Wonderful half day tour to the cutest towns - Zaanse Schans Windmills and Volenda

Published on Mar, 2025

Rob was an excellent guide who gave us enough history and information on our half day trip to Zaanse Schans Windmills and Volendam. We had a pleasant day exploring the sites with a quick tour of the clog and cheese making factory without any pressure to purchase anything. We had sufficient time to explore the sites and take all the IG worthy photos. Thanks again Rob you were great. And say hello to Kevin our driver too.

Fun and Fabulous experience

Published on Jan, 2025

Loved this day trip out of Amsterdam exploring the other little towns and villages and seeing the windmills. It was a very good well paced tour although I would prefer a smaller group, this was good value for money. Saw a lot Loved the village of Volendam the most. It was the highlight for me Getting close with the clog makers and also cheese tastings and windmills was also good to see the Netherlands at its best.
