Amsterdam Plus

The locations were diverse and beautiful. The windmills were authentic and very unique, quaint seaside town, and everyone loves a castle. This was a great experience. Our tour guide Mike really took great care of us which made the day really worth it. Mike took pictures, video, dropped us and picked us up at the most convenient locations, explained everything, has a great personality and showed us several off tour locations as extras. Highly recommend getting a feel for the suburbs and countryside just outside of Amsterdam. Thanks Mike, great day!
