Great experience. Was able to see the last of the tulips for the season. It was nice to have our own driver and go at our own pace.
We had a great experience with our guide, Ryan Singh. Saw all things Dutch, including beautiful tulips, windmills, wooden clog making, and cheese making on an amazing farm. Very knowledgeable and we never felt rushed. Plenty of time to see everything and to shop. We had the private tour and really appreciated taking everything at our pace.
This was an AWESOME full day! We had a great driver, Mesut, who not only drove us to each of four attractions but also took us straight to the front of any lines, walked us in, shared lots of information with us, answered all of our questions, and even took loads of great pictures! The luxury van was top-notch, making drives between great destinations very enjoyable. Tulip Experience was a fun tulip-filled surprise, Keukenhof Gardens were (not unexpectedly) beautiful, Zaanse Schans was so much more than expected, and our cheese farm/tasting was informative (& tasty)! A truly memorable day that I would DEFINITELY recommend for a true sampling of Dutch history & culture packed into one day!
Wonderful experience. Worth every penny. We needed a little extra TLC due to a super senior in our group and our guide didn't let us down. He made sure that we were treated like royalty (front of every line, never carrying a bag, opening every door, accommodating every request, etc..) every step of the way. This is the one excursion during our vacation in which we splurged and I'm really glad that we did.
Mesat was a terrific host. A must do experience!! a full skill tour and was very helpful with everything
Must DO… beautiful and SO interesting.
One of the best experiences of a life time! Hamza is very attentive and very knowledgeable. We highly recommend this tour!
This was a great experience! Gillio was an excellent guide, too. We had a great time taking cute photos in the tulips at The Tulip Experience and got to pick some tulips to brighten up our hotel room during our visit. Kuekenhof was beautiful and there were so many flowers. Then we went to see the windmills; there was a live demonstration of wooden clog making. We also went to Henri Willig to learn the cheese making process and try more than a dozen cheeses. I highly recommend this tour.
It packs a lot into one day and includes a fair amount of driving due to the locations. There was enough time to see everything at each location and meant we could then plan entirely different activities on our other days. Our driver Gillio not only took us to the head of the queues, but was knowledgeable, helpful and was around to take some photos, so all in all a great day out, albeit not on the face of it, a cheap option, but provided a completely self-governed day out.
We enjoyed our day with Emanuel. Great driver who provided perfect, hassle free service, and was very personable. Made our sightseeing day highly enjoyable. We did the Tulip Experience, Keukenhof Gardens, Zaanse Schanse Windmills, Cheese Tour, and a final stop in Volendam.
