5 star service with Sunny

Published on Jun, 2024

Got a 5 star service! My experience was spectacular from beginning to end. Sunny was very courteous and professional all along the tour. He shared his knowledge on history related to the destinations and some side notes on the people and the culture in Netherlands. He had an answer for all my curious inquiries and made sure that I didn’t miss any presentation or film where I could find more information on the places we visited. I’m very pleased with my selection and feel very lucky that I got to tour with Sunny!

Countryside trip in Netherlands

We really enjoyed the variety of the trip. The stop at organic Jersey cow farm of Henri Willig. Lots of cheese tasting. Enjoyed Zaanse Schans and went into the paint windmill. Enjoyed walk and lunch at Volendam. Trip was well paced and our guide, Gavin, was great.
