made, and cheese tour. We took the same trip the day before with another tour company. We went to three locations, but didn't have much time at each before leaving to the next.

Esperienza carina, la guida molto gentile, trasporto perfetto e ottima puntualità: purtroppo ho appreso solo dopo che la "degustazione" di formaggi la fanno tutti i negozi ad amsterdam che vendono i formaggi (consiste in assaggini microscopici di formaggi) quindi non si tratta di un servizio esclusi

Great little trip away from the city. The guide provided interesting trivia and information during the coach drive and arranged enough time for the set activities and free time. Recommended!
