Vanja has been a great driver. We visited the 3 places with enough time in them. He filled us in with lots of details.
We enjoyed the windmills at Zaanse Schans but could give Volendam and Marken a miss. We had to take a ferry to Marken at our expense, which was not mentioned in the tour description and did not allow any time at all in Volendam.
Nice view. But too sad Tulips flowers already harvest. Hope to visit again the Nice places. Luckily Ben as our driver due to raining day.
The driver Yavuls is very nice and helpful. The trip is optimized and convince with good arrangement. All as expected!
Thank you for your rating! We really appreciate your feedback and hope you will use our services again. We wish you all the best.
