We thoroughly enjoyed our day in the countryside of the Netherlands. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. We absolutely loved exploring these smaller communities. I feel like it was a great look at the Dutch culture.
Enjoyable day - lots to see!

Lovely day! The tour guide Derek was knowledgeable and kept us engaged throughout the entire day. We felt like the day flew by but at the same time was relaxing, got time to see a lot of sights and enjoyed it all. Favorite part of the tour was the cheese tasting - such variety of cheeses! Definitely recommend.
Great time!

This was an incredible tour and was a nice change of scenery from Amsterdam which is more urban. Our guide Evelyn was very friendly and shared really interesting information about each place, and our driver Eric made the drive very comfortable. Seeing so many different things within one tour was amazing, and would absolutely recommend this to anyone visiting Amsterdam!
Awesome

Wonderful guide, so engaging and interesting... but too many expensive tourist trap stops and not enough time at the lovely Volendam
